Holding grudges against AI is one of the fun parts of the game, as far as I'm concerned. For me these days it's Peter. Because I really like having a religion, and as much as the AI normally seems to cheat when it comes to pumping out missionaries, Russia pumps out way, way more, and they will...

I didn't know about the Genoa thing before, but this post goes into it a bit.

Ooh. I'm not sure what this would look like in implementation, but I really enjoy this idea.

So there are a few threads running about concerning mechanics and graphics for Civ 7, which are certainly important (personally, I like the graphics style choices they made for Civ6, especially once they got into later DLCs, and think they're already showing that they'll age better than any...

Ooh, yeah. Germany and Japan are up there for me too (with Ludwig and Tokugawa respectively, at least. Hojo Tokimune isn't bad, of course, but Tokugawa is excellent for this sort of thing. Frederick Barbarossa just doesn't interest me at all.) I start up a lot of England games and seem to be...

So I'm on one of my recurring Civ kicks again (happens every few months, I get utterly sucked in again for a month or two before burning out for a while.) And I'm realizing the way I really love to play this game/series: I don't particularly care about "winning" a game. Basically, I play through...

What's driving me crazy here is trying to discern which GAs are in the "Standard Rule Set" and which aren't. In my current game I've earned Themistocles, Artermisia and Gaius Duilius so far and Elizabeth's ability still hasn't popped off yet.

One of the top reasons to play as Maori is that you know you'll never run into Kupe in your game.

I'm playing as Muhteşem Suleiman, yeah. That was my thought as well, but Owls are so great (and easier to come by the invitation for) that it's hard for me to resist. Hence the question here.

Thanks! That's what I thought, just wanted to make sure before picking Owls for Ottomans (I generally like Owls or Hermetics, but the Grand Bazaar is too good to swap out entirely for the Gilded Vault, so Hermetics it is!)

Just a quick question for something I've never been clear on, and I figured I'd check on here before going through the trouble to experiment with it myself: When playing in secret societies mode, if your Society's unique building (i.e. Gilded Vault or Alchemical Society) replaces the same...

Having not yet played with everybody, I still cast my vote like a good uninformed citizen! So! Most Powerful: 1. SteamVicky (If I can ever get past England's apparent start bias against ever having a decent start. That might just be my own fluke of luck though.) 2. Yongle (Maybe should have the...

Lol, yes, I absolutely meant not centered on war. Thanks, fixing it now.

Y'all, I'm just so so happy that this Mac user finally gets to play with the new toys. Getting them all at once, well, you can really feel the constrictions that Firaxis was seemingly put under in making them, yes. Nzinga Mbande looks amazing and is powerful, but not very interesting to play as...

What the what? My game is updating. But I'm on Mac!
