    Is there a mod for BNW that adds a city planner tool?

    Kind of like the alt+X tool in the Civ IV bug mod that stamps down a city overlay on the landscape, so that you plan future city sites? Thanks!

    If a CS gifts me a mounted unit, does it use one of MY horses?

    If so, it's not much of a gift. :confused:

    If you value your brain cells, don't read the 1 star reviews of BNW on Amazon.

    But here's a link in case you want a reason to kill yourself. http://tinyurl.com/lg43erf I don't have it yet, but isn't BNW supposed to be pretty good? These idiots on Amazon shouldn't be allowed to play Civ.

    Change main menu image?

    There's many great images in G&K's loading screen, but I don't like the main menu screen. Can I replace it with one of the loading screen images? Thanks. Moved to C&C.

    my DLC disappeared??

    Huh? All of my downloaded civs and leaders are now gone from Civ V? WTF? Did this happen to anyone else?

    Civ V is Tom Chick's #1 most disappointing game release of the year.

    http://fidgit.com/archives/2010/12/the_ten_most_disappointing_gam.php#more I certainly disagree with Singularity and Fallout: NV.

    I think I've found an annoying aspect of AI trading behavior.

    In my current game, I am Gandhi. I share a continent with Bismarck, Montezuma, Hiawatha, Alexander, and Washington. We're all friends but Alexander. I have three cities, and I am at about +4 happiness. All of my friends have seven or eight cities. When the latest "people who smile the most"...

    To those who have, up until now, not been happy with Civ V...

    After playing with the latest patch, have you changed your minds at all? Speak freely, I won't argue, I'm just interested in people's opinions... Thanks guys.

    Since the update, I can no longer press "R" to show resource icons...

    I have to press ctrl + R...but, I can still press just "Y" and "G" to show yield and the grid. Weird...

    check out this (strategically) cool starting position.

    I'm surrounded by mountains to the north, a river to the south...and on turn 1, my warriors popped a ruin and became spearmen...and a bunch of plains and hills and flood plains... :goodjob:

    How do I use nuclear subs with nuclear missiles?

    How do I put a nuke on the sub, and I do I launch it from the sub? Thanks.

    The Glory of Rome

    Here's my game setup, I've decided to try Rome for this AAR. I want to give Augustus Caesar's "the Glory of Rome" special ability a try. This gives a boost to build any building in any secondary city, if that structure already exists in Rome. I'm going with a continents map, this is my...

    what are the hot-keys for resources and yield?

    ctrl-R and ctrl-Y don't seem to work anymore.

    confused about trade routes

    Are the only trade routes in Civ V between my secondary cities and my capital? Can I not increase the number of trade routes or establish them with the other civs or city-states? Are there buildings that increase trade routes or the revenue from them? Trade routes seem to be something...

    After playing for a while...some things I like, some things I don't:

    But I definitely mostly like...! I think Civ V is a fantastic game overall, the more I play the more I like. Things I like- hexes 1UPT ranged units that fire at range! diplomacy additions, such as new pacts and agreements. strategic units limited by strategic resources. city states...

    where does it show what resources a city is collecting?

    am I missing it? In the Civ IV city screen on the right there was a nice list of all resources and their benefits. I can't seem to find this in Civ V...

    very disappointed in graphics.

    I'm playing at max settings, DX11 and this is terrible. Civ IV Colonization had much better graphics than this. In Civ IV every tree swayed in the breeze, you could zoom in nice and close and see waves lapping on the shore, there was waves and white water in the rivers. None of this is in Civ...

    Flood plains?

    according to the manual (pg 32), flood plains have the exact same effect and value as a grassland. Is this right? In Civ IV flood plains produced much more food at the expense of being unhealthy. This pretty much renders flood plains useless...
