Shaka is ridiculously easy to bribe to DOW someone else, which is what I do all game long

Happens sometimes, I had a game where an infuriating number of cities were one tile from coast. I gave up on domination victory based on that

Slower influence decay would be a nice incentive

Just bad pick with map creator. I had a game just now where the only pearl was near a one tile island in the middle of the ocean, and so of course all my cities ended up wanting pearl for wltkd

I play immortal, emperor is too easy and deity is just too much work/micromanaging

I hated AC, so I doubt I'll want to play BE

I never liked runaways - some maps you have no way to find them and by the time you can you're already doomed. Not fun

Once again a screenshot of your empire would be very useful. Otherwise the advice might be meaningless

I'd restart, mostly because I find it very boring to play these isolated start games. This is especially the case if as you said the shallows don't give you access to anyone.

Your military is woeful, I'd get more updated units as insurance. If Polynesia decides to DOW you I think you are bye bye

Someone from Firaxis should read this and just fix the damn tech tree according to it.

In my most recent game I failed to found a religion because the last one was taken by the AI while I was waiting for that random dice roll to go my way - waited 7 turns and no luck, and the last one was gone in the meantime. It's also annoying that when you do create that GP you lose all the...

I got two barb camps, one map, and a gold.....and I think one tech
