Hi people!
I came to civ4 after a 2-3 years of no civving, and I love it
I play for 3 weeks now, and finished 5 games.
Since I'll be playing a lot (I'm unemployed, possibly forever), I'll use this thread to tell my tale of supremacy..
Now, for my submitted games (what I remember from them):
Game1 (Hof game #13500) {Settler/Duel/Marathon} : My first civ4 game I wanted to finish at any cost... The cost was the most terrible global warming in history.. I barely had a city of size 10 with all the deserts at the end. I was on pangea...
Game2 (Hof game #13528) {Settler/Duel/Marathon} : Was better, after understanding the GW mechanism, but was still quite experimental.. I was still on pangea learning how the borders change, and learning placement of cities so as not to get into domination..
Game3 (Hof game #13564) {Chieftain/Duel/Marathon} : I finally tried lakes, mistakenly on chieftain.. and during this game understood some principles of mapfinder and of which MAP I'm really looking for.. ;} was a nice game of civ learning.
Game4 (Hof game #13583) {Settler/Duel/Marathon} : The booga has become experienced and make the correct decision (so far..) to play on continents with low sea.
This way I can catch more sea, which is not in domination, but is with rich resources!
Perfect it was not, and it gave me some great comparisons of the value of food for a scientist vs the value of a town for commerce.
In this game, I switched from farming to towns a bit after I got my +1 food from biology. It was almost 1000 points far from the Hindi number 1
Game5 (Hof game #13601) {Settler/Duel/Marathon} : I beat Hindi by farming my way to large cities and future techs. I used mapfinder on quarry, and got marble, but NOT stone. Didn't have stone the whole game, but the continent I was on was 60% of territiry, and I got 3 (!) settlers from huts by scouting it (below 2 I would look for a better start ).
It was also the first time I did the Sid Sushi corp (along with Alum).
This is what I remember from these games.
Notice - I remember more of the 5th game, which ended yesterday, than all the others..
Also, I play with no random events, but I will learn them all soon... I hope, to know what I can try and get.
