    [GS] Score Victory.

    Score Victory is easiest to complete using online speed, with a largish map.

    Captured Settler not able to found city?

    Most probably you're not over three tiles from another city.

    City Combat guide. Any eyes out there.

    Will check in my current game.

    City Combat guide. Any eyes out there.

    I will be watching out for this in my next game. I am fairly sure I took over a Builder in my last game, but not 100% certain.

    [GS] Domination thoughts

    I've noticed that sometimes when I attack a civ, and begin to take a city or two, suddenly their army seems to have disappeared. They must have deleted their units for some reason. That does seem to be a strange way to defend!

    City Combat guide. Any eyes out there.

    When a city is captured, all units within it are destroyed. Unless the unit is a Builder or a Settler, when they become the property of the captor. (I think this is still true for both, it's certainly still true for Builder). Excellent guide, btw.

    [Vanilla] Skip turn

    It could be that there is another unit of the same type on the same tile. You need to move one or the other, as only one unit of each type is allowed on one tile.

    [GS] Hall of Fame...

    Hmm... I've not even looked at HoF... didn't seem a lot of point when I had played all the Civs, difficulties, speeds, and sizes, before GS. Might have a look now, see what it does show!

    Diplomatic Victory Dogpile

    The problem with giving extra to those who are ahead at certain points, or era ends, is that it would tend to encourage runaways.

    Choose your upgrade

    Perhaps Infantry should be +1 movement, as a result of the oil requirement?

    Has anyone ever seen the AI make a national park?

    In my current game, Sweden has built a national park (I'm playing Suleiman)... it's not very common, but they do. I've seen the AI build a few resorts too.

    Firaxis Games is just trolling us now...

    There is also the Corinth Canal, which has a long interesting history too wiki , although it is really only a tourist attraction now.

    Is Total War getting more popular than Civ at the moment?

    I would have said that Endless Space 2 is a better game than Total War. I would also say that Total War appeals to less folk than Civ VI. The best 2 games in the genre at present (imho) are Civ VI and Endless Space 2. I play both, and enjoy both.

    Poland is too strong

    That's ok on lower levels, but won't work on the higher ones when, at that stage, you're well behind the others because of their assisted starts. I've even had my religion eradicated before I've been able to build an apostle/missionary before now.

    Poland is too strong

    Why not try playing Kongo, where you can't build a holy site, and encourage other civs to send their missionaries and apostles to you (you still get the benefit of any other religion that is in over 50% of your cities, even more than one (iirc))? Also, if you really don't like religion, you can...

    City States all bunched together

    Altering these sort of parameters are likely to give unpredictable results, as we don't yet know what other parameters are linked to them. A better way to increase the space between yourself and AI civs is to lower the number of AI civs on any given map. This will not affect the distribution...

    This is How You Play Nubia on Diety

    Hmm... when I clicked for this thread, I thought it was saying that Amanitore should be on a diet! This is one, rather boring way, to win on Deity, there are many more interesting ways. Most civs can be won on deity, as long as you get a good initial position.
