    Strange Problem with Alazkan

    I just installed FFH2 a week or so ago, after getting somewhat bored with standard Civ, and I have to say, I am very, very impressed with it: the different aspects of each religion is apparently the first thing that caught my eye :D Anyway, this is my first proper (i.e. a game I actually...

    Tribute to Other Civs Bug?

    On the top left box showing list of expenses, it says '139 to other civilizations.' Now, I don't recall giving any form of gpt payment to another civ. I just finished a lightning campaign against England (hence the unhappiness) and through it, my GNP suddenly plummeted from 200+ to the negative...

    Rule Britannia!

    I'm not a good Civ 5 player and I willingly admit it :lol: Still, I'm willing to learn and so I plan on starting a thread (even a series, if this proves to be successful) to help me and other struggling players progress. I normally play on Prince and I am quite confident of winning there so I...

    Handling a 'Won' Position

    I'm a chess player and one of the things that I have, for sometime, always hated was the so-called 'won' position: you haven't won yet, you're close, but there's still work to do. That also means that you can end up botching the whole thing and losing, which in turn means that you go round...

    Help on Sitting Bull (Emp) Game

    Alright, I haven't playedCiv IV for quite some time, so I thought that it would be a good idea to try and refresh my memory... on Emperor :lol: I first tinkered around with Darius and, well, that ended up as a romp as soon as I got to muskets + cannons :hammer: Then, I decided to try a game...

    Tips on Current Game

    Hi guys! Been giving Emp another go, as Liz this time... and, well, as usual, I'm stuck in knee-deep trouble.... I find myself very backwards in tech; is this normal, at least, the 'backwardness' I'm in? I mean, look at Caesar; he already has Currency! :cry: Tech path was...

    Cuir wars

    I've seen plenty of games where players just spam cuirs and roflstomp most (if not all) the civs in their game, thus an early domi date (assuming standard settings.) Yet I've never really seen a guideon how to do it. Therefore, I would assume that we all have our different styles of winning with...

    Help requested on Emperor Game

    Current status in the save; I want to ask what would you guys recommend me do :) I plan on halting Lib 1 turn before completion then beeline to steel and get cannons, followed by rifling then world domination :lol: However, scouting round using HAs reveals we *may* be able to take Hannibal down...

    Emperor Rant

    Episode 5 of the 'Rant' series :p I've won several games on Monarch and I believed it was time to step up a level and move on to Emperor... After rage-quitting playing HCapac, I decided to try the leader whom I consider is my favourite 'starting-a-new-level' leader; Louis XIV (yes...

    Monarch Rant (again XD)

    As far as I remember, this should be the 4th in a series of posts (pleas?) for help on Monarch :p Alright, I *think* I am progressing through my monarch games after a couple of weeks of resets, rage-quits and what-nots :lol: However, I still can not manage a win; I usually quit as soon as I...

    Help?

    Alright, so tried playing Hat on Monarch, Epic speed on a Pangaea map. Everything from the beginning turned out properly; managed to maintain a tech lead and completely eliminated a nearby enemy (Churchill) with a (war) chariot rush. Until I was locked in a series of wars with Charlemagne...

    Justinian on Monarch

    Hello all, quite new to this forum; been hanging around lately, reading, reading and reading, but finally decided to create an account :) Just got BTS a few weeks ago and by golly the BTS AI has been bumped up from what I've read... So, I decided to 'try' this tougher AI; played as Justinian...
