    AI less prone to war than it used to be?

    I saw there was another thread regarding expansion. Myself I have been experiencing a string of surprisingly peaceful games since I patched up. Partly I have adapted to the new amounts of troops the AI produces I guess, so they attack me less. But they don't attack each other either. Which is a...

    Esus bug?

    I recently had a game where i discovered Deception but Esus did not found, neither did I get a Nightwatch. According to the religious advisor it had not been founded by anyone else, and when i tried to use the world builder to add a Nightwatch, spread the religion etc. nothing happened. Am I...

    The new Stacks of Doom

    So, we have all seen the new impressive AI and the massive armies it manages to crunch out. I am however a bit perplexed about the underlying mechanics behind this. Is the new patch simply a change of preferences given to the AI, prioritizing unit production more than it did before; or has any...

    How to merge CitystyleModMod with Monkeyfinger's Visible improved forests for elves?

    I love them both! I think Monkeyfinger's mod is a quite simple change in the plotsystem xml, but can't seem to find the details on the forum. (The mods: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=308955 http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=333249)

    Withdrawal mechanics

    Anyone know the exacts functions of the withdrawal mechanic, flanking promotions etc.? Only thing I knwo is that the upgrades does not add a flat % bonus to any combat regardless of power etc., but not much more than that. I've been browsing the vanilla strategy forums for a while, but no luck...

    Tactics

    Here I thought we would share our tactical tips, or perhaps our observations of odd AI behaviour. Playing as the svartalfar conquering cities is kinda of a problem for a big part of the game, but I have discovered that given certain conditions the AI will walk out of their big cities to...

    Regarding starting locations and scripts.

    Does anyone know if mapscripts in general or scripts like Erebus, ErebusContinents, PerfectWorld2, Tectonics, sort of script specific starting locations to the players (AIs included)? If so, is this effected by the chosen number of players?

    Religion Rush - any guidlines?

    When do you people rush for a religion, and how much is it really worth? I have been playing with a sort of religion-trying-focus for a while now and sort of lost perspective in the process, I chase the foundations like a mad man without much thought about its actual use. How do you play...

    The Smaller Empire

    For quite some time now I have more or less consciously avoided large empires. Not because it is the best way to play, but because too many occupied cities without any clear purpose bores me. I like to cuddle up in my own empire, usually the forested lands of the Svartalfar. Sometimes I conquer...

    Changing default number of players

    Hello, is there a way to change the default number of AI civs assigned by mapsize? I am pretty sure this has been mentioned before, but either I'm stupid or the search-function is jsut crazy. Or both.

    How do you finance your upgrades?

    Something I've been pondering lately, how do people generally prioritize and finance upgrading their units? Do you keep some sort of average budget-surplus, or move to 0% research whenever the need arises? And how many units do you cater through the upgrading process? I've recently been...

    Speed and difficulty

    I recently moved from quick to normal speed, and was quite chocked to realise how much easier quick was. First I searched the forums for some patch-change or similair to offer an alternative explanation, not quite willing to believe that all my near-diety-acomplishments were due to an even worse...

    Buying new Comp - what to think about

    I'm probably getting a new computer this week, and I was wondering if any one had any hardware tips to get as much civ and FFH from each buck as possible. What is worth putting some extra money, and is there anything one can down-prioritize?

    Separate Island Kingdom = guaranteed altar victory?

    I know the AI and it's (in)ability at sea warfare has been discussed much. Myself I've never seen any AI naval invasion consisting of more than 2-3 units. Atm I'm playing a game where I intended to go for an altar victory, and seeing that I'm alone on an Island, my question is simply - can I...

    What happened to the barbs?

    Maybe this has been mentioned earlier, but I couldn't find anything. What happened to the barbs? At immortal, they used to be the major threath during the early game, hammering on your cities endlessly. But nowadays they seem to be back to their old strutting about, providing cheap XP etc. I...

    Need Altar advice

    Thought I'd try my hands on an Altar victory, and was wondering how you usually manage your GP's, how many non-Prophets are tolerable? How much should I focus on prophet-generation? 100%, 80~%? Probably will play with a non-philosophical leader.
