    [BTS] CIv4 BTS on Win11 ?

    I'm upgrading to a windows 11 system, and have totally skipped windows 10. Does Civ4 BTS run on Win11?

    [BTS] What is the best mod for those seeking "Civ IV, except better"?

    I use BUFFY. It includes BUG or at least some version of it; UI is mucho improved over vanilla BtS. It is used for BtS Game of the Month play. I'll check out K-Mod; sounds like a winner!

    [BTS] BOTM 175 Suryavarman Final Spoiler, game submitted

    Eating humble pie and posting a defeat. I was aiming for Cultural, and was mindful to keep my military up and schmooze a couple of allies. I was easily first to Gunpowder but took my eyes off the ball at Curaissier time and let my foes tech them first. I couldn't withstand the Tripartite...

    [BTS] News: BOTM 171 Results and Congratulations

    Congrats to all! Those Dom/Conq victories so early on such a big map are impressive. I'm a painfully slow player. I just wrapped up this game! Got a UN victory in 1932, abandoning a Dom effort when it became clear I didn't expand nearly enough in BC. Many thanks to those who provide these...

    Complete Espionage Mission Cost Guide

    Note the effect this has if you are playing Permanent Alliances. If you are running a potent Espionage Economy and take on a permanent ally (PA) who has made little commitment to Espionage, you've basically doubled all mission costs and gimped your EE badly. This seems unbalanced. If you take...

    [BTS] News: BOTM 155 starts June 8

    My first GOTM! Looking forward to it. I opted for Challenger. SIP for my opening, and Hunting to use the deer and to quickly scout this desertification disaster... though i'm no fan of Hunting and scouts, esp. with no huts. With Chuck as leader I'm not going to compete for early religions...

    HOW TO: Add a Civ/Unit/Building in BTS (Modular XML Modding)

    I've got a modular mod working that adds a new civilization to BtS. But I don't see how to add a new leader to an existing, standard BtS civilization. I can define the new Leader in [MyMod]_CIV4LeaderHeadnfos.xml. But I don't see how to associate the leader to an existing civ. Doing a...

    The Diplomatic Victory - observations, notes and tips

    I just failed in an Emperor BtS Diplom win. I could never establish Defensive Pacts with my allies though they were +15 or better. I had left Ragnar’s one city as a Vassal. I wonder if the hidden Vassal attitude adjustment caused this? BTW my failure wasn’t caused by no DPs. Victory required...

    Fixes needed

    Thanks. Build queues for me are a big deal because of big civs, not so much short games vs. long. Same with trade route mgmt. I *like* a healthy amount of micromanagement, but I don't like not being able to execute a build strategy without memorizing a bunch of details. Unfortunately I agree...

    Fixes needed

    I've stepped away from Civ6 until some of these issues are fixed. I skimmed the Fall and Winter patch notes. It seems like there are still no build queues. Is that right? How's trade route management? I get the feeling that I'll be waiting til tne next patch before I'm excited about returning :)

    No resources as Suzerain?

    Resources are indeed improved. I agree that the Resource UI is mailed in. Another potential problem is that I have traded for some luxury resources, but they do not seem to be affecting Amenities. Nor do they show in the Resources display either mid-turn or post-turn.Is there any way to tell...

    No resources as Suzerain?

    I'm Suzerain of two city-states. But I don't have access to any of their resources, luxury or otherwise. Is there something I'm missing?

    [Vanilla] Amenity Guide

    I have only two cities. I have set up a camp on Ivory. I see its amenity in my capital (along with one other), but not my second city. Is this a bug, or do the cities need to be connected somehow?
