Vox Populi with limited unit stacking: several combat units per tile, stack defender selection, cavalry flanking, collateral damage from siege and bombardment, and an AI that plans and fights with stacks.

This is an early pre-release. Expect rough edges and start a new game with it.

The full changelog lists the changes in every release.

What is in the package

Civ5StackMod-0.1.0.zip is a complete, modified copy of Vox Populi (EUI version). It is based on Vox Populi 5.4.6 plus upstream changes up to d79cd781c, built from commit 9e190b77f. It replaces a normal Vox Populi installation; you cannot have both at once.

Requirements

  • Civilization V with Gods & Kings and Brave New World, on Windows.
  • The "43 Civs" variant and the no-EUI variant are not supported.

Install

  1. Download Civ5StackMod-0.1.0.zip and extract the whole zip to any folder.
  2. Close Civilization V.
  3. Double-click Install.cmd. If it cannot find the game, it asks you to choose the folder. If Civ V is installed under Program Files, right-click it and choose "Run as administrator".
  4. Start Civ V, open MODS, enable these four mods and click Next:
    • (1) Community Patch
    • (2) Vox Populi
    • (3a) VP - EUI Compatibility Files
    • (4a) Squads for VP

The installer moves any existing Vox Populi or EUI files to a StackMod-backup-... folder in your Civ V user data folder; nothing is deleted and saves are not touched. Install.cmd -DryRun shows what would be done without changing anything. README.txt in the zip has manual installation and uninstall steps.

Notes

  • All players in a multiplayer game need this exact package.
  • Rules and AI behaviour are configured in MODS\(1) Community Patch\Database Changes\StackingConfig.xml. The Docs folder in the zip describes how stacking plays and each setting.
  • Civ5StackMod-0.1.0-symbols.zip holds the PDB for debugging crash dumps; players do not need it.
