I was curious if anybody else has used this exploit? I wanted to try to win at Deity level, so I played with Rome against Kongo on a duel sized continents map. I went for a religion victory since Kongo can't found their own religion, and the win was very easy (I won the game by about 500 BC)...

First post-patch game...played so far until 1000AD. ICS and trading post spamming are alive and well. Maritimes still give plenty enough food that you can ignore farms and spam trading posts everywhere. There's still enough food and happiness resources to support a lot of cities. My pace...

I hadn't seen this anywhere so I thought I would post to let people know who were not aware of this. In my last game, I had a city in a northern area surrounded by tundra and ice. There was a river running past, and I found my workers were able to improve the ice tiles along the river with...
