7.113500 - Mayan + Tribal Expansion + Reform the Bureaucracy + Central Arbitration + Central Armories.
7.183200 - Nahuatl + 0% Doom + Tribal Expansion + Warrior Ranks + Extend Pochteca Obligations + Open up Sumptuary Restrictions + Legal Reform. 7.383500 - Mayan + Tribal Expansion + Reform the Bureaucracy + Central Arbitration + Central Armories + A Unified Army. I'm also really surprised by how well Fetishist is doing, but I was just barely aware of its existence. I'm mostly surprised by how low Hindu got ranked. F Tier - Confucian with low harmony (either harmonizing everything or converting peasents to your faith will do that). C Tier - Hindu, Protestant, Hussite, Shinto + Isolationism, Fetishist + most cults, Buddhist + high karma (basically impossible). B Tier - Sunni, Shiite, maxed out Coptic, more realistic Orthodox, Fetishist + Mazdayasna (really hard to get), Buddhist + neutral karma (basically impossible). A Tier - maxed out Orthodox with icons (hard to achieve early), Ibadi, Catholic as Curia Controller (hard to do reliably). S Tier - Fully Reformed New World religions (for above everything else, but you need to get there first). So I stand behind these rankings less than behind my idea group rankings. special estates (Hindu / Muslim) are not scored.
religions also get custom decisions (Christians get a lot of benefits here), special government types (Muslims get bonuses), ability to take over China (pagans/Eastern), and so on - none of that is scored. ability to become HRE emperor is not counted. I only scores persistent bonuses, so Papal interactions (pretty good) and Anglican buttons (awful) are excluded from this. religions don't just have static bonuses, usually they have some mechanics, with conditional bonuses, and each works differently. peasants with different idea groups don't hate you. countries with different idea groups don't hate you. you can pick any idea groups as any country, not so much with religions. There are a few issues with this approach, beyond the usual limitations:
I used same bonus scoring as with idea groups.
