So assuming you survive all the way to Sorcery, how do you best capitalize on it? Have 2 fire mana available right away? Pump out Adepts right from the get-go, and rush to knowledge of the ether right away? What percentage of your army would you say consist of spell-casters, and what mana and...

converting someone to your state religion can be instrumental in acheiving a religious victory without war, because you can send your own inquisitors in there to remove heretics from your allies cities. I had a real hard time winning my last game because the khazad, who were friendly with me...

I noticed in my last game that having two mages cast Sanctify on two seperate ruins on the same turn only reduced the Armageddon the first time.

Thanks for all the new input. Some people suggested agrarianism and aristocracy for an early economy, so i tried it. I only had 3 cities but my science slider had to be 60%. Education was 45 turns but luckily I got the great artist event and rushed that. Code of laws was even longer. Am I...

Thank you all for replies, and please keep it up. Regarding economy, it seems no matter what civilization I play, unless my capital starts near three luxury resources or something, I have got to get festivals as early as possible. my first explorers might get me some starting money from...

I try to play on Emperor on large, Continent maps, and get my butt kicked routinely regardless of civilization I play. I feel maybe I'm not being as efficient as I could be in the first 100-150 turns or so. Here is general my build order: Warrior; Worker; Warrior; Warrior; Settler; Warrior...

I hope the AI's inability to mount a competant sea-borne invasion is something that gets fixed soon. I like playing Erebus maps a lot and navies and ocean invasions play an important part on those maps. As it is I can just sit on my island or isolated valley with a warrior guarding each city...

Well in another game it was just me and the Hippus in the council and I was allowed to vote for all kinds of things. In the particular game I'm citing above there were six council members including myself.

Hey, had a few issues pop up in my last game and didn't see them in the known issues post. 1. Had the angelic procession event take place in my territory. Both options said they would cause -3 to the armageddon counter, but I could only use the first one (playing as Khazad). After clicking...

I was wondering is someone musically inclined could identify the instrument dominating the Grigori theme music. It has a kind of sad, buzzing quality to it. Some kind of clarinet?

And another one for The Nexus --- The Overcouncil's decree that the evil and tainted civilizations inhabiting the Ozalic continent be supressed and reformed had been attempted and failed by each of the council members in turn. The initial incursion by Ljosalfar rangers into the forests of...

This entry is for the Obsidian Gate, and based off a similar situation that happened to me in-game. Sadly with current mechanics it doesn't work exactly as described, but whats the point of flavor text if not a little embellishment? Obsidian Gate The shouts of Kain's secretary weren't...

Hi all! I have Civ4 and BTS through Steam, and used the .33 installer to install it into the Steam folders. After installation, it provided me with a desktop shortcut to get directly into FFH. Clicking the shortcut causes an error window saying "Mods\Fall from Heaven 2 033 \ is an invalid...

That sounds reasonable. I just started a Terra game and on finding the New World discovered every available square inhabited by a stack of 4 wolf packs. Thought i applied the latest patch but i guess i did not! Thanks guys!

here you are http://forums.civfanatics.com/uploads/83374/Nate_AD-0269.Civ4SavedGame I sat there with a watch to get accurate times and at the beginning tturns take 5-6 seconds to complete after hitting the end turn button. At about turn 274 or 275 they take in excess of 45 seconds. If...

gah, it happened again, and at nearly the same turn too on a completely new game!

i'm around turn 275 on my prince-level difficulty game and just in the last few turns i've had a very frustrating issue where the wait time after a hit the 'end-turn' button has suddenly jumped from a few seconds to 1-2 minutes. There was no gradual build up as the game got more complicated, it...

someone needs to post a picture of the unit in question, as I haven't run across it yet. I'm inferring its Doviello, but they never seem to show up in my games :( As far as disturbing violence in ffh, I don't think any of the units and animations in the game are really that bad, that I've...

Really? Well excuse me then, I'm going to have to stop playing your mod for a while whilst I get on a plane to Vegas!

Couple bugs I have noticed so far in .95: Every single goody hut I grabbed at the beginning of the game awarded me a free technology. This is nice, but I doubt it is how its supposed to work. The regular lighthouse costs 200 hammers. The Great Lighthouse also costs 200 hammers. Hmm...
