Diving in. What do I need to know? * Is there a summary of changes/enhancements? * Are there any threads I should read that would be particularly useful? * Any important gotcha's to be aware of off the bat?

Looking to get back into FFH. At the end of the day, it's just *better* than ciV or cVI, imo. In any case, what are people playing most these days? Is there any consensus to which combination of mods/modmods is the best single player, long game experience? It looks like WildMana has the most...

I'm intrigued by WildMana, but as a solo player, I'm wondering how the AI--which was never very good with magic to begin with--does with an enhanced magical system? If the AI is running a magic focused CIV in this, how does it do?

I gots one. What should I do with him? In cIV, I would build his building, or bury him in a stack for safety. Now, I've just got him holed up in my capital, waiting for someone to invade so I can pick the right place to build his building. But that feels stupid. SO, what do you do with...

The reviews of BNW intrigued me, so, after years of being a purely cIV player, I played about two hours of BNW last night. I've looked, but evidently not very well, for some guides to help experienced cIV players adapt to the, um, brave new world, but haven't found any. Are there such, and if...

Looking for the best FFH Setup--what modmods would you recommend? Not interested as much in additional civs as I am in better gameplay: better AI decisions, more strategy, etc. What modmods do you play with? Why?

How do I get out of this: * The Bannor are at war. * So, they adopt crusade. Cuz, you know, it's the cool thing to do. * But they are in a war that will last quite a while, becuse they underestimated the enemy. Whoops. * And, lots of other civs are running Republic. * And, the Overcouncil...

Not sure where to ask this--searches didn't yield answers, and it seemed too specific for the FAQ thread. Here's the deal: my Ljosafar have conquered some land from the evil Ilians. Some of the land is desert. My Priests of Leaves cannot cast Bloom on the desert tiles. No problem, I think, since...

Wasn't sure where to post this, but this seemed the best place. I'm not 100% sure this works--final testing should occur in the next couple of days, but early tests are encouraging. The Goal: To use World Builder to modify games intended for mp (in this case, direct IP) play. Here is what...

Is there any way to "zoom in on" a civ in WB? I need to modify a single civ's resources, but would rather not reveal the map in finding them.

Here's the situation: * The Germans are racing for domination, trying to conquer as much of the world as they can before the KhoiSan (using Gold) spaceship is launched or the Dutch uberCulture reaches the magic number. * Having just wiped out the evil HRE and Maori, they are looking for...

What is the relationship between the %'s listed in the mission and the impact on the target city? They don't match up (that is, the mission says the spy spreads 5% culture, but the city is no more Dutch after the cute lil' red-headed spy successfully completes and romps back to Amsterdam than it...

Hoping this helps someone else. To aid in that, here are some likely search terms for the post in addition to the title: HP, Hewlett Packard, Pavillion. I've had numerous issues that seem to be a result of video degradation--units and LH's disappearing, etc. Here is what finally solved it for...

Whenever I press [PrtSc] in BTS, I get this message. I have checked my ini file, and the format is set to JPG. Playing in windows mode .... any ideas?

See http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=263043 I am trying to isolate what the issue is. Could someone with Gold 4.0 installed see if they can open the attached gamesave? If so, do you see the city status bar/units? If you're trying to figure it out, go to the KhoSan's turn (the...

Could someone either post a save file or direct me to one that displays these concepts in action, preferably early to mid game? I am having a hard time putting my conceptual understanding into action in my games, and I think looking at a well built SE economy and well designed city...

I can't seem to figure out where in the XML traits themselves are defined. Can anyone help me out? Note, I don't mean in the LH file where you specify what traits the leaders have, but rather the traits themselves--I want to experiment with some changes in the trait definitions.

Wanted to see if other Steam users had this happen in the past two days. Suddenly, my CIV was set back to a default state (very notable, since I have Civ Gold set to auto load). I figured out, after some sleuthing, that it was suddenly reading the *.ini file from the BTS directory, not the one...

In an internet game via Gamespy, how do I replace a human with the AI? The other player can't play anymore, and I'd like to finish the game out. When I load the game now, it won't let me end my turn--I assume it is waiting for him.

I'm about to start work on a mod, and I want to make sure that I architect and code it so it is fully WoC compliant. Is there any documentation/tips/etc. that I can look at? The threads that would seem to contain that info are largely empty--so I would also volunteer to write up my experience as...
