    Maze Menace Missions

    Having a torpedo handy to blow a hole in the asteroids is a must. I've been in situations where the exit is completely surrounded by asteroids.

    Bug?

    Hi all, just tried my first colonization game, and noticed 2 problems. First, why is it that once I grow a settlement to 26 population, I cannot add further people to that settlement? Second, it says in the civilopedia that, after declaring independence, you only need to destroy all the...

    How about trying to win the game without ever attacking an AI player's territory?

    Your most effective designs

    IMHO, fighters 1, torpedoes 1, cannon 1, shields 3 and enough engines to achieve 4 speed are a must in the early game, and is how I invariably upgrade my only ship at the beggining of the game. Purchasing armour instead of shields in the early game seems to lead to horrifying repair bills...

    Best Wonders overall?

    IMHO, it really depends on your playstyle. Here are some of my favourites. 1. Cloaking + Convergent Light Once you get this combination, get lots of lasers, lots of stealth modules, and spend all your tech on Quantum Supression. Once you find that the enemy can't see you even if you hug...

    Civilization V: Who/What Am I?

    Er, just to be clear, is "Maya" a typo? Did you try to type "May a different...", or was it on purpose? BTW, it is only Chinese southerners that have rice as their staple. Northerners tend to prefer bread and noodles.

    Civilization V: Who/What Am I?

    Hi, all! I'm back! I think cpm4001 got it right, but I'll hazard a guess at Terracotta Army. Oops, didn't see Nick's most recent post.

    Civilization V: Who/What Am I?

    Sorry everyone, my internet connection was busted by ongoing construction, so I didn't have access to the internet for quite a while. The construction is still ongoing, with great risk of tearing out the internet infrastructure, so I don't expect to participate in this thread for quite some...

    Civilization V: Who/What Am I?

    Sigh. Lots of answers are incredibly close. Time to give out the answer. Clue 1: Sejong the Great, George Washington, Duncan, Columbus, Peter the Great (?) Clue 2: Gettysburg, Hangzhou, Smolensk, Lancaster, Aquitaine Clue 3: Victory, Pearls (?), Ambush, Ocean, Modern Era (?) Clue 3...

    Civilization V: Who/What Am I?

    Sigh. This is proving to be much harder than I thought. There are obviously not many military enthusiasts among us. Very well, I'll just have to make an extension to my final clue. Clue 3: Victory, Pearls (?), Ambush, Ocean, Modern Era (?) Clue 3 Extension: Arleigh Burke, Yamato...

    Civilization V: Who/What Am I?

    'Fraid not. Would it help if I stated that Pyotr Velikiy means "Peter the Great", and that it is precisely because of this that a question mark has been added? Also, would it help if I said that clue 1 would be more consistent if I switched Duncan for Queen Elizabeth?
