Just finished posting this epic Egypt v. Persia game against nolegskitten -- one of the most back and forth and memorable games I can remember: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUhNKa2jBT2Gt3weMQZIMhk2KtIYb5NTL And just started posting this game vs. Frederik, with both of us using...

fluffybunny and I just completed an epic game where we each narrated our perspective and recorded our turns. Here's the full playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUhNKa2jBT2G1lQeK8f3t0-IpQr0MvFeG

Made what I thought was going to be a quick video about Unique Units that somehow clocked in at 50 minutes… >.> Hopefully folks will find it exhaustive but not exhausting ;) I tried to cover the very basics in the beginning (how the heck do you build UUs) and eventually work up to more advanced...

Lots of significant changes in this week's test patch: https://gist.github.com/MohawkGames/09b854c59e192f6f5df660d566c25e75 Made a video going over them:

Made a series of videos on what to think about when founding your capital: Assyria: Babylon: Carthage: Egypt: Greece: Hatti: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNgZ0acjL_0 Persia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qTisnscut8 Rome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DpcBedbfaU Pick Later...

FilthyRobot and I have each recorded both our perspectives in a cloud duel -- he's stitched all the videos together and uploaded them, with the series starting here: Without spoiling the game, I will say this was a great game. I started as Egypt. FilthyRobot ends up picking Rome. Game...

Made a little spreadsheet for easy reference: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rm7G2MH2O61XmV0ONTwPmWjocPvAF3S6qKfrwZJoqyU/edit#gid=1811857245 So far contains: Nations Families Archetypes Jobs Wonders

Starting Position: Notes on the Start Turn 0 save attached. Settings Map: Pangaea DLC: All Civs and Wonders of the Ancient World. Mods: None Speed: Quick Size: Small, 6 Civs

After learning so much from the last thread, I'm back with another start that made me go "oh no!" This is now Immortal Challenge 13. Poland. Starting Position: Notes on the Start Turn 0 save attached. Settings Map: PerfectWorld3 map script. DLC: All Civs and Wonders of the...

Here's the starting position: Turns out we're completely walled off. I beeline Optics and try to do 4 city tradition, but end up horribly behind, with no viable victory options. If anyone wants to try, here's the starting position save file. Note that I'm using the PerfectWorld 3 map script...

I've been struggling to figure out where/when to deal with Culture in my Science games. For example, last game I played a 4 city Tradition opener as America and aggressively pursued Science and Trade Routes. But in the late game, my civilization was deluged by Ideology Influence and...

Did they change that declaring war no longer ports enemy units out if you had open borders? Turn 149 Portugal declares war. Turn 150 e: Hrm, I was mistaken -- apparently AI does get ported out, but I had Quick Move on so they seemed to instantly be back where they were. But look at the Knights...

Trying to figure out how this is calculated. This has been plaguing in my science victory attempts -- once tourism becomes available, suddenly competing ideologies press down immense unhappniess because of "public opinion." (I ignore Great Artists in the early eras, which looks to be no longer...

I parsed the XML files for the leader traits and made a giant spreadsheet, which I've attached. Some interesting results: Highest WarmongerHate: Ramkhamhaeng, Elizabeth, Gandhi, Washington Lowest: Montezuma, Alexander, Napoleon Highest Victory Competitiveness: Napoleon, Alexander...

I'm considering starting an ALC-style game with the following settings: Small Pangaea High Sea Levels Natural Coastlines No Tech Trading No Tech Brokering Aggressive AI Choose Religions (for flavor) Myself and 9 other random civs Prince Difficulty Quick Speed -- I've been playing these...

What civ do you think is worst off, considering: - Leaders available - Unique Unit, Unique Building - Starting technologies

Just a useful reference I put together to keep track of how each civ's UU and UB differs from the base unit, as well as its starting techs. Comments under UU (and UB) refer to how it differs from its base unit. America Fishing Agriculture Navy Seal Marine (need to look up seal info) Mall...

Hi, I'm still new to running a Specialist Economy (SE) and have learned a lot thanks to the helpful advice available on this very form (a great starting point is http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=197818 and the threads it links). I do have one question, however: how do you assign...

I've been playing Celts lately, and their Charismatic and start with Mysticism, thus making Stonehenge seem like a nice early build. Also, SH's Great Prophet would be nice to building a shrine for my early religion. However, I'm not sure where to fit it in my build order... Right now, I...
