I'm a decent-ish player with no difficulty dominating on Emperor, but when playing Immortal I always feel weak - especially during the early game. I find that on Immortal I am paralyzed by options early - I want to build settlers, military for defense or early conquest, districts, get tech &...

I have an issue with the way emergencies are handled in the game currently. While I like emergencies generally and think they add good flavor to the single player game, they currently do not live up to their potential or even their name - there is no urgency to them. As an example, I was...

I've recently got discouraged playing Emperor because of the huge tech disparity between myself and the AIs later in the game - after about the Renaissance, they just pose no threat (and sometimes earlier than that). I therefore decided to try Immortal, and played my first immortal game using...

I've never really been satisfied with my early game play in Civ VI. I consistently feel simultaneously very rushed and incredibly sluggish. The early game (which I am defining loosely as the first 100 turns) has a ton of things that need to be done: Build a basic military to defend against...

I recently installed Gods & Kings, and started a game as Carthage. I started extremely close to Austria (to my south), while Babylon was quite far to my west and the Dutch were very, very far to the south - Austria was in between us. Atilla and Elizabeth were quite far away, but in contact. I...

I started up a game as Carthage, but I notice that my two cities don't have a trade route between them. They both have free harbors (which is awesome), and I have researched Sailing and have explored the coast in between the cities. They are on the same land mass. Is there something I am...

Lets say that my empire lacks coal, so I trade with China to get some, which lasts for 30 turns. In those 30 turns, I use the coal to build a couple of factories and some ironclads. After the 30 turns are up, I loose the coal, and I now have "-5" displayed in the coal box. Does this...

I recently started playing CiV again, and became embroiled in a war with Alexander (surprise!). Due to poor planning on his part, Alexander's troops were slaughtered, and I was poised to take Sparta. At this point, Alexander offered peace - as the price, he offered all of his gold, luxuries...

At the beginning of my games, I feel like my cities are doing things in slow motion. Building anything (other than perhaps a scout) and researching both seem to take forever - I just can't seem to get anything done in a reasonable amount of time. Early wonders are generally built before I...

I have encountered a rather confusing diplomatic situation - I'd appreciate insight into the cause of this and also advice on how to get myself out of it. Playing on King, as Arabia. America to my south (the only appreciably close civilization), France to the south of them, Songhai far to my...
