    Inquisition - How to start

    I cannot recruit inquisitors. I have a state religion - Yoruba. I have it present in all my cities. I have built all the religious "buildings". I had an inquisition about 1000 years ago and now I want another, but I cannot recruit inquisitors anywhere. I have the Inquisitorial civic activated...

    Turn processing time

    I am curious about turn processing time. My game is on a huge map with about 12 civs. I am in the late classical age. I can read four or five pages in a book while the turn processes. During most of that time my screen never moves and shows a message that other civs are moving. I will see a...

    Holy City Creation Failure?

    I founded Christianity in my capitol in 25292 BC with a Great Prophet. In about 5000 BC I got another Great Prophet and tried to use it to build the Cathedral of ??? with it there and noticed that I do not have a holy city for Christianity in Rome or anywhere else. Would someone please explain...

    Unable to Assault City

    As requested in another thread, I am posting a problem here. I have moved an army up to the German held city of St. Paul and, after bombarding the city defences down to zero, I want to assault it with grenadiers, musketmen, etc. I cannot. After selecting the assault troop, I get a red ring over...

    Flammability

    I find the whole "Flammability" thing irritating and far too powerful in impacting the game. Where is the switch to turn it off? I cannot seem to find it in any of the setup menus.

    C2C Alt-Tech Implementation (Steampunk)

    I have often researched some of the "alternate" techs such as Steampunk, but I have never been given the option of building units or buildings related to that tech. Why? What more do you have to do to implement the alternate tech's neat features?

    How do you buy a building?

    I have 10,000 gold. I want to buy a granary that has 3 turns left to construction finish. I go to the city screen and push the "Buy" button. Nothing happens. Same thing for markets and other buildings. No warnings from the mouse-over or other information. Nothing in the manual. What am I...

    How to Acivate custom music?

    How do you get the game to play custom music? The manual is bloody useless. The operational part of the two sentences devoted to the audio portion of the options screen says "Once again, (roll over) the options to learn more about them." Not only is that totally useless, it is wrong. Nothing...

    City will not grow-food converted

    I desperately need help. My starting city will not grow. I have already researched Forge and I am stuck on a pop of 1. The city screen says that all of my 4 excess food is being converted into 3 extra production points. I can find no explanation for this on any screen or shortcut list or...

    Rally Pt & Abandon city

    I am slowly getting fed up with Civ IV, which appears to be a nice, but very incremental update to Civ III. The interface is just not very informative at a glance, requiring the user to click or move the mouse to get data that should be present without searching. Any inprovements in play have...

    Scenario Briefings: Where?

    There is precious little information in the game about the scenarios included with it (ex. the ancient Rome scenario where you can play Rome, Greece or Parthia). Is there any place in the forums where more information about the individual scenario parameters (i.e. tech limits, time limits...

    Civ IV Questions and Critiques

    OK, I have been playing this game since Christmas and a few things have really begun to nag at me, even after updating to the 1.52 patch. They contribute to the game being not as engaging as its predecessors. 1. The notification and information system is absolutely AWEFUL! Critical data...

    Captured Wonders

    When a Wonder is captured, does it begin to contribute culture points to the new owner? I know that I have read the answer to this somewhere, but my memory has failed me.
