    Help in modding the map

    I am coming very late to Civ 6. Need a bit of help. I do not want desert tiles at all on the map. Maybe want to remove tundra also. In Civ 4 / 5, I vaguely remember we could open files in the folder where Civ game is installed and modify values so that we could do these simple changes. I...

    Civ 6 Gandhi religious victory question

    Oh yes! I remember now that we actually needed 9 cities in Civ4. It's been many years, but I think the way I handled it was - build first three cities as far apart as I could, and then build two satellite cities around each of these three to build basic structures and get my 3 cathedrals Civ 5...

    Civ 6 Gandhi religious victory question

    Thanks for the replies. I too suspected after seeing civ's and leader's advantages and playing it for a day or two that the game is fundamentally diff from 4 and 5 as far as my playing style is concerned. And this pretty much ruins the game for me. Will try one with 4 cities and if that seems...

    Civ 6 Gandhi religious victory question

    Thanks so much. It helps! It is disappointing for me. But helps I hate settling too many cities, and the great feature of Civ 4 and 5 was that it encouraged Gandhi to settle fewer cities and grow them really big which suited my style well. Now I have to work on different kind of gameplay. I...

    Civ 6 Gandhi religious victory question

    I am playing Civ 6 (Rise and Fall) for barely a couple of days. I played hours and hours of Civ 4 and 5 till a few years back. Always aimed for Gandhi and culture victory in 4 and 5. I used to then just build 3 cities and those grew into monster cities eventually. There was penalty to India civ...

    New to BNW

    Thanks for replies. PS: I played Civ V vanilla long time back and maybe my memory serves me wrong, but I thought it had resource bonuses. Anyway, I have clarity now. Thanks.

    New to BNW

    I am new to BNW and playing it for only two weeks or so. A very basic question: I notice that wonders are no more getting constructed faster if you have a resource. I built pyramids a few times and assumed that my having stone must have made it very fast. But after a while I noticed the speed...

    Rate Civ V

    One observation - noone thinks it is a great game. 9 or 10 rating has been given by less than 7% of the voters. Most think it is either mediocre or a good game. Lot has been said about the game on the site and I have seen quite a bit of it. But I got a chance to play it only recently and I...

    Is it possible to turn research agreements off?

    Thanks for this bit of info, I found the file and removed RA altogether and then enjoyed a game free from mindless and endless attacks.

    Game crashes

    Radeon 4870 x 2, 1 GB. I don't think this problem has anything to do with the graphic card. Just wait for next patch, hopefully they will fix it.

    Is it possible to reduce AI aggressiveness

    I am trying to achieve a Bollywood victory at King level and I am constantly distracted by AI attacking me non - stop. I mean, I have a decent army and have given the same civs drubbing at least 3 times, but within 10 turns or so, without any provocation, I again get attacked. If all this is...

    [CIV 5 Issues] - The complete list

    I have not read all the posts here, but immediately upon it's launch, I had seen many rants against the game. Now I have played a few games post the latest patch and here are my comments: 1. First off, the game is not bad at all. It is addictive like Civ IV and indeed, if it had come as a...

    Game crashes

    I saw someone else having this problem too - the game crashes at a very advanced stage (my case it started around 1990 AD) when you press the button for next turn. If you go "strategic view" and then press the turn button, it does not crash. Will someone tell me if this is a persistent...

    Some Basic Observations on Cultural Games in Civ5

    One city or a small number of cities is best for cultural victory. Does that make Gandhi the best civ for cultural victory ?

    Cultural Victory strategy - best civ for the job and which Social Policy trees

    I have played Civ IV for three years, ONLY for culture victory and ONLY with Gandhi ! Tried others but never pursued seriously. I was able to win consistently at monarch. For this reason, I went through this thread very carefully. I do not have the game yet but played the demo to get a feel of...

    1000 reasons why you're disappointed

    Digitalcraft put it very well. It actually seems to be programmed quite like Rome: Total War with notifications dropping in a similar way. It felt more like Rome: Total War (without real time battles) than like Civ IV. The other grouse that I have is that color contrasts are not sharp and...

    Is there an official Civ 5 review

    Is there an official review of Civ 5 anywhere on this site. I tried searching through the search engine as well as by browsing the many threads, but did not find. I have read IGN and Gamespot reviews, but I would have liked to see if this site gives out one. If there is, will anyone help...
