    [Vanilla] What I'd like to see in CIV VII

    I've been at this since Civ 1. Hoping... 1. I want to be able to reply/threaten the other leaders. Do/don't do this or else.. 2. I want traders that know enough not to dive in the sea when barbarians regularly patrol the seas, or run into waiting barbarians. In fact I want to tell the trader to...

    [Vanilla] Easy games are hard enough...

    At times I like to play custom games at the Settler level: Gaul, Cree, abundant resources, Legendary start, small continents. Often, what I get is a lousy start, with hardly any room for three cities, scant resources, no rivers, lots and lots of deserts, no natural wonders (ever), and far from...

    Wilcard problem?

    Playing as Australia, I got an extra wild card slot via a great person. Then I built the Forbidden city wonder expecting another wild card slot. Didn't get any. Is this a bug? - running with latest fall 17 update.

    I’ve had it!

    There is a problem with Steam and they don’t seem to want to or to be able to fix it. Civ 5 stops working in the middle of a game because of the local cache, a faulty module of which Steam promises to reacquire. It probably does; and the game works until the next faulty module in the local...

I recall the object was to discover the mystery of the menace. It had wormholes and stuff, and plant...

    Shafer’s contributions and the future of Civ

    I don’t know if it is attributable to Shafer but Civ 5 did solve several long standing problems. For the first time having and using navy is necessary. Hexes are a welcome enhancement. Combat is improved, although I still have trouble understanding how a warrior inflicts a -1 hit on a B17, or...

    Adding “Emotion” to Civ 5 for USD 4.99

    Every so often threads that call for an Israeli or Hebrew civilization in Civ5 (and 4, and 3, and 2, and 1) involve passionate arguments, invariably resulting in a moderator issuing warnings and closing the thread. Well, why not take advantage of all that passion and inject some emotion...

    CIV 4 Gold full manual missing from Disc 3

    I have the printed abridged manual but I can't locate the full manual on disk 3 (CIV 4 Gold Edition) as that disk contains a single file called datacab4. Does anyone know where the full manual is and/or how to get at it? Any help would be much appreciated.

    Can't Install Civ$ Gold...

    Hi, The 4th disk (the one called "behind the scenes DVD") is not recognized by the install program. I run in admin mode on a 64 bit Vista Home with 4-Gig Intel core 2 quad and a 512-MB Nvidia 9500GS. I also have Norton, and on one occasion I ran the install with autoprotect off to no...
