Wow dude this is impressive! How long did it take you to set up?

Sometimes the micromanaging can be fun. It will always get tedious after a while, but I've found myself quite amused by planning out efficient moves. The city screen is pretty fun, but there is nothing worse then realizing you haven't developed the land enough and that is killing the city...

I went for a diplo victory on a long-winded Warlord game. I conquered my continent, then built up good report with my vassals. It didn't work out and I found myself giving away expensive techs trying to get to 'Pleased' with the other continent. I gave up and won via space race. I questioned...

Thank you so much for sharing the fix. I would have been miserable if I couldn't play Civ on my Mac anymore. :lol:

That's what I want to hear. Mwahaha!

This has been so helpful! Another question: Culture bomb with GA's or settle?

Ser-- thanks a lot for this info! I appreciate it.

I've been playing on Prince for a while now and have been very successful conquering everyone. I want to try culture though and having trouble choosing my techs and strategy. How important is founding religions? I know you can get the special building through each religion that gives you +50%...

I recently attempted a game where I was going to use religion to influence the world and make good money founding religions. I set the difficulty down so I had a better chance of founding as many as possible. I found myself mid game not caring about spreading the numerous religions to my...

@sisiuntil Valiant post regardless.

How great do you think the Retina display is? I read that you only notice when they are side by side with a non-retina display. I totally get your concern with jumping too soon, technology is random like that. You know what it is like to have money wanting to get spent though, right? I...

I'm getting that it isn't something you can do every game. Say you were to become super efficient at it, is is something you could do on a regular basis? Or is this thing some pipe dream that can be done only when the planets align? @King Pluto I've watched several AbsZero's vids, but not...

@z0wb13 I never thought of the hard drive bottling necking that sweet i7. Now you really got me thinking about it. I would hate to not get the full use out of the processor. I am a little nervous about storage though. Having the external hard drive isn't that annoying is it? Pretty fast...

You are saying to declare and harass? Never thought of the game that way. It sounds pretty hilarious though, and I am looking forward to trying it out. Probably tonight when I should be in bed. Any pointers? Do we have a sweet guide somewhere on this forum?

When would they announce? I wonder if they will cater to gaming a bit more with a model.
