And is there a promo code out there that gives us a discount?

Inca four city tradition. Especially if there's some mountains with hills around you can grow like crazy and jet ahead in science or, just cruise along in science and go conquer. pick a civ early to war with and "train" comp. bows, then complete oxford the same turn dynamite becomes available...

I don't think it's a lost cause, I USUALLY don't have to switch ideologies, but I have a couple times. You only lose the two free ones that you got in autocracy, so if you have five in autocracy, and you switch, you'd get three tenets in whatever ideology you switch to. I haven't seen much here...

railroads to connect my four core cities, and railroads on all territory that is NOT mine between the core and my puppets.

Yeah, it all worked out. I'm glad I got stealth while my invasion force had embarked across the ocean. I took a coastal city, upgraded the bombers, then had to stop burning the city so that I could "park" the stealths there. I haven't done a huge continents map before, usually do pangea. So...

Never mind, I just looked it up, and no, carriers do NOT carry stealth bombers. Who knew???

I moved some bombers into a city I just captured, upgraded them to stealth bombers, and now they won't transfer back to the carrier. I've tried moving them two turns in a row now. They WILL transfer to another city. Stealth bombers ARE allowed on carriers, are they not?

Does it work on macs?

I can't help it. I see the blue and white uniforms and I want them to die (lose). Apologies to any Grecians out there. I realize it's absurd to take what happens in a computer game and make real-life decisions (even if it's a relatively unimportant decisions as who to root for in the World Cup)...

I've found in my emperor games that I'll be ahead in tech, then behind, then, at least by industrial, I'm ahead. The AI being ahead by three techs doesn't mean you're going to lose. You just have to get ahead of them, eventually. And if you follow all the good advice I've seen here, it'll...

I've played zulu a couple times on standard size, then I tried it on large map, emperor. Lots of trouble. I had Mongolia to my north, Attila to the west. decided to take them out first. As soon as I had impi's I rolled over both of them. Problem was, Karkorum was Mongolia's only city, and I...

Arabia, diety, small, pangea. this is my second diety game. First one I won with SV. Now trying for domination. No flood plains around me but some desert. so I abandoned by usual plan of getting desert folklore. Lots of silver so I got that pantheon. Did not get a religion, as expected...

First Deity win today. Babylon, small map, continents, science victory at turn 320. While I am elated at the achievement, I have some concerns. I feel as if the victory was, well, maybe not lucky, but let's say fortuitous. I spawned on a continent with Morocco. Never engaged in a war (save...

Ok, OP totally inspired me. I've never even TRIED diety until I read this post and thought I'd give it a shot, and I did it! I win 99% on emperor and usually win on immortal but never really tried diety except for maybe a couple times in vanilla version, and I quit when I saw how far ahead ai...

Congrats! If and/or when I DO try diety that's how I'd probably try it, babylon and SV. How many times did you try in diety until you got it?
