I feel like the Pantheon system in V and VI are a bit underwhelming, especially when they are overshadowed by "formal" religions (that is not to mention some of the formal religions today ARE polytheistic AKA have a pantheon). I also feel like the Pantheon doesn't live up to its name, you end...

I've seen different levels of housing in the Neighbourhoods shown in the game: from small houses to large bungalows and on to tall flats. Is the type of housing in the Neighbourhood dependent on how much Housing it gets based on tile appeal, or you can upgrade the houses by your own? If it's the...

I was wondering, were there any firearms or artillery made to counter cavalry from the colonisation period until 1900? Note that parts of a weapon do not count (eg bayonets on muskets). I'm asking for guns specialised in taking down mounted soldiers.

One gripe I have with VI is that Wonders take up valuable tiles - tiles that otherwise could be used for districts or other improvements. If only Wonders can act as functional districts or buildings. Examples: The Eiffel Tower can replace the Monument in the city centre. The Zollverein can be...

I see many vehicular units, like the Modern Armour, Mechanised Infantry and the Artillery have colour variations (tan, blue, green and black). What does this denote?

I'm no experienced Civ fan. I first started with IV (which I played sparingly) and only played with Civ V the most. But of course, this place is teeming with veterans who played civ since Civ I or II, maybe even III. I want to ask these more experienced ones out of all of us: What do you...

Question: Can you still control which city has control of certain tiles? Example: Kyoto and Tokyo are 5 tiles apart, and the middle tile (3rd tile from both cities) is under Kyoto. Can I transfer its control to Tokyo? What if Kyoto has a district there? If I can transfer the district...

So Kumasi, the capital of what was the Ashanti Confederacy, is a City-State too. I'm surprised that Firaxis didn't include them as a civ yet, I just read that they have more historiography than any other Sub-Saharan culture.

I was wondering whether Districts would work like Civ V's Great Person Improvements if built over a strategic resource. For example, if I build an Aerodrome over the tile with Horses, will I still get the Horses (without its yield that is)? If Uranium appears on the tile where I built a Theatre...

I understand this topic would cover the entire main Civ series, however there isn't a forum section for Civ in general, thus I put it here. Any actions by the mods to move it are welcome. So the idea of WWII foot infantrymen upgrading to mechanised infantry riding inside armoured vehicles...

I was thinking, with districts and certain improvements getting adjacency bonuses from certain terrain, resources, districts or even wonders, why not extend the bonuses to some other improvements as well. For instance, a sawmill may benefit from having uncleared woods adjacent to the tile it's...

AAAnd you think I will say "G+K. Not even once." eh? NOPE. Why did Firaxis scrap both Mass Media and Telegraph? Does a 'religion and espionage' expansion not need propagation? What about televangelism? Don't spies need to tap into communications networks? Won't Beach and his guys fix this...

Yep, thread title says it all. How much do you think the leaders in Civ5 look like the ones in real life? Below is my analysis on the current 23. You can have your say about all 24 of them (I hear the Danish are coming). George: Almost exactly like in real life. No surprise here. Harun: I...

It happened one Ancient night. Catherine contacted Wu Zetian, and asked her to join in an alliance against Alexander. With some consideration, and since some of her troops are out exploring, Wu Zetian replied that she would prepare in 10 turns. 10 turns later, most of Wu Zetian's archers were...

How do I include music for a civ I created? I just created a new civ through modding, and right now I need to get the music for the civ. (Say I created a European civ, now I want European music to play when I play as the new civ instead of the intro.)
