    What are the effects of razing the city with a corporation HQ?

    I razed a Hannibal's Sid's Sushi in this game. He had build it in his capital city Carthage. It was on the same island with the city of Utica on the ruins near the wheat. He spreaded it to a few of his cities. I think he was teching much slower than before, but not on the verge of...

    Please help me be a better warmonger!

    Sailing appears to be the best choice. Go for that. Shaka is a good "attack dog" if you share his religion. Bribe him with cheap techs to attack other neighbours. Make sure he shares your religion! Hmm....you are kinda short of gold to keep a huge army of Praets. If need be use up or...

    What is your least-used civic?

    I hardly use Vassalage, Serfdom and Caste System. Bureaucracy gives more benefits then Vassalage so i will try to get Civil Service earlier than Feudalism. Serfdom is kinda useless. Just build or capture a few more workers. I seldom use Caste system because i like to rush...

    Creating Colony results on existing Colony declaring war on Master

    I wonder if this is a bug. I am playing as Darius of Persians. I created a Colony with Saladin of Arabia in charge centuries ago. When I granted independence to a bunch of cities in a seperate continent, Saladin declared war on me!

    What do you want to see in Civilization 5?

    1) Allow workers and settlers to quickly populate a city, like in Civ3. 2) Assimilation should take a longer time like in civ3. In Civ4, if a civ is destroyed by another, its people gets assimilated instantly. This is somewhat unrealistic. 3) If a minority ethnic group is a majority in a...

    Scientific Method

    Yes I always switch to Representation whenever I can.:) I don't always switch to Free Religion immediately, especially if I have Spiral Minaret (which I always try to build) and my religion is widespread, keeping a state religion could earn lots of gold per turn if it is a popular one...

    Scientific Method

    Do you research Scientific Method early? Scientific Method obsoletes all your monasteries which gives 10% scientific research bonus. This could mean taking one more turn to research new techs. On the other hand, it is a pre-requisite for Communism which could let you run the State Property...

    I tried this strategy once at Noble and it's pretty effective Tokugawa is my vassal and he was right next to me He is weak and backward and only had rifleman while I had already finished researching all the techs Peter was pissed at me for not paying tribute to him so he declared war He...

    Capitulated vassal and cultural border expansion

    I have encountered this a few times at Noble level My vassal (capitulated), which is next to me, has a large chunk of its land taken over by me by cultural expansion, until the point that it lost more than 50% of its land from the point of capitulation. The vassal then declared independence...
