I was just playing a TSL huge earth map as Brazil. I had so much tourism early because I made basically the entire amazon a national park that I won in the renaissance or early industrial, when I had only met like 7 out of 12 civs. In like 3k hours of this game I don't think I"ve ever seen that!

Note the flooded wheat tile (5 Food 1 Prod) is along the same river as the great bath. It's flooded, hence the pillaged status. Shouldn't it be protected from flooding? Also shouldn't it have faith? The two tiles above it are also pillaged from the flood, but got faith.

In ternms of unique buildings, besides America's film studio, district buildings only get uniques at T1/T2, which is the only post-industrial unique, so I'd lean towards early buildings. For districts, the it seems most of the "normal" ones have a replacement already, although I could see maybe...

I wanna steal that oil. You can make citadels one tile outside your borders, but it won't let me put one there. I was able to put one on the farm on the hills next to the mountain, so I could still get the oil, but that isn't the best spot for it. No mods.

Not necessarily "whose uniques are best", but "whose uniques complement each other". Byzantium is probably the easy answer for best synergy; their religious and war games are so tightly intertwined by their uniques that it makes for a very interesting playstyle. IMO an example of bad synergy are...

i.e. I form Judaism. I don't take any religious building tenents, but I do take Sacred Sites ("All buildings purchased with faith give 2 tourism"). Then I get converted by an enemy great prophet to Hinduism, which has Pagodas. I buy a pagoda, then inquisitor my city back to Judaism. Should I...

Attached save (no mods whatsover) and also two screenshots. (Note: ignore the stupid city placements, I started experimenting to replicate the bug) Explantation: I have the whole tradition policy complete, so I should be getting 15% food in my first 4 cities I assume that 15% empire...

i.e. they are 4 or 5 tiles away from a city so you can't work them, but are in your land

For example, in the mod's xml for the unique improvement, it has <Improvement_TechYieldChanges> <Row> <ImprovementType>IMPROVEMENT_APPALACHIAN_MOONSHINE</ImprovementType> <TechType>TECH_RAILROAD</TechType>...

The Maya's entire schtick is having a large number of cities blobbed really close together and not spreading out too (geographically) far. But being in the Yucutan, you basically only have one direction where to settle your core cities (towards mainland Mexico), and that direction will probably...

I was about to win a science victory when I lost a surprise diplomatic victory; I had the most votes, but a couple of AIs all got together and voted for #2 (England), which put them over the edge. This was a pretty big surprise to me, becuase everybody in the game hated England, and a few of the...

England just told me that Greece is marching toward my city... of Eaoteroa (Polynesian). Except I'm not Polynesia, I'm the Mayan. I have never controlled that city. I wouldn't be surprised if Greece was going to invade me, though Is this a bug, or is the AI intentionally trying to be tricksy...

I've got about 2.5k hours in the unmodded civ V and have done a couple of games with vox populi just now... from my experience with the base game I think I have a good feel on how much the AI tends to attack, declare wars, be friendly, etc. But almost every vox populi game has just been an...

My missionaries, apostles, and inquisitors all seem to have an extra charge. I don't know why. I don't have mosques. I don't have the governor promotion that gives more charges.I don't have Hagia Sofia. I don't have a golden age. I probably did something, but I'm not sure what...

Something I always thought was missing from civ was the land effecting your military more than just conbat bonuses. You shouldn't invade Russia in the winter, but ingame, you can heal on a snow tile (or for that matter a desert tile) just as well as you could on a forest grassland tile full of...

I don't mean alt leaders for one civ (like Chandragupta/Ghandi) I mean single leaders who lead more than one (Eleanor, Kublai). I'd like to see a dual Macedon/Egyptian leader in Ptolomy Soter. He could be a bit more cultural than Alex, and a bit more warlike than Cleopatra. Similarly, we could...

Can be anything... civ/wonder synergies, civ/certain religious belief, etc. The ones I'm listing are fairly obvious, but one I really like is Maori + Chichen Itza/the new Marsh wonder. Maori already get boosts to passable tiles, so boosting rainforest/marsh/floodplains even further is...

Seems like they just go on and do it anyway. Even if they promise not to. Even on the very next turn. Well, holy wars it is...

One thing I like to do is cook a dish from the culture I'm playing as, or something more modern from that region in the case of very old cultures. Gaming and cooking are probably my only real hobbies so this goes together well! (plus long games give me time to go stir a pot or something while...

In my current game I want to joint the voidsingers. I've discovered (I believe) all the natural wonders and met every civ (over half of whom are voidsingers) but I still haven't been sent an invitation. Is this just.... really bad luck? Can you get locked out?
