Not sure if this has been identified (I tried searching and looking at bug lists ... honestly :)) When I am able to found a religion, and the screen is displayed allowing you to select the religion to found, you can hover over the other religion icons, and it will tell you the name of the...

I've been playing with a couple of mods from Steam Workshop. Just thought I'd share, incase people didn't know they exist: 1) - Promotion Tree mod -- allows you to pull up a screen showing the promotion tree available for each type of unit. Helps to be able to see this when planning what...

If you select the Honor Social Policy (forget the name) which grants 10% attack strength to adjecent units ..... when you attack a unit, does it not display in the combat odds as a modifier ? I have selected it, had units next to each other, but do not see the 10% added. I see (for...

I've only ever accomplished Domination and Space/Science victories. I'd like to solicit any advice on best approach/strategies for Cutural and Diplo victories. Not sure if I even know what the requirements are for those victory types. Is it: Cultural: Complete 5 full Social Policy...

Is there a TSG8 being planned? Or is it being pushed now till post-patch? thanks

Does anyone know if the Natural Wonders that look/appear to be mountains are in fact treated as Mountains ? For example if I build a city next to "Grand Mesa" will I be able to build an observatory in the city (because its built next to a mountain) ? thanks

According to the Civipedia, part of the Inca Special Ability is "pays no maintenance for improvements in hills and half elsewhere" Not sure what this means..... I thought maybe it meant roads, but it doesn't say "pay no maintenance for roads in hills and half elsewhere" .... it uses the...

With the new patch you have to pick a policy when it becomes available. There will also be an option to not enforce this. I'd guess most of the time the option to not enforce this won't be selected. (Meaning you have to pick the policy when available). Any idea for the GOTM staff, what...

With the new patch forcing you to "pick Policy when available" ... I've been trying to figure out some strategies for this. As my first Policy pick: I usually pick the Honor one first, allowing me to go deeper if/when necessary. I sometimes pick the ?? (forget name...one that allows...

I am hopefull that the patch may improve Civ 5 (AI in particular), and in the next 6-18 months the game may be more captivating for me with an expansion that re-works some of the core gameplay features. I am looking for some advice on other TBS games that people might recommend. In...

here's what I think we'd hear: At 2K Games: "Civ5 is selling okay .... we'll give the green light to one expansion pack. If the numbers arn't good.....that's it" At Firaxis: "I wish we'd never sold out to 2K Games. We've lost all control of the Civ franchise" At Shafers house: " I...

As I've been playing lately, I've been lookeing at the custom game settings, wondering if any of the settings might help the AI play a better game (or inversely which settings would cause the AI to struggle more) ... I thought I read somewhere that Pangea map helps the AI - because it...

This was an attempt at humor.... This is not a CIV 5 bash, I got the game last night, and I'm loving it :) I was kinda worried after reading all the "bashing" in the forums, but it's kinda overblown in my opinion, a new game with a new approach.... just want I wanted ! But the...

Well .... I've bought the game, now I need a system to run it. I've been saving my pennies since May and I'm looking at Dell.ca (I'm in Canada...) Dell XPS9100 ~ $1400 Intel® Core™i7-930 processor(8MB L2 Cache, 2.80GHz) 6GB Tri Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1333MHz- 3 DIMMs ATI Radeon...

Just to let the Admin's know, the URL's for the BOTM3 save files are not coded correctly. For anyone (like me) wanting to get the save file use the URL: http://gotm.civfanatics.net/download.php?file=civ4botm03contender.CivBeyondSwordSave (replace contender with other options) The files...
