Someone metioned on Steam that it's possible to disable the 'new' launcher. I asked how but got no reply. Also couldn't find a thread on it (there nor here). So, does anybody know how to disable it?

Haven't seen an RD thread in a bit, so I reckon this should be good. So, What is trolling? Well, you might say: it's a very grey area. Is it? Let's see some defintions. - the act of leaving an insulting message on the internet in order to annoy someone - post unkind or offensive messages on...

Provocative title, I know. But this will be a serious discussion. Civ 5 introduced a key change, that was perpetuated in Civ 6. That change was the switch from an isometric map to a hexagrammatic map.Now why is that important? Simply put, the new map design takes away moves per tile. Instead...

Now why on Earth would he do that... in preparation for the referendum the Erdogan government planned to send representatives to speak to Turks living abroad, to expand of the wisdom of a Yes choice. Mr Erdogan responded swiftly: Greetings from the Netherlands...

Previous attempted lawsuits by victims have so far been dismissed, so this is an important step - especially considering the lack of responsibility for the whole torture program displayed by Congress. Many of the victims were held prisoner for years without ever being charged with anything, and...

There seems to be a recurrent issue with connections timing out when trying to reply on a thread or otherwise. Instead a page appears with "warning [fsock... unable to connect to... mail php" (something of that nature). Connection will ultimately occur, but it's a bit of an annoyance. In...

Noticed something new today. Tried this three times, with less mods active and after clearing cache: Game starts, with the selected civ. Opening screen shows, with active unit (Settler). Cursor is there, but the screen looks frozen and my cursor doesn't do anything. Exiting the game is...

Somewhat surprised to find no discussion of this: From here: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-33919484 (with nice video and actual report of the occasion) A bit overdue one might say, but still a historic occasion.

Interesting article on a neglected topic: In full: http://www.scribd.com/doc/274054761/Servi-Senes-the-Role-of-Old-Slaves-at-Rome (sing in required to read or download) Altough sources are scarce on the topic, it suggests two things: old slaves were not expected to work (falling in the same...

After deleting cache (which I do regularly) and setting up a game, the start select screen shows 1 civ space and the announcement UNKNOWN NUMBER OF CIVS SELECT MAP SIZE while YnAEMP is loaded (but apparently it isn't). Tried it twice, restarted CiV, screen still showing like this. (I tried...

I've recently found that wile in midgame (Industrial Era) a bug appears preventing savegames. That is, the game appears to be saving, but this takes much shorter than it should and when trying to load such a savegame, the game crashes on a 'runtime error'. Originally I thought this might be...
