You might find answers in the steam civ 5 forum, it is active and a quick search shows other folk interested in the same achievement. One guy commented the 100th general had to be won in battle.. I have no idea about such things but you might try there...

I have been following this game and am thinking to play my first ever non-domination game in civ 5. Not in context of GOTM, rather I would use knowledge of this scenario and the strategies in order to learn the game mechanics. It gives me a yard stick to work to, something I wouldn't get just...

Thanks, now I have it. I knew about DOW on AI civ before anyone else knew, but I also thought this applied to CS. If the CS remember anyway, there is no need to DOW on first contact, as you say, wait until the opportunity arises for the first time, but don´t make peace after the first worker...

I believe if you DOW on first contact the other CS and AI dont know and don't give penalties. I can't confirm this, just something I picked up on the way. As you say it reduces the quest options, and it will be your closest neighbour. I hesitate to DOW first contact on culture CS as they are...

It's even better if they are the first AI you meet! DOW immediately. I usually train my soldiers against them too. Chances are you will be allied with them anyway later in the game :lol:

I have some experience with this now. In my last game (TSG 238) I stole from 3 different CS during the game, as I didn't care about the warmonger penalties. My resting point with CS went to -20 and I went from -1 per turn to -1.5 per turn to -2 per turn. Also any new CS you meet will not give...

Second game, domination victory turn 83. I played with zero infrastructure, the first building I produced was a circus on T83, just finished it before I took Carthage to win the game, and only built this as it was too far to the war front to build any more troops that could get there in time...

I just noticed, maybe should be in the funny screen shots. In the map, above, Inside Atilla's Court sits a general. His image also makes up the city boundary. He is is showing his gods in the skies the path to victory, The Gold mine is a crest on his helmet, the citadel the badge of his unit...

I am playing this game again, properly. I am almost 50 turns in, no unhappiness. Took Kyoto, captured a worker. Around T20? Took Genghis T45. Still in positive happiness. I opened warrior x2 and scout again, but didnt copy the first game exactly. This time the ruins gave me pop x 2, culture x...

Domination Victory T 96 Like the kid in the candy store… I knew I shouldn’t have had that third city.. but I hoped to remedy the situation faster than I did, and I was kinda curious how it would play out. Having 2 rams and a scout so early was quite something, city captures were ludicrously...

Last post in here from me. I thought it would be worth posting an update. I have had negative happiness the whole game. My scout just got promoted on T53 and can see a natural wonder, and the +2 happiness has put me at zero happiness hehe. No growth in the captured cities, but I will at some...

I decided to speed play this, pretty reckless perhaps.. T15 I had a warrior and a scout and a ram all next to ruins.. I built a worker! first time ever, have to maximize those pastures and the timing was perfect as I could build horse archers straight after the worker. Decided to pop the...

Oops! 2 ruins in 6 turns... culture, opened Tradition with that starting location, will go through Honor and hope to steal workers for pasture building. second ruin, ram.. hehe. Going full Attila on this one, spamming horse archers. Skipped my usual scout x2 opener for warrior x2, for the...

not had a chance to test Archers yet, next game maybe .. I will post the results either way sometime in the future, don't hold your breath :lol: i don't play so frequently these days and games take me a while to play over many days. Not having the system crash is a big step, as it is a much...

Excellent, thanks, I haven't had a crash since I switched this off. I am also capturing workers with units above Archer level, will be curious to see what happens in the future.

Domination victory turn 154. I got so much wrong, but my game is picking up, the weak part is still civ 5 mechanics and tricks.. in this game I couldn’t work out why my unit had a mountain altitude training promotion.. it was only half way through the game that I learned about the properties...

I just tried to capture a worker with a comp bow and there was no problem, worked ok.

Thank you for looking at this. I have no other mods. It happened before and annoyed me so much I uninstalled the EUI, then no issues. But the EUI is worth having so I reloaded and encountered the same issue. I reloaded the turn and saved it, and tried many ways, each time the archer shot at the...

I tried all the normal ways before trying to hold the M key down. If you press the M key it shows you the route you wish to go and how many turns it will take to get there, but hover over a worker and the range attack menu pops up. I have tried everything. I dont have any issues with the EUI...

I took a peek at this last week, decided to speed play 100 turns. I opened tradition then went through the Honor tree. I made a mistake by settling on the copper, nice easy happiness bonus without needing a worker and good income.. but I hadnt factored in the tundra to the later game and the...
