    Civ 4 for a Civ 5 player?

    So, since this post, I have won one game as Lincoln on Noble (felt bad having to go down so many levels after playing civ 5 on emperor :3). Speaking of Civ 5, its weird, I also won my first game as America on there, too. Since then, I have literally never lost a game as America. Must be the...

    Civ 4 for a Civ 5 player?

    Thanks, but I have indeed already looked at that forum, I'm not that dull when it comes to civfanatics. However, at least from my first skim, I didn't find much useful (have been using a bit of the war academy as well as some youtubers). Also confused why there only a couple pages of strategy...

    Installing Civ 4 on Windows Vista / 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10 / 11 (32-/64-bit)

    Wow, lol, you are awesome. Never expected anyone to find and answer both of my questions, lol, guess they are connected :crazyeye:. Anyway, thanks, Check out the other thread, that is where I responded to you with a further question.

    Patch 3.19 won't install

    And now for the inevitable question: Would you happen to know how to get it from steam? I have it set to automatically update, and I have checked the update list (which is useless, only shows me news). Since it is automatic, perhaps it is already on. I WAS able to install BAT successfully...

    Installing Civ 4 on Windows Vista / 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10 / 11 (32-/64-bit)

    So, is there a way for the patches to work with Civ 4 BTS on Steam/Non-disk? I believe that is why whenever I try to download the 3.19 patch etc. it can not find the location. Would greatly appreciate help. I would normally assume that the game has come with 3.19 on steam, however, when I try...

    Patch 3.19 won't install

    I've tried nearly everything on this thread. I've reinstalled, run as administrator, used all the BTS patches (all of them saying that BTS doesn't exist on my computer and require a previous version). I would like to download the patch to successfully download mods such as BUG but I can't...

    Civ 4 for a Civ 5 player?

    Where and what exactly are the S&T forums? Also, just to clarify, y'all don't need to tell me whether or not I will enjoy Civ 4 or not because of micromanaging etc. I already know I do. Hell, with only a few games in I love it, and I suck too (which is expected). Thanks again for the...

    Civ 4 for a Civ 5 player?

    Thanks for the responses, everyone! Greatly appreciate the community here. Is there anything else crucial more experienced Civ 4 players have to say? I get all the other things you guys have said, but I feel there are a few more things missing. Particularly I would like to know more about...

    Civ 4 for a Civ 5 player?

    I have played Civ 5 for around 650 hours now. I routinely play on King, but honestly, I could probably win an emperor game if I tried, but I still just don't feel confident enough. I consider myself fairly decent, having won many many games over the year/years. Now, partly after having...

    Super Power Modpack - Total Conversion

    This might have been asked already, but will this work on TSL Earth maps such as YNAEMP? It seems that you are running one in the mod in some of the images you have displayed. I think it would make this mod much more interesting if it was. If not, what would you recommend as the most ideal...

    Real Life Civ Victory?

    Lets imagine that our existence is actually a heated and extensive Civ 5 or 4 game (I say both 5 and 4 because I would also like to consider victories such as conquest). So far, in your opinion, has anyone won yet and if so what type of victory? Or if no one has, in your opinion, who will...

    Which Civ5 civilisation had the biggest impact on history?

    While I wouldn't exactly put them as the "most influential" or impacting, I don't think a lot of you realize the impact France has had on the world. Before France become relatively rotten before the rise of Napoleon, France was a decent medieval power. Decent enough to beat the British...

    Romans VS Mongols in real life

    I think you all are forgetting to consider the fact that Rome wouldn't be the same as when they fell if they continued to advance into the Mongol's age (assuming that the argument is to be determined as logically as possible, bringing the Romans realistically into the later timeline of the...

    Whats the closest you've ever started a game near a natural wonder?

    Actually, in this mod in particular, Portugal gets the Rock of Gibraltor. I am not sure why the creator chose them over Spain, but yeah.

    1001 Bad (or good) Jokes About CIV

    I always win with a scientific victory??

    I would say culture victory is significantly harder than the alternatives on BNW. If you plan on winning this way efficiently, there is a lot you must manage and keep track of regardless of your situation. Throughout the entire game you must focus on matters such as tourism and great works. I...

    Whats the closest you've ever started a game near a natural wonder?

    On the legendary Earth map mod, Japan is probably one of the best civs to start as because you spawn right next to Mt. Fuji. Great for early game, it pretty much ensures a religion, decent culture, and income. Not to mention there are many atolls nearby, which work with the culture buff of...

    New City Science Penalty vs. Science Buildings?

    I have recently been wondering whether going wide is even an option anymore or not in BNW and thought it would help to know about the math of science buildings and whether or not they make up for the 5% new city research cost penalty. Any...
