So, I was arguing with a friend on the forum (hope you don't mind me calling you that!) about the optimum time to whip a granary in. I felt that the discussion was threatening to derail the thread, so I thought I'd start a new one. Anyway, my thought was that the best time to whip the...

I've always felt that Drill promotions are the most interesting. A recent thread has brought them back up, so I decided to do some of the math around them. If you're mathphobic, you might want to just give this a miss. EDIT: It looks like this has all been done before, and by people much...

Well, it's that time again. Seems like there's a new wave of topics on slavery yet again. Anyway, a recent discussion got me thinking about whipping unhappy citizens away. Traditionally, people whip 2 citizens such that they grow the next turn and then take 10 turns to grow again. That...

Alright, I just started a new game (warning: Marathon game and using BULL as mod, not custom assets). I decided that I was getting bored of Monarch difficulty and wanted to see if I could learn more from failure, so I rolled out a Deity level game with Random Leaders. I ended up with Joao...

No, I'm not asking how to become a lawyer ;) I decided to get BUG/ BULL and installed it as a mod. I liked it (who doesn't, right?) so I'd like to move it to custom assets. How do I move everything over? If I do, will I be able to play multiplayer if the other guy doesn't have BUG/ BULL...

Hi guys. It's been awhile since I've posted here. Looking for a job, and all that jazz. Anyway, taking a step back, I've noticed something interesting about the sacrifical altar (the UB of the Aztecas). I used to love this bad boy with an unholy fixation, but I've now decided it's not all...

Does anybody know the rules for giving away cities? I'm trying to use a tip I'd heard about giving away a useless city so that the enemy won't attack me. I imagine it's distance-based. Any other restrictions? Also, how much of a benefit is it? Does it just use the +4 our trades have been...

Ok, I've made it to turn 265 (late 1700's) in the Lonely Hearts Club LXIX (Montezuma) game. I'm poised to get five or six corps, thanks to both a tech lead and some luck. If you're curious, I'm going to post some screenshots and the save in that thread Now, I usually don't get this far...
