"Sharing tiles" means that 2 cities can access the same tile (usually a valuable tile with a Food resource or a growing cottage). Of course only one of the city will work it in a specific turn. Let's try to use an example. We have a Pig tile shared by city A and city B. Normally the Pig is...

If you have iron, Cannons + whatever you have. Cannons simply have no counters.

Just some suggestion for next games: - Don't build colosseums... - At 900 AD you shuld have a better knowledge of the map. Why didn't you send a workboat exploring? Why didn't you open borders and send a 2 movers to explore the land? - You have unhappy citizens in your capitol. Ever tried to...

But, if you delay IW after Oracle, don't you risk to lose iron sites to AIs ?

I vote for Brennus and Joao. They don't lose anything without their crappy UBs and UUs.

I have just finished a game trying this strategy with Mao: despite I made some mistakes (I kept too many conquered cities, I was involved in the first war too early) I got an easy win and conquered most of the world with just Cho-ku-nos and Trebuchets (Knights arrived too late, researching...

I jumped to Monarch about 6 months ago and now I'm thinking to move to about Emperor. What helped me alot was: 1) Forget early religions, research worker techs, BW, Pottery, then beeline to Alphabet, Currency and Code of Law. Don't research Iron working if you don't need it immediately, but...

I used to beeline to rifling (I liked to upgrade CR promoted units), but recently I discover by chance how powerful can be Musket+Cannons and how fast you can get them with a proper research strategy. Usually If I win the lib race I take Nationalism, beeline to steel, promote some old...

What about a Qin game at Deity?

I moved recently from Prince to Monarch, about 10 games so far, 1 victory (with Hatty), 4 defeat, 4-5 practice games (I tried different early game approach) and 1 easy victory (with Victoria). I learned a lot from these games, these are my suggestions for you, they seems to work for me...
