Ok, so that explains why I can't trade with Ramesses. But what about Hannibal and Justinian? We are connected by river (all three have cities on the river1>coast>river2 stretch) and I have Sailing. But river1 flows through no-man's land, is that the reason? (And as for sic! I was referring to...

Hi, I've been away from the game for a while so my memory is lacking a bit. I can't figure out why I am "not connected to any trade networks". I can trade techs but no resources. I have open borders with everyone. I have border contact with Ramesses but no road going into his territory. Is...

Med tanke på att "Farbror Barbro" får mig att tänka på en champagnekork jag fick i pannan på Patricia för några år sedan så är den kommentaren ganska rolig... :lol:

Now that's a selling point! Next game I'll play as India. :lol:

So they have three movement points as opposed to two for a regular worker. That makes them fast moving. But are they also fast working?

if you haven't started a new game since this one you still have the 4000BC autosave in the autosave folder !

YES! give us a 4000BC save !!

By the way, snuggles, have you even tried reinstalling?

One thing I often see horse units do is to come out of the fog and attack and then withdraw back into the fog again so you can't see it the next turn. Nothing wrong with that, I just lack the line of sight to be able to track them as they withdraw into the fog. Sometimes they arrive 'through' a...

In relation to the other civs (not barbs), just press F9 and click on 'Power' to see how large your competitors' armies are. You'll need to collect some espionage points before all of them become visible though.

Surely that is no longer true. I remember it used to be like that in Vanilla but since BTS they will always walk in a straight line past my 'outpost' only one or two tiles away, unless I attack them. They focus on getting inside your borders now.

Yes, that is actually better. I should use chariots more often... :blush: And Ishkinae, you could do well to settle a city 3 tiles East of New York, inorder to claim those floodplains and diminish the distances between cities in your empire. Eventually you'll have to whip some Saladin-butt as...

LoS=line of sight, tiles that you are effectively monitoring from turn to turn. Those tiles that are 'lit' up. The aspect we are talking about here (LoS tiles vs. previously explored but currently darker tiles) is very important when it comes to fighting off barbarians. The most efficient...

I love to have Shaka and/or Monty closeby, they always make the game interesting and eventful. :)

To be very clear, you do see that around your cities the tiles are lit up. To the North they are darker but you can still see vegetation (as opposed to black). There is a huge difference between being lit up and being darker. In the latter you cannot see what is going on from turn to turn. If...
