I'm intending on writing a small application to help me learn more about C#. I have most of the code I want to use in my mind as well as an engine to build the app with and to actually get working with this application I need some art assets. It would be mighty useful if I could just rip them...

After winning my first G&K King difficulty match as the Byzantine by a hair. (I basically had to reload a save.. maybe 20 times. Had to do a surgical military strike on one of the runaways that had an entire island fitting 8 cities on a pangaea map. (Just my luck. ._.)) I figured I'd try my...

I kind of noticed that every time a tech gets stolen from me, it's stolen from my capital. Even when there are spies located in my capital. Does the AI even bother going for other cities? If not, there isn't really a point in building anti-spy buildings outside of your capital huh? (Saw a...

I actually don't see a very good use for them. Bombers can achieve similar effects and are re-usable and nukes do far more damage.

This sounds really interesting, how do you think this will work in finer detail? It would be really nice if you could have one city huge in production but lacking food, basically just sacrificing one city and send all it's excess food to that production city and make it even stronger. I do...

So having an inquisitor in or next a city prevents great prophets and missionaries from spreading their religion there. Does it also prevent the normal pressure that enemy religions exert from their cities?

When I build a caravel I usually do so for exploration. Once build in the city I hit auto-explore and go about my business. I noticed however that the ships will just stay inside the city while getting an empty movement every time as if they did move. Only observed this with caravels, didn't...

So yesterday I decided to finally up my game and play on King difficulty. Now I know that the gap between Prince and King was pretty big in vanilla, I experienced it myself and ended up winning on King. I dropped the game for a while and picked it back up with the expansion, which of course...

Let's say there are 8 civilizations, I'm the Netherlands and I have a DoF with Germany and France. Spain is also in the game and has declared war on Sweden. Germany asks me to declare war on Sweden with him, if I agree: (Ignore their personalities.) 1) Do I get a negative declare war...

I always thought that ships were kind of meh, but man was I wrong. I was playing a game as the Iroquois and Korea was kind of running away with the game, but then I noticed that all but his capitol city were bordering the ocean. I thought: I might as well try my luck and build some ships. I...

So my friend and I started a little game. He hosted the game because his computer is about 10x stronger than mine (so I hope that means his computer does all the thinking) but because this was more or less his first game I said he should play on Settler. He's on Settler, I'm on Prince but...

So here is my take on a religious victory, inspired by the (rumored) title of the next expansion called One World. A religious victory would be something akin to a smaller domination victory with a time limit on it. One world, unite everybody under one god instead of one king. The Goal...

So I was playing a nice match on Prince today. I was Ethiopia, continents, shared a continent with India, the Iroquois and the Dutch. Now India was nice as always, even though I claimed land right next to him at the beginning of the game he turned out to be a nice ally, have DoF and...

So I usually play with one or two friends in a LAN match with the remainder of the 8 civilizations being AI. I don't particularly mind but for some reason there are no leader screens for the bots? For example, if I click on Gandhi or Alexander I just keep seeing the terrain along with the...

Let me elaborate my question a bit more, in fact I might as well split it in minor questions because I would really like to know some details and most pages I managed to google only turned up with shallow explanations. :c ____________________________________________________________ 1) Do...

I'm not the best player but I've put about 175 hours into the game. Around 165 hours in Civilizations V and 10 hours (basically 2 games) in Civilizations V Gods and Kings. I played the first match in the summer and recently picked the game up again and decided to play on Warlord to reacquaint...

So there always is a time where you get a new technology making your old army now inferior. You will want to upgrade your military but the costs are really high. How about making them re-equip themselves? Suggestion I: Units can be upgraded in cities. Instead of spending 1 turn and a lot...

In one of my previous games I was playing as Askia. I was located in the upper right corner with city states surrounding me. China east of me beyond the city states and Spain south of me and the city states. (South-west was sea.) Now below Spain we had Japan with west of him Darius and...

I usually build some late cities yet their production is really slow even with me buying the production buildings. Sometimes I just want that happiness building that still takes 10 turns to be build in just a few turns less. Maybe I'm racing for a wonder and 1 or 2 turns could make all the...

I have this issue where the game randomly decided to not load any skins, thus leaving me with black models in the trade menus. (It doesn't affect anything else.) Restarting the game nor reloading a save file seems to fix this problem. Does anyone know what this is and how to solve it?
