Some units with a 3 radius attack, like artillery and the English longbowmen, should wake up from being on alert when an enemy comes within 3 radius of them. Instead, they have the same radius from alert as someone with only a 1 or 2 radius attack.

I adopted freedom, and my unhappiness is huge. I looked at the unhappiness listing and there is 41 unhappiness from public opinion (A desire for a new ideology) Why is it so high? I remember it being just as high when I adopted order in a previous game. Shouldn't freedom be the lowest...

I have an improvement from a great person, a science academy. Later on in the game it says oil is found on that tile. I looked at my oil count and it shows 7 oil, so I believe it came from there. Does a strategic resource found on a great person improvement automatically get worked? So I don't...

I'm starting a domination only game with a dozen civs. I want an ideology that counters the massive happiness hit I will take by capturing enemy cities. What is the best path to take?

The AI sucks at managing big empires. I'm about 700 turns in, and every big civ has really big unhappiness. Apparently the AI doesn't get many happiness bonuses anymore? I'm playing on normal.

I am so tired of the Earth map. I love the layout, but the map is just broken. There are never enough resources on the largest size for 12 players. Every time I play there is some resource that is not found in most places. Right now I started in South America. There are absolutely no horses...

The turn right after we declare each other friends, they come begging me for something, free gold, free resource, etc. Wow are they beggers now! Why can't they propose trades where they give up some resources for that gold they want? Why does it always have to be blatant begging?

After capturing a civ's city and making it my own, progressing into new eras doesn't change the fishing boats. They still stay the same as the era you captured the city in. This has always been there since vanilla V.

I'm playing a custom game, epic speed, and yet a pantheon is founded after turn 25? How is this possible? It seems half the AI magically found a pantheon then a religion leaving me unable to catch up. What makes them do so this quickly?

I think if you don't have an open borders pact with a civ, they shouldn't be able to open up trade routes with you.

I wish the rivers were bigger so you could move a ship on rivers inland. Is there a map that has bigger rivers so you can do this?

I think the inquisitor is useless, can only remove religion once! The missionary can only add religion twice. The great prophet is the only strong unit that can not only spread religion multiple times but it automatically removes the other religions. So why is there such a discrepancy between...

I'm so tired of my starting position being the worst out of all the civs. I always am never around any important resources, no matter what map I select. In the early game, no horses, then later no iron, after that of course, no oil or aluminum anywhere near me. But it's always abundant near all...

I hate how the Ai always has a dozen cities so few turns into a game. How best to stop this expansion? I like playing on large maps but with a few less civs than the map allows. So the largest map possible but with only 8-10 civs instead of 12. I just wish the AI stopped sending settlers all...

I'd like to see the world around you actually be affected by what you do. For example, if you chop down all the trees to make mines or lumber mills, there should be pollution that hurts population growth, for example. And using nukes shouldn't be able to clean up so easily like it is now, with...

I'd like to see more environment interaction. Ice regions melt or expand depending on weather. Raising or lowering of sea levels. Pollution based on number of large cities and forest cleared. More negative long lasting impact of nuclear weapons. This would add more fun to long lasting games.

I wish nuclear attacks were more harmful, instead of being able to repair the damage by a worker. It should make the land uninhabitable for a while, and make all the other civs hate you for using those weapons.

I'm struggling to keep an army of 3 archers and 4 melee units without my gold dipping negative. Yet here are all the AI around me with 10 or more military units? How can they afford them only a few dozen turns in? And still have positive gold reserves to not be hit with research penalties?

I'm about 100 turns into a game, and England seems to only build range units. Specifically Longbowmen and Catapults. They are attacking my cities with 6 catapults and 6 longbowmen. Of course they are doing a great job but they obviously cannot capture the city without regular skirmish units...

I've taken 2 cities, surrounded a 3rd, and the AI comes at me with a request to end the war, all they ask is all my gold, resources, and a few cities. What do they look at when demanding to end the war? It's annoying when they know they should be begging me for mercy.
