    Bug with a culture flipped city

    I was playing as Austria and got Freedom named as World Ideology. China, running Order, had a city flip to me which used to belong to Siam. I clicked 'liberate' because it wasn't a city I wanted. The city colour changed from China's green to Siam's yellow. Then the 'Choose Production' button...

    Winning the Space Race with an aluminium monopoly?

    I was playing a game recently where I was neck and neck with Korea in tech. ... Okay, I'll be honest, they were quite ahead of me. They had their first booster done while I was just finishing the Apollo Program. I caught up by faith buying Great Scientists and spending a Great Engineer on the...

    Starting a game in a later era

    My husband kept telling me that going to war with bombers was fun, but I was generally finishing the game before getting them. So I started a new game in the Industrial Era so I could be sure I wouldn't get bored and go for a victory before I could try it out. It was SO much fun! Usually, by...

    On having and eating of cake

    Crazy idea I just had... ... wouldn't it be awesome to play a super game where every unique building and unit was available? And while we're making it a super game, how about being able to give your leader 4 traits instead of just two? Just imagine the havoc an Aggressive, Charismatic...

    Is there a OCC club?

    I've been having fun with the One City Challenge. Are there any group plays with this theme similar to the Noble's Club or the Lonely Hearts Club? Because I'd totally dig that. :) Edit: After learning that there is no current club, but interest in one, I am thinking of starting one. Join in...

    Adobe Flash plugin crashing? Is this just me?

    I can't log in to CivWorld anymore, because I get a message that the Adobe Flash plugin has crashed. I rebooted, made sure everything was up to date - you know, all the usual stuff. This was in Firefox, so I tried to login from Chrome - same thing. The error message was different, but basically...

    Tech mazes are overpowered

    I've finally gotten the knack for maze solving, but the rewards are waaaay out of proportion to the rewards for the culture or caravan minigames. The most I've ever won from a caravan was 800. You can get a good streak going and build up a lot of culture in the puzzle swap, but you'll still be a...

    Leaving a Civ mid-game: What do you take with you?

    Of course FAR be it from me to backstab my allies :mischief: but what happens when you leave a civ mid-game? What do you keep and what stays with your former civ? I would assume your population and buildings are yours. What about hammers, gold, and food? What about techs? Armies? Anything else I...

    Civ makes my laptop run hot - any advice?

    Civilization makes my laptop run hot. I use a Belkin cooling pad when I'm at home, but I'm going to be travelling soon and the cooling pad is too bulky to take on the airplane. (Civ is an excellent way to pass the tedious hours stuffed into sardine class, btw :p) Is there anything I can do...

    Culture tile chosen poorly

    The culture expansion wants this flatland tile instead of either the Gold or the Dye. I haven't teched Animal Husbandry yet, so it's possible it's a horse tile, but I'd still consider it a bug.

    Need an option to turn off DLC

    I like to play succession games, and since everyone doesn't have Babylon, and that problem will only get worse as more DLC is released, an option in the game setup to exclude DLC would be good to have. Probably needed for multiplayer too. Of course the workaround is to have a player without...

    Are Civ V avatars coming?

    I know it's not the highest priority, but it would be cool to see the CiV leaderhead medallions from the game setup menu as avatar choices. Sure, I already have my CiV avatar, but I'd like seeing more of the CiV art around the forums. :)

    Yekaterina II Velikaya - first game playthrough

    "I think we can make a home here..." Catherine listened outside the tent flap as her father in law detailed his vision of the future. It was glorious... glorious... And then... the story finished, and she waited for Peter to say something. Anything. :cringe: Bumbling dunderhead...

    I hate the foreign advisor!

    Why did they have to make her sound like such an airhead? "So Tyre wants us to wipe out Helsinki. Sounds cruel, but I'm sure there's a very good reason for it." You can almost hear the "Teehee!" after that. :hammer2: I'd much rather she say something useful, like explaining what I did to...
