I mostly decided to make this thread because I want to read about other players experiences... Especially for how many cities they build. In my most recent current game, I managed to do something I've never done before and I've had Golden Ages in every Era since the Classical Era! Amazing! I...

I always use Enormous Continents+Islands maps with 25+ Civs or more. I find small maps with just a few civs to be boring and very easy. More Civs means more geopolitical dynamics and trade. It makes things interesting. But it also means alot longer games. My games usually take weeks at a time...

This may be a better idea for Civilization 7. But I was thinking about real life China and how they had a civil war directly after World War II, which has lead to the situation we have today in regards to Taiwan. And how the 2 systems of government have different alliances with other nations...

I'd like to change song that plays while you're waiting for your saved game to load. The one in G+K that plays now drives me nuts because I hate opera singing. How do you direct the game to play a different audio file of your choice? My 2nd quesion is this: Is it possible to change G+K's...

So obviously City States are the big new bold addition to the latest installment of the civilization franchise. However as a newbie to Civ V, I am at a loss for how to handle them. In past Civ games like Civ III and Civ IV, I've always been a land hoarder. I expand as fast and as broad as I...

Most of us here would agree how important education is when electing our leaders. Some here are even extremely irritable towards something as simple as grammer errors. I think its safe to say, when choosing those who run our respective nations we want the utmost educated and competent that we...

How does the game run? I've got a Athelon 64 duel core X2 5000+ processor (2.6 GB) with 2GB of RAM with an NVIDIA 8500 GT graphics card. Do you think I would have any problems running the game? I'd love to get the game and try it but I don't want to have to go through the hastle of having to...

This is an assignment I have to do for my art class in college. I have to ask some strangers 2 questions and write an essay. So If you would be so kind to indulge... What do you think art is? What does art mean to you? This assignment is also age demographic sensative, so if you are a...

This is bad. Here I am in my own Island in the middle of the World minding my own bussiness, even choosing Free Religion as to not be a religous perriah. I build up my navy to protect my shores, but it does not deter. I continue to get sneak attacked and it has gotten so bad it is me verses the...

Many of you here are well educated and still active with advanced math, so I think this is a good a place as any to ask. I haven't had any practical use for Algebra in 12 years so I've forgotten all that I've learned. I used to be good at it, but that was when I was still in school getting...

I've never used the Environmentalism civic, but I would really like to give it a try. I just don't know of any good situations to do so. What are some good strategies to use the Environmentalism and make it effective? I always have trouble waiting that long because if I do, I find my...

Playing on a crowded huge perfect world map with 25 civs, I lucked out with my starting location when my 2 closest nieghboring civs were destroyed by Barbarians. This gave me great real estate to expand into. Unfortunately because I was worried about Egypt getting to the spots I wanted (They...

I just updated to 3.19 but I have found out that now, none of my Mods work! I've also checked the Mods in the download section to see if there are updates but sadly there are not. (Ethnic City Styles I believe is one out of date component that might be causing the mod to crash.) So, I've...

Is it even possible when playing with large amounts of Civs? I am playing 20 or more civs in a perfect world/new world map. Recently I was able to found 4 out of the possible 6 religions and had a large majority of the world included with my state relgion. However that didn't seem to...

I'm just learning Chess and I was wondering what do you think the best opening moves are? I've tried the win in 4 turn strategy but that never happens like it's supposed to. That strategy assumes your oponent will make the exact ideal moves, which will never happen. The Queen or King are...

I bumped something on my keyboard and now everything in internet explorer has disapeared. The address bar, the back and forward browser buttons, google search, everything; the entire thing is gone. It must have went to some kind of full screen mode or something. It only comes back if I hold my...

I'm in a indecisive pickle at the moment because it's my first time running anything besides a cottage spammed economy. I'd say I'm using a hybrid economy, thanks to a bunch of world wonders and free specialists, and lots of food in my capital. I'm in a great position to get my highly coveted...

It's time to play, "Trait That Leader!" I'll post a historical leader and based on real history, you post what traits they should be in Civ IV. If there is a consenses on anyone, you win! The grand prize is that they will appear in a mod I'm writing the xml's for. :) Ok so now let's have...

If I downloded some modular civs and made a mod strictly of modulars, how do I add things like diplomacy sounds (for the leaders, which happen to be modulars) to them and have them work in the game? Also is there a simple way to quickly plug in Veritas Derilect or Ethnic City styles in with...

How do you make custom flags with several colors? The kind that you can just photoshop and image and then convert that image to the files to put into the game... just like real life national flags... how do you make those custom flags? I've checked the tutorials index thread but all they...
