I've no idea if anyone else is watching or interested but let's start a new thread anyway partly because something great (subjective, I'm not expecting Americans agreeing much) happened on the opening day. In an event (4x400m mixed relay) invented (purely) for tv audience in the US the team...

Sweden it is. Keep in mind that the map is - Continents Huge, 10/30, arid - 2 main civs removed & 6 CSs added to default so the 30 CSs isn't a typo. - blocking ice has been removed (at least I'm fairly sure I did rather than depending on it happening naturally with the cooked map)...

It's been a while since the last so here it goes - something to do between the games and if one isn't into ice hockey then for any given time. The map should be, once again, on the easier side but hopefully achi hunting or voluntary distractions will offer something to counter that. Please...

*** A minor detail added in achi #6. *** Also the maps have been slightly modified not be screwed by AI when going for Petra, sorry about the mess. Please see the CDG Series Discussion Thread to express yourself if you have remarks and ideas. Some maps in this series use mods. This map...

Oops, I got bored again and since I've had the map ready for ages I'll take the liberty of switching the order of Dido & Gandhi. Please see the CDG Series Discussion Thread to express yourself if you have remarks and ideas. Some maps in this series use mods. This map uses the DLC map...

CDG #38 – Genghis Khan with the clear target of Total Domination (more about that later) but even lesser genocidal tendencies will work. Please see the CDG Series Discussion Thread to express yourself if you have remarks and ideas. Some maps in this series use mods. This map uses the DLC...

CDG 31 Russia Please see the CDG Series Discussion Thread to express yourself if you have remarks and ideas. Some maps in the series use mods. This map uses the DLC map packs, so you will need “Explorers Map Pack”, “Scrambled Nations”, and “Scrambled Continents”, as well as the earlier (and...

The map is probably very/fairly easy so there're some bonus incentives in form of achievements like we used to have back in the days to gently guide players to a certain direction. Feel free to ignore these but the map is cooked to have fun with wide play - more under the map spoilers. The achis...

CDG 28 with Attila the Pacifist The map is std size Terra Incognita ie something similar to the build-in Terra maps BUT starting spots are all over the map and it's more unpredictable. Also note that sea level is set low so there will more land and the world is Arid so jungles are limited and...

Deity Challenge Lineup #43 Japan I took the liberty of posting the very last piece of the series just to complete it. I haven't played this more than 5 turns so there's no guarantee of quality for much of anything but I'd assume that this won't be easiest in the series. Before jumping in I...

The Deity Challenge Lineup - Game #10 - Polynesia Sorry for hijacking this (and for a bad map) again but Dingle hasn't been online since the 9th nor have I managed to reach him with pm or mail and with the current DB issue on CFC he is likely unable to login with his account so I'll piss off...

The Deity Challenge Lineup - Game #9 - Rome Starting position Welcome to The Deity Challenge Lineup. This is a biweekly event with games being posted every other Friday. All games in this series will be set to DEITY difficulty. User civilizations, maps, and opponents will change with...

Occasionally rolling nice starts just brings up a smile and one is ready to move on but if then happens something like this one begins to wonder what could be done so how about making every city on the map to follow one religion before any VC and without Piety. The map is std...

This should be simple enough question: with which hand do you use external mouse? With the better one ie the one you write or the one? As far as I've seen over the decades almost 100% tend to use the better hand as it seems instinctive I however am different - I use the other one and the...

Time for the next DC and this time it's India - probably much less played than an average Civ and since it's also the current choice in IC2 there might be some interesting comparisons to be made. Additional info within spoilers. - Population Growth. Unhappiness from number of Cities doubled...

These are coming a bit fast atm and it seems peeps are still playing the past ones but no worries - these are more than slightly different so the interest groups might also not be overlapping for 100% and hc gamers will probably welcome any odd game. St. Patrick's day approaching (I've been...

It's been almost two weeks since the last so here's a new one keeping in mind that some people wanted more basic stuff and there's an active thread about the Mayan GP priorities. Also this seems 'easy' enough a start to intrigue more players than the small, more hardcore deity bunch. Hopefully...

Most of us will prolly agree that diplomacy is limited at best and should be improved in several ways but lately denouncing has been bugging me frequently. Might have something to do with being denounded twice on T5 by one social misfit named Alex. Since AI is constantly bragging that they...

As most of us I've been quite happy about the viability of tradition in G&K and I've used it far more often than liberty. Lately, though, I've been wondering if there's any logic behind the decision of chosing between those or do I just follow a plan laid out before rolling a map. The only...

We're roughly a month into G&K and peeps are most likely familiar with all the news things so it might be the time to renew the Snarzberry's original challenge in G&K environment. Hopefully even the reigning champion JeanBaptiste can manage a pc in time to participate. In respect to the...
