    I hate the early game, how to cope with it?

    I find usually you can wait until you have your 2nd or 3rd city + agoge to need to build more than an extra warrior or slinger on Immortal. I almost always start scout > slinger > settler, sometimes or scout > a few turns slinger > settler at pop 2 > finish slinger. Every once in a while I get...

    Religious Victory is too difficult and unrewarding

    I have limited experience with RV, but it seems like you get all your tools extremely early on. Other than the T2 government and a couple of nice to have wonders that come before it, theres really nothing new after apostles. Its like doing domination with only swordsmen.

    [GS] Tile management tips? Improvements/districts/building placement?

    You can ignore the great prophet. Faith does have its uses in a science game, but you don't need a religion to get faith. Prophets are only for founding religion. First thing I'd do is send that builder over to the sheep and put a pasture up, Jeonju needs the production badly. Specific...

    [GS] Tile management tips? Improvements/districts/building placement?

    Monuments are nice early because any source of culture from a city helps expand its borders, as well as getting you down the civic tree toward your first real government. I think Rome is the best starter civ because all cities start with monuments and its one less thing you have to worry about...

    [GS] Court of love

    Don't forget Taj Mahal too. Helps ensure you are always in a golden age.

    [GS] I'm not playing another Diplomatic Victory into some serious changes are made

    I thought of a cool possible way to earn diplo points that could be added: peacefully freeing a city state. Either by loyalty flip or convincing another civ to release it (that would need to be implemented)

    Why do alliances require constant renewal all the time?

    That you have to renew them isnt a big deal, its how tedious it is to do so.

    [GS] I'm not playing another Diplomatic Victory into some serious changes are made

    Norway probably has the biggest advantage because they can enter the ocean sooner. Meet other civs faster therefore more chances at the emergency RNG game.

    [GS] I'm not playing another Diplomatic Victory into some serious changes are made

    Ideally you get a few aid events. If you can get 3 plus statue of liberty you only have to go through with two votes. Maybe just put disasters at 4? And scout, scout, scout. Need to meet all AIs and get envoys to all city states so you can get in on the action.

    [GS] I'm not playing another Diplomatic Victory into some serious changes are made

    Its a VC the AI doesn't even compete in, they just block you at the very end. That's not a good kind of hard The concept of diplo favor itself is solid. Running alliances, suzerains...Being a suzerain for 100 turns and losing it one turn before WC is irrelevant, which is nice. The groundwork...

    Stop at 7 points. Don't research seasteads tech. They will still vote against you when you have 7 but not as badly. I agree its a lousy victory condition though and the worst thing about GS

    [GS] Your first impression score of this expansion

    7/10 Im scoring based on did it improve the prior experience, and bottom line its a more fun game than it was before. It makes Rise and Fall seem more complete. Governors more interesting, and civs that meaningfully use loyalty. There aren't any real big game changers here, but it didn't...

    Firestorm on Steam - Causa EULA

    Why would you hope such a thing? There is a huge problem today with people who get butthurt about something (usually without good cause) and then make it their mission to get their 'revenge' while screwing over everyone else. Like asshats who DDoS MMORPGs, which has a negative impact to...

    You can just block Rock Bands with your units.

    in 2 of my 3 games was under non stop assault by rock bands. One of which was a culture win and the other was a diplo win that was close to a culture win. Seems like AI isn't clueless with these.

    [GS] GS impressions/random observations thread.

    Incas can get some stupid large cities. Cusco was pop 42 at the end of the game (turn 290ish). Internal trade routes were getting 13-15 food. Also I actually like new science victory. I of course had 0 Aluminum but other AIs were happy to take my gold and favor for it. And its the most...

    Gathering Storm: Failure or Success?

    I wonder if they've improved things like CI and Petra so the AI wouldnt build them if it only has 1-2 tiles that benefit

    [GS] New patch: AI walled city attack experiment results

    A lot of this is due to Civ VI not needing many game changing improvements. Almost everything in the Civ V expansions was already in Civ VI, and much of it better than Civ V. It does have plenty of game enhancing improvements though. Small things like Grievances and strategic resource...

    So apparently, the AI has not been improved

    In my last game Mansa was sending up to date units at me quite often. He was also using a jet bomber to pillage the crap oy of my capitols districts. I thinking asking the AI to be a challenge militarily is a pretty big ask though as it cant brute force with 1UPT. I would like it to be better...

    [GS] Your first Gathering Storm game

    Second win Freleanor, Large map, Immortal, 1 less AI, continents Main play was to try out court of love. Ive never tried any loyalty flipping in the past. Paris had good food so kept spitting out settlers, even without Magnus. Set Pingala up instead to work towards the great people promo...
