    Lost the thread

    I have searched and searched and I can't find the thread. It was basically a guide that included screenshots of how to win on a lower level like Prince playing as Ramasses II. It generated a lot of screenshots and discussion. Since I am still noob I need to check it out in more detail. Problem...

    Putting Monty in his place can be fun :)

    In my latest game he declared on me so many times despite shared religion that his best move was to stop breathing as my boot crushed his neck. Monty is beyond irrational. His personality is so "broken" and anti social I can't imagine a game where he doesn't do something that is against his own...

    Some forgotten-but-important technologies

    Concept of zero is one thing, having a symbol for it is another, and actually developing the base 10 number system is yet another.

    Spy Poisoning

    Just curious. I was playing the slowest of games and my capital city of 16 got poisoned. The poison effect starved the city back to population 1 and the poison was still there a number of turns after having died back. Is it supposed to be so evil? It seems to me that this is far too powerful...

    Abandon City?

    Earlier in this thread a claim was made that the AI can't "see" the resources on the map. I find this almost laughably unbelievable. Is there any proof that they AI truly doesn't "know" where the resources are? Is it programmed to ignore them until it has researched the tech? I can't believe it...
