yes, it's worth, especially in the bargin bin. However, don't get caught up in fact that it is not the same as the PC Civ games. It is a more fast paced version of those games, with much less detail. Less detail is not a bad thing for what this game is trying to be. It's a Civ game that...

yes, it is. You should move your settler around at the start, try to find other civs, or barbs you can take as soon as you settle. It's always best to rush a warrior. Usually I'll rush the first warrior, maybe make one more, and then switch both workers to tech, and research Horseback...

we're hosting some right now. We're planning on doing 6 groups of 6 players for this tournament, each group winner will play in a championship group. Go to 2kforums, the civrev section, and look under the multiplayer section for the round robin tournaments. Group 2 is almost full, and once that...

You don't need a dedicated gold city that early. Why? Because you don't have the ability to build markets, and you probably don't have access to resources. It's better to use your early cities in unison to either get gold, or get science, but you need workers on production in the early game. I...

I just wanted to post a video of a game I played with another experienced player, I've posted some videos on here before, but it's been a while since I've played the game. I'm a little rusty, so the game could be played better. Don't be too quick to dismiss my opponet as weak, he's actually a...

This actually is not a good idea, and it's against the rules of the forum. A place for people to semi-anonymously accuse players of cheating is not really constructive. Yeah, it would be nice to know all the names of the true cheaters, but in a glitchy game such as civrev, if you play long...

added a few more videos for you guys to watch. :)

I thought a video archive would be good, as I'm making more and more videos uploaded to YouTube, and would like to provide a place for people to find the links without having to search through threads. If you have any suggestion for videos to be added to this archive, please let me know...

It takes more resources to acheive a culture win than others. Yes, you can conquer a few cities w/ wonders or steal some GPs, but a culture win than is pre 500AD takes a really great start, some luck in having the AI building the right wonders, and getting to Industrialization really fast, which...

most strategies tend to focus heavily on the early game, because that is the most predictable part of the game, or the easiest to plan for. Most of the good strategies that are written try to set you up with a solid foundation from which you can best decide how to proceed. That being said...

personal records: Domination: 2900BC, though I have pulled off a 3100BC on Chieftan, but that doesn't count. Eco: 200AD Culture: 450AD Tech: 500AD I don't play much single player, except for Game of the Week every now and then, but I used to playa lot, and won all the victories with all...

I did lots of stats, all on deity level. Mainly to test out "special named" units that don't receive any bonus, to dispell the myth that these units actually get some kind of hidden bonus, and they didn't. I recorded a few hundred battles of horsemen and knights vs. all different kinds of...

While it may seem to be this way, it's really not. The AI does not get some hidden defensive bonus on Deity. It's just normal. It may have to do with conditions being a little tougher for you to get the units to the other guy quick enough, or just a few unlucky battles, but it all evens out...

the most conventional way to win a domination victory is to get an advanced tech like Feudalism or Combustion, and then strike before the enemy more advanced defenders like riflemen or modern infantry. But, the Germans are one of the few civs that do not need to be in the tech lead to win a...

I recommend looking at the strategy articles on this forum, there are plenty of good ones that should show you how to set up your civ for any type of victory. The Germans are pretty good for a domination victory. There's many ways to do it, with their most powerful way being upgrading their...

expansion might mean more defense needed, but typically it just means that you need to figure out where you need to defend. If you defend a lot of cities heavily, then you probably are wasting hammers or gold. If you have a bunch of cities, then it's easier to produce units and allocate them to...

Don't build a wall! 100 hammers for a little extra defense really isn't that great. Especially in your cap, since it only gives you 50% defense boost in your cap, compared to the 100% in other cities. Walls are really not useful. There's so many more things you can do with 100 hammers, beakers...

The Aztecs are one of the easiest civs to learn a horserush with. It's kind of like horserushing for dummies (not saying your a dummy if you haven't tried it ;)) A focus on expansion and defense isn't a bad way to play the game at all, but for the Aztecs, they really need to take advantage of...

You need more cities. The Great Library is one of the worst wonders, because you only get the techs that 2 other civs have already researched, which means it's only beneficial if you are behind in tech to 2 civs. The AI techs way slower than you ever need to, so putting a focus on this...

Interesting thoughts on this, but it's not very accurate. It's not just about comparing the straight up hammers and gold, and then the total tech output, it's a lot more than that. But, either way, more settlers will beat a library pretty much every time, even with civs that have growth from the...
