Okay, I'll be honest. I never really figured out Espionage. I love Beyond the Sword and Rhye's, but I never figured out how to use espionage effectively. I delight in reading the Domination and Conquest forums and it seems like most people use it to steal technologies from smaller civs like...

Hey fellow Rhye's players. I've been playing this game for a while and I'm not sure why I'm not getting the Balkans/Mesopotamia/Black Sea goal in 1700. I have posted my saved game. It should work with all the most recent updates. Perhaps someone can load it and tell me if I've genuinely...

I was playing a game last night where Byzantine wasn't in its usual tile. (3000 BC start) It was one space to the left of the strait so that ships couldn't get into the black sea. What made this really interesting, however, was that when 1500 rolled around and I had conquered all of Greece, I...

What if Columbus was right and there really was a direct route between Europe and Asia. In this map, I took the normal world map and deleted the Americas and cut out the Pacific Ocean. Now England and Japan share the same sea! Let the chaos begin! Europe: Spain England France Italy...

My roommate is playing a Germany game in BtS and had a question. For the German UHV, does "control" mean you have to conquer France, etc... or does vassalization also work? Spain is killing France following the 1280 plague and France wants to be Germany's vassal in order to survive. If...

So I hit 1650 with Open Borders with more than 7 other civilizations. And it said that I failed to complete it. Is it supposed to be exactly seven civilizations??? This is very frustrating as I have been playing this game for many hours now and I have greatly exceeded the minimum requirement...

Hey Rye, I had I guess what amounts to a complaint, but more like alerting you to a potential problem. In several of the games I have played as America, I have found it totally impossible to build the Statue of Liberty. For example, in a game I just "finished" (I declared myself the winner...

So this is weird. Here's the relationship "tree": Persia is the vassal of both Babylon and Mongolia. Babylon and Mongolia are at war with each other. Babylon is the vassal of Arabia. Arabia is at war with both Mongolia and Persia. WHAT?! If you email me (Kaiser.Benjamin@gmail.com)...

When I load the mod and go to host and launch the Earth Map 24 Civs, either with the 24 civs or even without the mod loaded, it won't let me select whether to close a slot or leave it open. The same is true for Pantastic's Huge Earth map. This leads me to believe that it isn't the mod, it's...

If I set the "Always war" then I, the sole human player, end up at war with all the computers. But I want all the computers to be at war with all the other computers. So I tried that "Always at war or peace" but it set everyone to permanent peace with everyone else. >.< Am I missing...

Second War of Schleswig, Austo-Prussian War, Franco-Prussian War, American Civil War I was thinking that a really good Scenario might be a North America/Europe map that covers the years from 1861-1871 (or maybe 75.) Even without any triggered events or wars, it would still be a good map to...
