I really want to try this mod over lan, but I can't select it in jdh's MP mod manager. Is it possible at all to use it in multiplayer?

By the look of it a planet takes up 7 tiles. Maybe for Civilization 6 they should have cities and resources take up 7 tiles as well so that units can maneuver better, allowing for better tactical combat and AI.

Interesting how most people are voting based on what they want to roleplay as, whereas I also enjoy doing that but care more for which affinity will be the most fun to wage wars with. For that reason I voted supremacy, because it's apparently optimized for tactical warfare which will make for...

Civ5 just needs more balance patches, such as making Honor and perhaps Piety starters more viable, nerfing the National College and make lesser civs more competitive (especially for playing on Deity). Sid Meier said 'he'd fix the game if there's a best strategy', so I think these changes are in...

Yes that is what happens, it's called tidal locking. Here's an interesting documentary about one such planet and how extraterrestrials might look like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYahlm5ag40

I just read about discovery today. Would be interesting if Beyond Earth will feature an 'eyeball' earth-like exoplanet.

I agree that it's probably best to keep it simple, so what if you just divide up every hex tile into 4 just parts for units. This means there are 4 more tiles for units to maneuver which by itself will make the map far less crowded. The movement points then probably will have to be doubled...

I wonder if a system could work where within the main large tiles grid there's another grid with smaller hexes for military units. That way there's much more space for military units to maneuver and military squadrons would be on a more realistic scale compared to cities that still take up 1...

Very interesting strategy. I've played around with a two city honor start with the Celts a while ago, but struggled a bit getting an early Pictish Warrior army to take a capital. I thought at first that you picked the Dutch because when you conquer your enemy's lands you get to spam Polders to...

Feitoria-5 Polder-3 Terrace Farm-8 Polder tiles are just so powerful and often enough you can take an enemy city or city state to build even more.

Nice patch, though I would've liked to see more improvement to the Honor tree so it can more often be more desirable than Liberty when going for conquest. It's IMHO disappointing that it's just so much easier to go Liberty or even Tradition and start going at war with Artillery when you've...

Out of the few games I've played BNW I've won a Deity game with Assyria, Standard, Earth map and 2 extra AI. I killed the first AI with 2 siege towers and the second AI with 2 siege towers and 3 trebuchets. I prioritized the NC after teching siege towers, because I wasn't planning to rely solely...

The first 3 great works of writing I obtained through taking over cities from enemies and since I was getting many military units from military city states I didn't get to make use of the extra 10 experience points until I started to build frigates. That extra experience does help to get the...

Additionally I suppose you can sell cities to encourage the AI to war on each other as well. Although personally I don't like to exploit the AI that way :p.
