Pretty much the title - my computer is a little too slow to run leader animations (and I don't really like how long they take anyway), but I'm always disappointed that I can't hear their voices. Is there a reason these have to go together?

Wow! That's really interesting, and definitely not what I would have thought that line meant (obviously, based on my egregiously wrong interpretation). So: good story, lousy pull quote.

I always find the Ruhr Valley quote really puzzling: I guess that means the valley was *so* productive there was nothing left for anyone else to do? But it really makes it sound like the creation of the wonder was bad for Germany...

In another universe somewhere, the Aztec AI is posting in a forum thread titled, "Human player still declares war and then deletes all his units."

Well, I basically lost a game last night on Emperor as Poundmaker. I haven't played Civ6 in almost a year and I'm not great at Civ anyway, but I was playing around with the new mechanics and neglecting my military. Teddy declared a formal war on me in Classical era, had a good mix of archers and...

Got it. I'm just pointing out that the CBP wiki (which may be totally out of date!) specifically says that you can place it in enemy territory, so I guess that is an error. That's all - thanks!

I figured that was the reason, but the CBP wiki says: so I thought maybe it was something else, haha. You could do it in adjacent enemy land in vanilla, right?

Is there something funky going on with citadel placement, or is there some rule I don’t understand? Twice in my current game as Francs I’ve tried to place a citadel in the borders of a nation I’m at war with (Indonesia and the Celts), adjacent to my own border, and the “build citadel” button has...

Thanks! No embassy was probably the reason I couldn’t sell to Washington or Pacal - Pacal and I had literally just finished a war and I think Washington didn’t have an embassy with me either. I guess Pedro being willing to buy Tikal is the exception, not his being unwilling to buy Uxmal.

Okay, another question. I’m playing a new game as Shaka. I just had a war with Pacal, took Tikal and Chichen Itza and he gave me Uxmal in a peace deal. I didn’t really want Uxmal, but figured maybe I could sell it to Brazil or America, both of whom had other cities in the area. When I tried...

Okay, I went back into the game to check - I have the #2 military in the world, but Arabia is #1, so I guess from their perspective I am weaker! Not by much, though - I am around 244k, he is around 249k.

Got it. How does the "Liberate" option work in the "Negotiate Peace" screen? Suppose I made a deal with Siam to liberate France - would I then still be at war with France, or would both wars end but France is free?

Sorry, I should have clarified - I don't think we actually had DOF when he declared on me (although at the time it happened I thought we did - it must have just run out, I reloaded an autosave to check). We had DOF almost consistently since the ancient era until that point. I don't think I had a...

What triggers the AI to war? I am playing my first game with VP as Rome, and I was close allies with Arabia for the whole game. Then in the Renaissance, he bullied a city state I was allied with and I got the "sorry about your city state" message. I said "You'll pay for this in time" so as not...

Yeah, this is probably true. I get bummed when half my city state envoy quests are "recruit a great artist/writer/musician" but unless I'm really pushing theater squares I'm never going to catch the AI on that anyway. I have a hard enough time getting the Education eureka, lol.

I realize this is highly situational based on your land/goals/etc, but can we talk a bit about about the proportional breakdown of different types of districts across your empire? I find that I often get to the middle of the game and realize I have completely neglected, say, theater squares or...

Nope - I captured it super early and converted it a while later. Egypt founded her own religion, but in the interim (between capture and converting it to Shinto) all of her cities were converted to Islam (Arabia's religion).

It gets 12 faith in every available slot in Memphis. I'm pretty sure Cleo built the temple (not 100%, but pretty sure). I definitely built the wonder.

I also posted this on the Civ sub reddit, so apologies if you're seeing it twice. I'm playing with Jadwiga and founded a religion with the Reliquaries belief. In most of my cities, relics give 18 faith per turn. However, I just tried to put a relic in a city I captured from Egypt (Memphis), and...

I was using CQUI for a while and I'm pretty sure this is not in reports (although you're right about the district icons). I've been trying out the NQ EUI so I turned CQUI off for a while - and I might stick with it, because it adds a lot of things I missed from Civ V like global diplomacy and...
