Off-and-on is the keyword here. Try an unbroken line, which is what Civ conquests tend to be. Compare with former Yue peoples who used to occupy large swathes of southern China who are now fully assimilated and integral to China.

lmao, I love your new sig, Imp

Yeah, agreed. As far as QoL goes, it would be amazing to learn what tiles are within an AI's borders from a quick glance to the minimap as opposed to mousing over, especially in MP. P.S. I hope you're selling the Trespasser this week since it's now in the loot pool ;)

According to some people, Anzac Spirit. But I'm on the same page as you concerning nation states and civilizations.

Thanks :) But yeah, with India that's a good example. I'd love to have Chandragupta Maurya for a proper military-based India. Multi-civ leaders would be a novel new concept I could actually get behind. Has it been confirmed that Unrestricted Leaders may be an option again though? If...

I voted number 4. Combat should be challenging, but fair, assuming you are on the same tech level as your opponent. Assymetrical combat arising from a tech difference is an organic part of the game, it happens, both player inflicted onto an AI or the other way around. The only way I would ever...

Like some of the other posters here, I've experienced problems moving with allied units or through allied territory because they can't share tiles. I know they won't walk back 1UPT, but the game's combat isn't well suited for 1UPT for a few reasons, totally fixable reasons but just identifying...

I agree with the idea that body-blocking will not inherently be an effective strategy to stop Apostles, assuming someone is trying to carpet their territory with them. However, I do see it as a symptom of the problems of civilian 1UPT. I have long accepted military 1UPT, but civilian traffic...

For someone like myself, who makes a big distinction between a country and a civilization. This: Would be my definition of a civilization. A country can be part of a civilization, but just because a country is a country, does not automatically mean it is its own civilization. This seems to...

Didn't even get time to finish my argument. On topic: I'm in agreement with those who think the Stave Church is underpowered. If we're going to chop woods anyway for production, what's the point? We don't chop rainforest because IIRC they don't give production. They're only cleared because...

Honestly, this: A civilization to me, is the broadest possible grouping of all peoples that have a common origin, culture and cultural practices, religion, ethnicity, traditions, etc. That means individual nations, kingdoms, republics, etc. what have you, can belong to these civilizations...

Nothing ridiculous at all. In contrast, let's look at how Civ would work by your logic. We don't need Persia. We just need to add Medians, Parthians and Sassanids instead! They're all separate countries, so they must be separate civilizations right? Let's split Japan up into different...

Iceland imo doesn't qualify as a civ. It's a country, yeah. But if I wanted to play countries, I'll play EUIV. Corea actually has business being in the game. I don't see how that's a naked cash grab when they've been in 3 and 4, and qualify as a contiguous, unique civilization. (Unless you...

I would rather not pay Firaxis money for constituent parts of a civilization that could go for something completely new or different. The Denmark and Sweden inclusion from Civ 5 was pretty much a naked cash grab. Let's not even call Iceland a civ here, considering it has been mostly a...

The Kalmar Union says hello. EDIT: Ninja'd
