    Which Civs are easy mode?

    So I am just trying to wrap up my last few achievements and was going for rivals on ice ( I hate achievements like this btw where I have to rely on AI doing something) and I played as Russia on a world map TSL. Good god did I dominate the whole game. I did the combination of dance of the...

    Best Civs to make a Huge TSL Earth Map realistic?

    So I love playing TSL maps and trying to make them realistic as possible and I was recently thinking about since we are limited in the civs we could put on a map ( I believe it is 20 max for a huge map) that would make it the best playable experience. Main factors I would consider are...

    Need help understanding tile yields

    So I took a hiatus from the game and started playing again after 2 years and decided to get some achievements. I am playing a game as Maori on TSL Earth Map with corporations, secret societies and heroes enabled. I ended up being able to settle all of the Americas with no competition and won a...

    How does spy loyalty drop work?

    People say that they use this to flip cities, but I have never really had luck with it and maybe its because I don't understand it correctly. It says it drops loyalty in the city by -25. Is that on a per turn basis for some length of time or is that just total? Because it reads as total, and...

    [GS] Coasting Flooding Question

    So I am trying to understand the requirements for the stonehenge achievement to coastal flood it. Will the ONLY times to flood be the ones that say they are coastal lowlands? I have seen 1 and 3 and they always say coastal lowlands and give a meter. So does that mean that any tile that doesn't...

    Fresh Water not shown correctly with Settler

    I am playing on Gathering Storm. Usually when you build a settler, it is various shades of green and red for where you can build cities and whether they have fresh water or not. Right now in my game whenever I have a settler selected...everything is blue. Even the key in the corner of the...

    Why no map replay?

    One of the biggest things I miss is the map replay. One of my biggest disappoints in my recent TSL game was that while I could see the map and see how each civ fared, I didn't get to really see a replay of them expanding and how things played out. I know its minor, but to me its honestly one of...

I have built all of the other wonders that I can leaving those 2 in place. Yet he won't build them. Its like he knows that I...

    Scouts need a buff

    I have been thinking about this and noticed after reading threads and just playing the game in general...scouts definitely need a buff. 1. Scouts upgrade but it is far too late. Basically at anytime during the game they will be instantly killed by almost anything. 2. The promotion for double XP...

    Not being able to sometimes move units?

    I have had this happen in 3 games now and I am not sure if this is a bug or I am missing something in the gameplay. So I will have a unit, lets say a scout and it is exploring or finishing a route I gave it. It has 2 movement points left and is near a barbarian that will definitely kill it so I...

    Am I screwed out of this achievement?

    I am currently trying to get the achievement with gandhi for getting +35 using his ability. For this to happen, it appears that all 7 civs need to be at peace. Well I have only revealed my starting continent so far, but one of the founders of one of the other religions was eliminated from the...

    Warmonger penalties are out of control

    So I tend to play peacefully in this game. My last game I had 3 civs that were declared friends with me. Only 1 civ in the game didn't like me, rest were neutral. I had not been at war in this game at all. I declared a Causi Belli War that would result in a "moderate" warmonger penalty. What...

    I am trying to get the achievement...there is contamination there...a worker has the option...I can't seem to find the option for the legion though. Saw a video of someone doing it too...and I don't the button. Why does nothing in this game work? Am I being dumb and missing the button...

    Relics are ridiculously good for tourism

    I was just playing a game as France and there was a lot of circumstances that went into it I believe, but wow did this strategy pay off quickly. I decided to focus on religion and tourism for a cultural victory. Build wonders as I could due to being France but the real key to winning was the...

    Constant asking for gifts?

    I am doing my first domination victory and of course everyone has denounced me. The thing I was not intending was instead of asking for deals now they constantly ask me for one sided deals, aka gifts. It goes through each AI doing this and it gets really annoying. I have no reason to give one of...

    Government Strategy?

    What governments do you usually use for which victory types? I myself am a peaceful player and find myself using the same governments over and over. classical republic > merchant republic > Democracy with little variation. Though I will say that in my last game I was going for a religion...

    How are possible trade route destinations decided?

    In my last game I had city A which was on the coast of a continent. This city was never able to trade with AI cities that were on another continent, also on the coast. It wasn't until I built a city on that same continent that I was able to make a sea trade route to them...why couldn't I make a...

    District Population Limits & Tourism

    I just completed a game where I was going for the achievement "District 12" where I needed to build a lot of districts ( not actually all of them as the game implies though, just 12, including city center). Anyways, I noticed yet another part of the game that the civilopedia seems to be sorely...

    What does it mean to siege a city?

    One of the achievements is to put a city under siege. However, I don't actually know what this means. It doesn't mean just attacking a city...is it something to do with boats?
