SV T337 1916AD - How many cities did you settle or capture? Settled 7 or 8 in Europe and Africa. Stole a settler from Georgia early on. Took 3 from Lautaro. Loyalty flipped 4. Took one CS. - What did you prioritize for research and policies? Research whatever I'd got Eureka's for with a...

Cultural Victory -Turn 261 - 1750AD Had a bit more idea what to do this time after my first ever CV in the last GotM - How many cities did you settle, or capture? Settled 10. 8 for most of the game and another couple later on (for extra theatre districts) - What did you prioritize for...

Culture Victory Turn 258 - 1735AD This game was a lot of first for me. It's the first GotM I've played since Civ 6 was released, it's the first ever Rise and Fall game I've played (Governors, Era, Mongolians were all new). It's also the first time I've ever tried for a Cultural Victory. Given...

Hi What is the GotM policy on patches. I'm currently half way through GotM1 and the patch releases last night. Should I wait before I update? Or can I patch now and carry on? Do I need to state this in my score? GotM2 started just a few days ago so I'd like to play that 'patched', but some...

You may or may not like the zombie genre, that's fine. I initially thought of a more fallout-like world with barbs being fluffed as raiders etc. but I weren't sure it matched the zombie premise for the sheer unrelenting press of inevitable destruction. They way I'm thinking of things though it...

I was playing Civ 6 the other night and I had a thought that the format of Civ would lend itself really well to a post-apocalyptic game; specifically the zombie apocalypse (we all know it's coming). I'm thinking a game where raging Zombies are everywhere all the time, technologies have to be...

Finished this last night. Haven't uploaded the save yet but I'm gonna post anyway. Win on turn 261, which is really good for me and I hoped would be competitive but it looks like there's already 2 people ahead of me out of a very limited number of submissions. Oh well, I tried :) And it was fun...

I settled, as it seems most people did, on the hill next to the dyes. Built monument-scout-warrior. Policies Liberty-Free Settler-Free Worker. For my second city I decided to head north and settled next to the 2 cows, then bought the tile with the wonder on. This gave me a tile I could work for...

I understand I have no score as I lost to conquest, but why do I have 0 playtime?

That's freakishly similar to my game. Settled Rome in the same place, the same long road up to Edirne, same 3 Ottoman cities puppeted, only settled one city, I think even the same social policies (I maybe did commerce instead of honor). The only difference seems to be my war stalled against...

Game: Civ5 GOTM 33 Date submitted: 2012-04-06 Game status: Culture Victory Game date: 1903AD Turns played: 323 Base score: 936 Final score: 1462 Time played: 11:30:00 I bet I did this differently to everyone else, but it went great and I think if I was more experienced in closing out a game I...

Game: Civ5 GOTM 32 Your name: misterjoshua Game status: Diplomacy Victory Game date: 1972AD Turns played: 392 Base score: 934 Final score: 1197 Time played: 16:15:00 Submitted save: misterjoshuaGotM32Diplowin.Civ5Save Renamed file: misterjoshua_C503201.Civ5Save My game went badly, and I almost...

I recently got a peace deal from Alexander of 13,000 gold, 300 gold per turn, 2 cities and all his resources. I graciously accepted :)

Haha. I do actually know exactly where my diplomacy went wrong. I DoW's Gandhi after previously DoFing him. Being somewhat of a CiV novice I didn't realise quite what an impact this would have. I certainly didn't think it would cause all Civs to hate me for the next thousand years! I have had...

I'm playing a single player at the moment (the current GotM actually) and it's basically all over. I've been in a constant state of defensive war for over a thousand years, against multiple opponents, and my score has suffered irrecoverable damage. To give you some idea I'm currently in the...
