The Australia faction that I'd push myself would be less representative of modern Australia but rather late colonial Australia. With Light Horse as the UU *Cavalry with Defensive Bonuses* and Showground as the UB *Replaces circus, can be built where there are sheep, cattle, horses or wheat*...

Its not a 9 out of 10 Game. Its a 7.5, 8 out of ten game. That is still a pretty good score. And problems get fixed. Wait till the Christmas sale, and most should be done then

Menzies is controversial (whose only real achievement is being the longest serving PM... and selling Pig Iron to Imperial Japan); so is the other key choice, Chifley, as they are clearly viewable in a political bias. My choices for an apolitical Australian leader head would be Henry Parkes...

I think, the simple fact is, even if your gunning for Domination or Science or Culture; you should really not neglect gaining power and prestige in the World Congress; to prevent bad things from happening to you there

I saw the more detailed description on PC Gamer, and thought; "wow, I would >really< like to play that game" Its definitely an interesting concept on what an MMO is

I didn't see a Vietnam in there, which is far more deserving than most on the list

Perhaps because there is no need to swap them? The theming bonuses that require music do not require different civ's music

Civilopedia; under the Policies tab

^^ I was playing Byzantine on King level the other day. I was first to get the pantheon, first to get the religion, but last to get the Reformation and Enhancer beliefs. And I had taken Pilgrimage as my founders belief too >_<

I was sharing a border with Shaka as Venice. Simply put, I put almost all my army in that area; and he kept away. I think if you have military assets in the area, you decrease the chances of being "Shakalized"

Not just vanilla. Its happened in my game too. Its proberly a bug

Nukes are great like that. Morocco in one game got nukes first, and he popped up and said, "Our words are backed by Nuclear Weapons" in the olde civ 2 way. So I went and brought myself a couple of nukes, and the whole world was afraid of me...

I saw some whales; does that count?

Not really... Buy banks and marketplaces in your puppets, gardens too if you can. The Puppet States should work these, as they are set to gold production, and hence get you your great merchant. But really, there isn't much you can physically do.

I'd say if you can get it; But it'd be lower on your priority list than say, the hanging gardens. The only time I've ever gotten both was as a Egypt Prince start with the ancient wonders pantheon

Get it Blitz, and it becomes the perfect unit to capture post nuked cities.

Thanks for that; I was wondering why my citystate borders weren't expanding

^^ something I've noticed playing the Venice a bit; is the Tradition opener doesn't work on the puppeted citystates. And the addition of the aqueducts and monuments is sometimes hit and miss... Anyway; I''m thinking a Piety venice start would be worthwhile too; get Tithe and spread it about for...

It was steam that messed up, not Firaxis. They have no control over Steam's sale prices, so you should direct your hate to them, Killbray

>looks at timer, 26 hours to go< Any idea if RotW get preload?
