Players mention tall play being dead due to being unable to capitalize on huge populations. But tall play was never about populations, rather being able to maintain pace with the empire which is spamming cities far and wide. I wonder if this element still remains through small, highly...

We all know BNW has harsher penalties on waging war, but how are you guys dealing with it? I just got out of a game where I was planning on domination. Game was going great, one of my best as far as science goes. I hit Atomic era at around T240. Long story short: I am completely...

At higher difficulties is it necessary to abuse RA's/GS's? The scenario: Standard map, standard speed. Difficulty 6 or 7. I start out at a good pace, the civs near by fall before me. Yet the mystery civ on the other side of the map (continent) is racking up the points score. 1400's...
