    Why I'm Hopeful

    In addition to this great site (CivFanatics), this Reddit thread Mega Thread has great info on Civ 6. I'm hopeful for Civ 6 because the real world historical and anthropological research in the 25 years since the first Civ game has shed new light on the role of the local environment in...

    Modding Civ 6

    Question: How well will modding be supported in Civ 6? At one point, Civ 5 was to be a modders "dream" but a lot of barriers remained that prevented it from being as mod-able as Civ 4. Did this ever change? It was my perception that the ability or inability to mod Civ cleft the community...

    CivAddiction’s Multiplayer Modpack – CP+CSD+C4DF+Serp’s+And More!

    I haven't played Civ 5 in two years and decided to try this mod rather than get the new Space Civ (beyond Earth?) game. This. Mod. Is. Amazing. As far as I'm concerned, this modpack is the next expansion pack after BNW. Hats off to you and all the individual modders.

    Converting G&K Civs Project - Hard?

    There are a lot of Mod Civs made for Vanilla and G&K. The original authors may or may not have the time/or be around anymore to migrate their creations to BNW. It's a shame to lose this work. How hard is it? Assuming you aren't going to make any substantive changes to the mod civ UA, UB...

    My Rant On Tourism

    Tourism should be a unit like science, gold, culture, faith, food, and hammers. You should acquire it and have you should have options for spending it. Culture accrues until you "purchase" a social policy. Food accrues until you "purchase" a population increase. Hammers accrue until you...

    My short film (based on CIV V) is a VIMEO STAFF PICK!

    Awesome. I will check it out tonight. I'm not a huge art house film type of guy but I know most artistic innovation tends to birth this way (creates something new). I'm more a fan of pop art although it's almost always derivative. What intrigues me about "seed story" is its potential for a...

    My short film (based on CIV V) is a VIMEO STAFF PICK!

    Brilliant work. My mind raced with ideas. I love miniature and the entire piece was evocative. I've never seen macrofilmed video before and I love it. I hope you make more films in this macro style. Do you have plans for more? Great work. I just love it. Can someone please create a Seedling...

    The diplomatic twerkings of M'banza-Congo

    I don't think there should be a fix. I think Japan's turning on you made your roll to victory more difficult thus enhancing gameplay. It also appears to be in Japan's interest to turn on you. Civ 5 AI has an AI challenge in terms of Diplomacy. At one level, players want the AIs to simulate...

    10 Fixes Needed for the Fall Patch

    Thank you for the feedback. Glad to see my thread has over 1,000 views. I find bluster works best on the Internet. Walk into a forum, tell the crowd of strangers that your a straight up boss, and then get down to business. Why buff Piety, and not nerf Tradition or buff Honor? I think...

    10 Fixes Needed for the Fall Patch

    These are the ten fixes needed for the Fall Patch. Period. 10. Piety Opener Should Provide Culture - Tradition, Liberty, and Honor openers all provide culture. Piety opener should also provide culture making it a more useful tree to open early in the game. 9. Improve Denmark - The...

    10 Things You Aren't Doing in BNW (But Should)

    These are my top ten things new players should be doing in BNW but are not: 10. Pillage - Pillaging enemy improvements damages the improvement making it unusable by the enemy. It also gives +25 health and some gold. AI will consider surrendering if you are devastating their territory. 9...

    Patria Grande: Civilizations of the Americas

    Also, these custom civs inspired me to read "1491" which I thoroughly enjoyed. I'm sure many here have read it but it just begs for new types of resources and tile improvements. It certainly seems like native American civilizations were masters at agro-forestry and it would be amazing to see...

    Patria Grande: Civilizations of the Americas

    Update on my "Americas" game: I really, really hate Bernardo O'higgins. I don't know how he was made, but he is without a doubt the biggest jerk AI I've ever faced. He is absolutely brilliant. My hats off to the makers. Pure emotional hatred wells up inside me when I see his dark blue and...

    Patria Grande: Civilizations of the Americas

    Love these civs. I'm playing a large 20 civ game with these and the LS Western Hemisphere civs (Olmec etc). I've rounded out with Iriquois, Shoshone, Aztecs, Maya, Inca, Brazil, England, Portugal, and France. I'm Spain. These are great!

    Giant Death Robots With Atomic Bombs

    Wow, you are working over the AI. Great work. Love the theme and style. Can't wait for the fall of Morocco. They deserve it for being not Camelot.

    The Fail Chronicles - Indonesia Edition

    The majority of the world adopted Order but I maintained positive Happiness through the war due to City State allies and my Indonesian UA of three unique luxuries. Honor also allowed me to garrison cheap Lancers in each city to keep my Happiness from ever dipping below zero. It was tight...
