This is something I grapple with quite a bit in the mid game. I think I underuse this technique, and fail to understand when it is useful. To move the capital is very cheap hammer wise relatively.
What reasons do you find, and at what levels does this make sense? Also would you move a...
I've moved these posts out of the Sign-up thread for those of you who want to have a public discussion about the starting position. - AlanH
ummm, that test game is in normal. Now I notice the game is set to epic.
oh well. I'll try another one
Spoiler content deleted. There's no need to use a specific current game setup to make this point
It's time to face the fact that normal speed is worthless for a standard map. Small and below is ok if you just want to test out a civ or a starting strategy.
So I get to the hospital with my 9mos preggo wife. I brought my laptop so I could crop and retouch any photos right away. I also had the CIV disk in the drive from a GOTM session.
Well about 12 hours into the labor and the Mrs. had had enuf and asked for the good stuff. In the 3 hour nap...
My cpu runs 1.61 MUCH slower than 1.51. I've dropped to absolute minimum graphics (used to be at medium with no problems) and it's still at a crawl. I don't know what happened but it's killt my game.

Shots of the GOTM3 start to show soon
Well the first time out we got in a little over our heads. Didn't realize Always War was basically set up to be a 6 on 1 tag team. That and with tech trading enabled we had no prayer.
Point to the shirt
That being said I think we are wanting to give it another go with some modifications.
I...
Sorry for the noobish question. The search function on this site is two steps down from pathetic. :rolleyes:
I'm looking for hard and fast differences between the variants most specifically Agressive AI and Always War, but I'd like to get a handle on raging barbs also. Like what is the...
This will be the site for the proposed succession game for footballguys.com forum users. For those of you not familiar footballguys is a fantasy football forum and one of the largest 100 messageboards on these the innernets. Registration is available to our little mini civ 4 community.
