Anyone has had the chance to obtain one of those via patronage out of luck yet and tested whether non-venetian civs could still puppet/annex a random CS the same way as Maria Theresa can? Also a different topic but SS from the same game just the joys of the new SP system Pyramids...

Title says all. That was even a sea trade routes. Apparently having an injured worker on the path of 2 trade routes was enough to get me 400g from plundering the cargo ship trade routes...

Hi all, First, I want to apologize if this reads as a Wall-of-text. I needed to put my ideas out to the world to both get feedback and to read it myself. I will try to iterate on this guide over the next few weeks unless someone else comes up with a better guide. I have been somewhat busy...

Hello community, Again, I apologize if this has been discussed elsewhere but I couldn't find anything with the search engine. A recent replay of one of my favorite map saves was intended to test the extremely powerful big ben/mercantilism/militarism (autocracy) combo for bomber rush. For...

Hi all, as the title says, I'm looking to spend a couple hours to get a start that appears to be deity-occ-domination doable. Settings are as follow: Pangaea medium water level Standard civs#/cs# Only domination victory checked No enemy civ selection, no teams *maybe* legendary start...

VERY EASY MAP - Posters please use spoil tags, ty. Spain UA: Seven Cities of Gold: Doubles tile yields from Natural Wonders UU1: Tercio - Replaces Musketman. 26 str instead of 24. Also has 50% bonus vs mounted UU2: Conquistador - Replaces Knight, +2 sight, can found new cities on...

I'm sorry if the title is odd to read, I couldn't find any other way to draw some attention. Everything I write here is only from Deity anecdotes I have recently been tweaking the classical "steal CS worker on turns 20-30" to "steal a worker from a neighboring civ anywhere between turns...

Hi everyone, I read many deity pangaea rants around the forums. I too am an old school deity player returning well casually but anyway. I'm one of those crazy people who should go see a psycho according to Light Cleric in a different thread :). No matter how much I bash my head over deity...

Hi guys, been a while I haven't played (~10 months) and i picked up GnK on friday and finding the changes quite enjoyable. After a few games, I figured spying had a huge potential as a mean to overcome the deity gap so I went ahead and played with England. As I expected, I got to catch up to...

Well, I have had very little time to play the game since last patch and I must aknowledge I kept struggling at setting up a strong position without gimmick map/civ setup with the standard liberty opener. Now lately I went back to an old aim for an opener that leaves most game plans availible...

Well as much as I would like to bring a strategy to pull this, I have been very busy since last patch and am looking for help from fellow CFC members to pull this out. My only deity win since patch was babylon OCC legendary start on archipelago (yeah i know very gimmick but had to test...

Well I had been gone for a little over a week and wanted to play a continents map as a change from pangaea Figured I'd try Ghandi for once. Was planning to dominate my continent through LS rush but I found out around turn 35 that I was alone on a continent. Get a free settler and settle...

So anyway I start a game on Deity, random leader random map standard size and speed. I meet Alexander on turn 4, he's hostile already...wtf? Chatty Alex opens the tab on turn 5, your empire appears to be quite puny! On turn 5...really? Chatty Alex opens the tab on turn 6, Alex has...

Settings : Deity, standard speed, standard size, either pangaea/great plains/continents or similar maps that guarantees having a few neighbors somewhat close. Disclaimer : I have only been playing civ5 seriously for a little over a month. Used to be a laid-back low level builder/wonder...

Well here's the time for another question. I was wondering if anyone had attempted to number crunch the strength of the Educated Elite policy in the patronage tree (allied CSs may occasionnally gift you great people). I know "random" GP is not as good as selected GP for a predefined strat but...

I'm new to Deity play, got my lifetime first Deity win through a domination game as Japan. Maltz 1vs7 tackle got me motivated. Yet, all along the game, it felt as if the Mongols' Khan(which I played up to immortal) would've given me a much more significant edge. On top of those 2, it feels as...

Looking to tackle my first immortal game with the mongols after reading about Khan's. I was simply wondering if their +2 healing to nearby units stacked with the Medic promotion that units can get. I was also wondering if it was a "increases unit healing by 2" or an actual "heal friendly...
