Think we can do it? We are few, but our will is strong... I'm doing my part in 1 hour and 47 minutes. Are you?

Hello all, First off, I didn't want to post this in technical support since I'm not looking for support so much as just gathering data on the subject. So, here's my situation. I usually play multiplayer with a small group of friends and have only been able to get together with one of them...

Hey all, I actually posted this as a question in the official Civ V issues thread quite a while ago, but didn't get any feedback, so I'm just creating a quick thread that I know may well be resolved in no time flat. I also didn't see it mentioned in the list of issues on the first page of that...

I was in another thread and someone came out and said they didn't like religion in Civ IV. This kind of surprised me, as I thought almost everybody liked it. I'm a bit curious to know what the community opinion is on religion as a game concept now. I'm keeping it to a relatively simple...

Well, been playing some multiplayer BTS since the patch and my old friend the OOS error is back - for me, anyways. That's Windows XP, BTS, 3.17, direct IP connection. Just wondering, is anyone else getting OOS errors in multiplayer? I've tried applying the old fixes, which worked last patch...

You know, I've been wondering... What is everyone's favorite unit? For me, in a recent thread, several people say that they skipped mine altogether. I've had a lot of fun with a lot of units, but no single unit in the entire game gets me quite as excited as... Longbowmen. In a period...

I must have done well over a thousand starts before, but have yet to see one like this... No forests at all (that's a first for me, I think), tons of elephants, a banana... I haven't explored beyond, but I'm sure it's mired in jungle.

Does anyone notice that so very often when someone posts a question/comment/whatever in here, it very often goes like this: "Last game I was going along merrily killing my fifth other country with Praetorians, my score triple that of any CPU in the world, when I got random event X. What does X...

Since a bit after I moved up to Emperor in BTS, I've been advocating a strategy I've been calling the "stasis rush"... I don't believe I'm the first to come up with this by a long shot, but I've found a lot of people in the forum find it to be a novel concept. I've had *tremendous* success...

Just a thought... I almost never join GG's to single units because I find you end up with more of a liability than anything else... Part of the problem, to my eye, is that those great generals bound to units aren't all that versatile, where the other ways you can employ them are. You bind...

Hey all, I've been playing for quite a while now and I always assumed that high/low/medium sea level just affected the amount of land on islands, with low leading to larger, less snaky islands, and high leaving to thinner snaky landmasses... Unfortunately, I never really had any basis for...

Just curious, has anyone else declared war on the English recently and got the impression that Firaxis went a bit above and beyond with their AI and tried to make them live up to Churchill's "Never give up, never surrender!" thing? I guess I haven't found myself declaring a real war on the...

I've moved up to playing Immortal now and let me tell you, it's rough... Last night something happened which got me thinking. I was playing as Louis and started out backed into a corner by Brennus (who had founded a religion and was competing with my Louis culture as a result). I was only...

Being someone who enjoys playing the French, I suppose I have more occasion to think upon the use of the Musketman class unit that you get with gunpowder, but I'm wondering - am I the only one who thinks this is an inherently weak unit design which has a very small time-window to boot? 1...

Something I'm wondering about, whether anyone elses' experience has matched mine. I play a lot of direct IP multiplayer games with a friend of mine and we've worked our way up difficulty by difficulty from Noble and we now play Emperor most frequently. From Noble to Monarch we chose our...

Hello all, I've been searching through the forums and have seen a lot of direct IP connect game issues popping up, but I have a slightly different one I'm encountering. Here goes... We've been running two player, emperor difficulty, 8 to 10 AI games on large and huge (we used to do huge...
