Yeeah! THX! Finally I understood it. So I get trade routes to cities I have a completely visible route to AND to the cities these cities' grayish "trade influence" get and so on...(only those grayish influences are useable which arent hostile)

A very important thing wasn't discussed yet: What things do you need, so that a foreign city qualifies to be trade routed with one of your cities? According to my experiences: -open borders agreement of course -the route to the city MUST be explored and visible!! So if there is a road route...

Barbs=cheap xp for early conquest. Having barbs has its advantage. The main point of the wall is the great spy points, and the early great spy which is like a bunch of free techs.

I found out in my recent game, that the optimal way a city should be worked during a golden age, is VERY much different, from the way it is optimally worked at normal times, and how the automatic city governor does. During a golden age you get an extra gold from tile where there is already at...

I need a list of technologies which can be researched by each great people. So it should be a list of all the tech what a great scientist, prophet etc... can research. It would be great on planning ahead what I should use my great people for. I guess these data are stored somewhere in an XML...

I go for cultural, what was so hard to understand in that?? Why do you post when you are not helpful, didn't understand my first post,and only pissed me off? After more then 4000posts you could have learned some forum etiquette.

Thank you!

Yeah, I am happy that my old thread was reborn 4years later :D Thx, :)

Hi! I have read quite a lot of threads about better AI, but none of them answered this question. I installed better AI with another mod(advanced combat odds 0.4) and I would like to make sure that better AI is in operation. How can I do this, except for playing hours and experiencing that it...

From the 4 civics you mentioned, 3 is really useful. If you don't see the point in their usage, then ... hm... I don't want to be rude. :D Enviromentalism, that one is debatable, but I agree it's not really useful. I only found it really useful in games which start in a later era.

The poll suprised me quite much. I thought much more people play advanced starts, and play the BTS improved modern era. BTS is not about the ancient times. I have to say you are a bit short-sighted, and missing a lot of the game... :P

I mean if you regularly play games when you don't start in the ancient era. If you play, please vote which kind of games do you play the most. I recently found out how much fun these games can be. Having tough wars in the modern era with nukes and the lot of modern units avaible is quite...
