Civ 6 tile blending
For mountains, you could look into something like this library for building locally computable dendrite-ish fractal functions. Civ mountains seem to follow a dendrite pattern, in that they comprise a chain of linked peaks that form a ridge or line, with receding inverted ridges carving gullies down the sides, so the linked library might at least give you some ideas on how to construct them. This feature map can be super-imposed using a circular blend mask on each hex that includes a mountain.
