Title says it all

Culture Victory Turn 237 Score 1140 The game was mostly peaceful. Until Dido attacked an ally pulling me into war. I settled in place. I went with Void singers with the goal of getting lots of relics. I built Stonehenge to found a religion and chose the bonus for relics.

I started this over in the Chop thread, but decided it really needs it's own thread. Everything above the Tundra stuff is a copy/paste from that thread. With the new Apocalypse Mode it's even better to save those chops until later, because now you can use Soothsayers to burn your forests and...

Didn't the devs say during the PvP livesteam that the release is at Midnight EST? Steam is showing it as Noon (12 hours later).

Zulu Emperor Domination Continents Barbs - off Huts - off Classical start (this gives the eurekas and inspirations you'd get from barbs)

Before launch I started the speculation thread for this. Now, it's time to see what the achievements actually are. Since they're all hidden, we'll have to discover them. So far I've gotten 2 of them. Drama Queen - Join or be the target of 3 emergencies. Subject Matter Expert - Have a governor...

Steams shows 38 new hidden achievement that probably go with R&F. Anyone care to guess what they might be? My guesses: 1-9 Win a regular game with each new leader. 10 Recruit a governor and/or place them in a city. 11 Recruit all the governors on the same game. 12 Fully promote a governor 13...

Check out this wonderful starting location. I know what I'd do if I had to play this start. How would you play it? http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1185236103 Here's the save file if anyone wants to try this one. The save does require all current DLCs and the patch that...

I've been trying to beat this scenario on deity, but have only been able to get 300-400 GPT and I need 900 GPT to win. Has anyone figured out how to pull this off? Does anyone know how to get more settlers, other than those from completing certain civics?

Today Steam downloaded another small patch for C:BE. Does anyone know what this 2nd patch changed? I can't find any patch notes on it anywhere.

I discovered a major bug/exploit with the Promised Land victory today when I saved the game to take a break after spawning the settler for the turn and phasal transporting it to the next location. When I relaunched the game I checked that I had already spawned one before ending the turn and a...

Since Venice can only puppet I'd like to see these changes made. Venetian Puppets only have a 10% penalty to science and culture instead of the normal 25% penalty. If 10% isn't enough, make it 15%. Allow buying tiles in puppets. At the very least, just this one would be very helpful.

While playing GotM 71 after my game was patched I hit the auto-annex bug. I believe the initial save was created before the patch was released. Since this game is with Venice, this bug effectively lets me bypass the no-annex part of the UA. Don't open the spoiler or the attached save game...

They released a hot-fix patch today. Here's the link. http://forums.2kgames.com/showthread.php?260106-Hot-Fix-is-on-the-way Here's the details.

The goal of this strategy is to get the Heathen Conversion reformation belief and use the barbs to help you dominate the planet as quickly as possible. Capital BO Scout, Monument, Scout, Shrine, Archer, Archer, Settler, Granary, Caravan. Then archer/settler until you can build siege towers...

This reformation belief with 2 faith bought buildings (possibly 3 with Byzantium) and hyper expansion currently results in a very early cultural victory. It's possible to win before hitting the Renaissance. I've seen wins around turn 130 on standard speed on an archipelago/large islands map with...

When on the culture screen and trying to match up art and artifacts, having both use the same icon means having to read the tooltip on a bunch of them to find the art works or artifacts you're looking for to get a theme bonus, especially since the new art or artifact you're looking for was...

Here's a Byzantine challenge for those of us that aren't up to Immortal or Deity. Can you forge a powerful empire by opening with Piety. The challenge is to complete the piety tree before opening any other tree and use this to forge a strong religion. Edit: This game was created with all the...

In two different games an embarked AI worker went around plundering my trade routes. I don't know if any other civilian units can plunder trade routes, nor if it's just the sea trade routes or both land and sea. I wasn't able to get any of my workers in place to attempt to plunder, so I don't...

Since Byzantium's UA requires founding a religion it becomes useless if you're not able to found a religion. Unfortunately, the default Byzantium civilization doesn't aid in founding a religion. Therefore I've come up with this simple mod to improve Byzantium's UA. This mod adds a free shrine...
