Playing my first real game since the patch. Dropped down to King just to get a feel. I'm playing France, nearby is England, America, and Persia. I moved my opening settler and I have at least 4 silver in my first two rings (and being France I have them ALL in range very quickly). England...

For the sake of argument lets assume 1-upt is not going away - it does present some interesting choke point/defense/offense decisions BUT for every one of those there seems to be at least twice as many instances where it is just burdensome and/or annoying. I had the idea about "merging" two...

So I am early in a new game last night (Emporer/Continents/Siam) and I'm at war with Monty and the only approach to the only city I can attack due to landmass/ocean is his captial - I've got iron and am attacking with 2 swords (more inbound)/2 cats and an archer or two. He's captial is on a...

Not going to necro my own (old) thread but I am wondering if people are experiencing the same thing as me - we all love it when the AI has enough gold for RA's and such but there are times when it just seems ridiculous how MUCH gold an AI is accumulating per turn. My current game...

I've played a couple games post patch mostly at King level (and I saw somewhat similar before) - since I'm usually playing on Small maps (end of turn wait more than anything) it's not too hard to keep track of what's going on with regards to run away Civs. My game before last Lizzy was well...

I won a space victory today (Siam/King/Continents) without any real challenge. Toward the end Catherine was getting a bit obnoxious and I was building military in my non-space cities in the event she tried a late military intervention. Just to see what the new city defense/heal mechanics...

I've been playing King (moving up today I think) and ever since I played a game with Egypt I've really been loving chariot archers for an early game rolling thunder approach. Assuming there is at least a little open ground within 2 hexes of your target city it is so easy to push a unit in...

After some fun and some dissatisfaction with the Vanilla game I downloaded the CCMAT mod pack- I believe there is a mod pack called city builder or some such. I was playing King/Standard/Continents/Small and I picked Monty thinking I would be going full war early of course I end up on an...

I'm enjoying the game (which makes me a heretic to 50% of you) but I think I've settled on what bothers me a bit about 1upt - as others have mentioned it seems to lack a certain epic scale of battle and presents weird (imho) requirements like archers and cannons having the same range. I was...
