    Rush buying on a desolate planet

    Does anyone else hope rush buying with gold/energy/credits/c-bills/whatever will be either limited like in civ 4 or banned outright? You land on the planet and need to survive. Who are you paying to rush build items? The concept of a private industry to pay to build items is silly in the...

    Listening to Polycast 129...

    Just listening to episode 129 of Polycast, the opening discussion on is Civ V worth playing I had a thought on improving the AI's (at a global level) and the game. It was said that the AI's DOW the player often, even if there has been a history of "peacefulness". Combine this with there being...

    What Civ V could learn from Panzer General

    One word: Suppression For those who have played the "X General" series of games you know what I mean, sending in a massive wall of units was not the best idea as if suppression causes your unit to flee and it has no hex to flee into then it auto surrenders and is gone for good. This...

    Fall from Heaven meets Fantasy General

    If this has already been pointed out then forgive me. Fantasy General. Fall from Heaven. Wow. Fantasy General was pretty cool, Fall from Heaven did magic better. I'm hoping that the FFH team are planning on a FFH3 (or whatever), because with the new combat system it will be awesome.

    Warning! If its only on Steam I'm not buying

    Please oh great Civ Gods! Hear my plea! I've played since Civ 1 on the Amiga. I played Civ 4 to death. If the only software download store to get CiV from is Steam, I will miss out through my belief that Steam takes games purchasing and buyers rights of software down a dark road...

    Founding Fathers (and Mothers): Who is good and who is not

    Like in Civ 4, some Wonders are more wondeful than others. Same with Col2. I know each may be useful at a given time, but what I would like to hear from others is who are good and who are not, and why? My opinion is that, as others have stated, Peter Miunet is great. The reduction in costs is...

    Get a book

    There is alot of shuffling people and goods around in this game. If you are like me and get muddled then do as I do and get a book. Re-name your ships and write the names for them in a book. Write down what they are doing to keep track of them. Eg "The North Star - TNS" could be general...

    Founding Fathers

    I see its possible to build FF points. Maybe an extra "Specialist City" to include in the list is the wood + carpenter = FF city?

    Lighthouse Mod

    Hi I edited a file to allow lighthouses to be built in cities not directly next to the coast, the reason was I got annoyed by not being able to build lighthouses where your city has coast tiles but was not next to the coast. It works, but now I can build lighthouses in inland cities. I...
