    Warmonger penalty for taking city-states

    You - :mischief: Me - :lol: I can't stop laughing. Too funny and so innocently asked. Oh and I totally get your reason for needing that real estate, I have done the same thing from time to time as well against CS's and other Civs. The game is all about the real estate anyway.

    Strange bug in LAN games after last patch

    Multiplayer is the biggest disappointment for me. I can't begin to imagine why they tried to make a turn based game into a real time game. It just doesn't work and is really a drain on the player. The only version of MP I enjoy as much as single player is Hot Seat...sadly that is not an...

    "I see you have a lot of units near my borders..."

    I can believe people are actually arguing the OP. The border system is broken no matter how you look at it and here is why... 1. Players can't warn off potential attackers, even if they are just flexing their muscle to send message. 2. If want to line my entire border with my fiercest and...

    Nukes defense - just don't do it?

    To the OP...each Civ is NOT required to buid the Manhattan Project before any other civ can build nukes. Only you are required to do so if you want to build nukes.

    Nukes defense - just don't do it?

    I just launched 3 ICBM's and 5 Atomic Bombs on Shoshone...he has (had) superior weaponry to me and a lot more of it. I had Gatling Guns and he had Rocket Launchers...I know he has at least two Atom Bombs floating oround on two cifferent carriers, I was trailing them with a destroyer then somehow...

    24/7 access to Diplomacy before you...

    Hi, I often find myself in a bind when another Civ is asking me to DOW another Civ, or a CS is asking me to bully another CS. The problem is I have no idea what the diplomatic situation is for the Civs involved much the more important Globall Diplomacy status. Seems to me if one can be asked...

    Are there any Diplomacy Guides?

    I do not understand why after so many years Sid has not simply added a hate meter for each CS an Civ. Then you can visually see how a particular Civ feels about your actions, maybe one Civ might be more sensitive than another...I don't personally believe the diplomatic system is that advanced...

    Zoom out...City Titles Overwhelm!

    No reason to be a smart alleck. I know full well that was a Civ IV feature, that was my point. Perhaps you have something positive to contribute, like how to stop the city name tags from taking up my entire screen when I want to zoom out and admire the landscape? Thanks - Frdm

    Zoom out...City Titles Overwhelm!

    Ok...this is incredibly annoying. I often zoom out to marvel at my growing empire or to simply get a clear picture of the world which I intend to conquer only to have space view of the world inundated with huge city titles that are totaly distracting and ridiculous from that perspective...

    Tile resources...bomb bomb bomb away!

    Somethign for another thread I guess, but the barbs 8 out of 10 games will make me the target of their rage and smile and hold hands with othe civs as they pass through the woods in broad daylight. Very frustrating, esp. when you are at war. Frdm

    0% chance of coupe???

    But those are all pretty good reasons to attempt a coupe. :) To me a coupe should be a last ditch effort anyway to turn the tides and some crucial point, and now that I understand from other posters how the coupe works, ti makes perfect sense and fits well into the game imho. Thatnks to all...

    0% chance of coupe???

    This make sense, wish it was spelled out better, I hate "guessing" at the rules of game play. Such a waste of time. I will give it a whirl and raise my influence level with cs and watch the results start pouring in. Thanks! Frdm

    0% chance of coupe???

    Hello, I have been trying to make use of my spies for jobs other than security detail. The problem is I don't know how to raise the % chance of success for a coupe. I have tried leaving my spy in the city for many many turns to no avail. So, my guess is another civ placed a spy there before...

    Tile resources...bomb bomb bomb away!

    I realise the title of this thread may have lead some to think I was only referring to Bombers...I was not. The ability to destroy tile improvements in general from the air or sea or from ranged units...really by any means should simply exist. I understand the concerns about bombers, the...

    SINGLE Most Frustrating Thing in Civ5?

    Tile resources...bomb bomb bomb away!

    One of the 3 :) As far as the ability to use air or naval or artillery power to bomb tiles being overpowered I have to disagree too. 1. Bombers are susceptible to Fighters which have like 9 tiles range for interception. Great reason to need to build bombers AND fighters. 2. This ability would...
