I heard they call it Le Big Mac

The Moorish spawn is an expression of successful Arabs, not a consequence of it. There is no way to expect Arabia to conquer or even reach Iberia by the Moorish spawn date, especially not as an AI. You could "script" Arabia more to ensure this happens, but what is the point of making something...

Can you upload a save of this situation?

whoa are you trying to get me canceled

Yes, building an improvement on rainforest does not clear it. I don't want to allow traversal of rainforests just with roads, that would make it to easy to pass through it.

Do you actually have the prerequisite promotion? Formation requires Combat II iirc.

It is 580 turns currently, but yes. They are multiples of 1.5 and 3 respectively.

I think that's a very good way of putting it. Perhaps unsurprisingly I am following a lot of discussions about the nature and appeal of historical 4X games on places like Three Moves Ahead and Soren Johnson's podcast and one thing that keeps coming up on why historical 4X games are so popular...

Oh yeah, the changing appearance of Civ3 leaderheads was a cool feature. At least it tried to address the absurdity of "Lincoln in the Stone Age" but I guess it might also draw more attention to it. They probably dropped it in later games as LHs became more demanding to make. Also I want to say...

The terrain feels low contrast and undersaturated to me, but to be clear the basegame terrain in Civ4 is also not very good. I'm sure there are good mods for it. The leaderheads are very good, but my concern with them is that they make modding very hard. The requirements to create a new Civ5/6...

Can you upload a save of that situation?

Oh, I want to add another thing that really bothers me about both Civ5+ and Humankind. It is incredibly cramped in those games. Civ5 shrunk down the scale of the world by "unstacking" units and creating the carpet of doom where the entire world was filled with units. Civ6 decided to learn from...

I don't recall adding it, so it either came from Rhye or someone else contributed it along the way. I do my best to verify the additions to the map, but I never did a comprehensive effort on the existing city name map nor do I necessarily can vouch for every addition that has been made.
