Hello, weekend's coming and it's time for a new Deity Challenge! This time, you'll be playing with good buddy Gustavus Adolphus. But why Sweden, you might ask, considering it's not even a new civ? At least in theory, Sweden seems to be one of the old civs that benefits the most from BnW. The...

So, been waiting for a while until someone posted a DC with Brave New World, and since it's been a week and nobody did it I'll go ahead and post one. In this game, you'll be playing with Pedro II, my namesake! In my opinion, Brazil is a very hard to play civ at Deity level, simply because...

What kind of timetable you follow when deciding to go for an early Wonder (considering you're alone on the map and don't need to build a lot of troops early, as this usually precludes any Ancient or Classical stuff)? I usually go GL when I can complete it around turn 35-40, and Oracle straight...
