http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la-pn-romney-teachers-unions-contributions-20120925,0,4439245.story I actually agree that only private persons should be able to donate anything. In fact, the best solution would be no donations at all. But how on earth can he defend this, and still...

http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2012/jul/21/offshore-wealth-global-economy-tax-havens Can we at some point in the future, agree on that a theory should have some resemblance of a basis in reality, instead of being based on dreams? It is not the wealth of the upper class that drives the...

I have just gotten a couple of warnings from my anti-virus-shield about malicious software coming from this place. Just a heads up, dunno if it's a false positive or not.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-18128170 Now, the Mafia link is AFAIK not all that credible. The Mafia is not know to target random people, even if the school seems not-so-random, but actually tries to get the population on their side. Not their usual MO. I'm guessing homegrown...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T69ftWNg97U&feature=player_embedded Well, this actually looks :vomit: Sorry, what I meant to say :vomit: Again, sorry, must be a stomach flu or something. Back to Sta :vomit: Where is that bucket? Sorry, where was I? Oh, the new version of the :vomit...

As I'm writing a Rife AAR on another forum, to showcase FfH2/Rife, and the Illians have come up as a possible civ, I wondered if the ascendency is working? I know is was out at one time, but I can't remember if it was reintroduced.

Somehow, I cannot convert to a different religion. Playing Bannor, well, see for yourself:

So, after I noticed that the Clans Boss units can create forts like great commanders, I decided to try to paint the world orange. And while the clans fort commanders suck donkey balls, they aren't attacked by anything other than the demons, which is not really that much of a threat (skeletons...

I love the gigantic earth map (even though there are too many resources), and pretty much only play that. The map is a bit large, and becomes quite slow in the end, so I saw that AND advertised being faster, and here I am. But though my own turns are quick and responsive, the AI turns have...

How big is the chance for the "too afraid to attack" outcome? Because I have had 1 unit attack, out of 30, which seems a bit on the small side, to put it mildly. Fear, sure, but this is ridiculous.

I have been away from FfH2 mods for a long time, but now I can't find how to trigger the worldspells anymore. Have they been removed, or are there added triggers that I'm not aware of? Or is it just me that haven't spotted it yet (most likely I'm afraid)?

This really bugs me, that a unit that is limited in numbers can be effectively taken away from you, thus reducing the limit, without anything in return. Especially when it concerns guild units. The BTS guild system is annoying enough as it is, without the lower limit that comes when a couple of...

What does it do? I like the Mazatl, not the easiest civ as the build time of improvements on jungle is quite long, and their commerce ain't great. Still dunno how to spread jungle, if it can be done at all. Still, a fun civ, if only they had the conqueror trait (hell, I would like the...

So, in Fall Further barbarians/savages can spawn right outside your border, and in large numbers too, so fogbusting don't work. Does this only happen to the human? The score leader? Or is it universal? Now, I hate this "feature", but how does the AI cope? I know I can, but I can't see the AI...

I tried to install this mod-mod twice, and both times I the UI is gone from the game when I start it. Also, the various Erebus map scripts refuses to go beyond initialization when I try loading them. So, what did I do wrong? Could this be a result of the BUG mod? (which I have installed...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHojfwdLucI Now we only need SMAC and Planescape Torment, and I have all the old games remakes I want (if only Sid would do a decent job on the Railroad Tycoon and Colonization remakes).

Now we all know that the REF is tied to liberty bell production, not quite linear, as it's better to either produce as much as you can, or nothing at all, but it's close. This is, IMHO a bit silly. For example, I can, merrily, produce [Dr. Evil] 100 million! [/] cannons without the king...

Okay, a small write up of a easy-win strategy. Not high in score, but very easy to do. First of, be very aggressive towards the other powers, take their settlements and free pioneers, but raze the settlements (unless they are where you want to build anyhoo). Only build two cities, and...

I mean seriously, five sea foods, two kinds, of which two is fish, seven flood plains, stone and gold. Only thing that is missing is forest. And yet, somehow, the AI has squandered this great start away (Babylon/Hammurabi is second last).

See attachment. Now, this little city was placed by the AI, close to the AI's capital (former, that player is now dead). the two tiles that are inaccessible are accessed by the capital. A placement of one north would have given one fish, one coast and three ocean tiles, for the cost of one...
