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...
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...
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...
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!
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...
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...
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...
Christianity or Confucianism
I tend to build Stonehenge and Oracle early in the game
I use the free tech from the Oracle for Metal Casting if it's available....If not I'll just settle for Codes of Law and found Confucianism
If I already have Monotheism I will use the Great Prophet to...
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...
I thought that was funny because their land were taken over by me but not another civ :lol:
There was one game which this happened twice
I capitulated Genghis and Ragnar
Both of them revolted for the same reason :lol:
I would usually finish them off if I could but I didn't have enough...
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...
