There also has to be a point where the AI is building surveillance nets in its cities. I say that because I can have intrigue moving right along in several cities and suddenly, the best I get going is steal tech no matter how many ops I perform there.

Well, you *should* build more workers, irregardless of whatever else you're doing. ;)

I think supremacy 3, harmony 3, and purity 1 then I'd decide on which VC to go for. It's just finding those in the web in some sort of logical manner, while also prepping you for the serious science that comes afterwards.

Harmony is kinda easy. You just build the Mind Flower and wait for it to bloom. I already had Stims in most of my 12 cities so the wait was only 10 turns. the hardest part was figuring out I had to pick a tile in the city screen. At first I thought, oh hell, I wonder if all those tiles...

Oh, that's true. Prosperity Synergy L3 is +50% orbital radius as well.

I've seen two things that increase the range of satellites, one is +1, the other is +3 (Launch Complex).

*Mod might want to split* I came looking to see if poeple were getting the +1H from biowells. cuz I'm not seeing an entry on the health popup where it's included. That said, I'm pretty sure I'm getting the health from buildings, or i'd be in *real* trouble. *shrug*

Your typical science plan is Pisa, Porcelain Tower, Hubble. Temple of Artemis and Hanging Gardens early if you can manage them for the food and growth. Though, HG isn't nearly as important with food ships and caravans and I research archery so late, I never get ToA either. :mischief...

Of course he will. Huge marathon maps with 41 cs's are broken that way. :goodjob:

My spies are too busy stealing the bottom half of the tech tree. :crazyeye:

Sorry, you're wrong. A monument doesn't "just give you culture". It gives you tiles. Tiles that contain food, hammers and gold. And if you're lucky, faith and even more culture. Without tiles, your people starve and your shrine never gets built. The only time you shouldn't build a monument...

My last three games: no iron, no coal, no oil. Hard to defend yourself with no frigates, bombers.

Are they still worth it if you are paying the era-premium of 100 extra gold?

Emperor is my favorite because I know I can do anything I want and still win. Immortal is a nice challenge, but I mostly win there too, it's just harder and what I play when I want a "real game". I keep trying deity but can't get over the start advantages the AI has.

I stopped at t85 when NC was complete and I had teched Construction. I have 5 comp bows, 2 archers. I need to tech BW so I can build PWs as my starting warrior got killed by barbs. But the main reason I stopped was GK had just taken Hanoi and I can see about 15-20 units already. He is also...

That's the plan. Three city NC (around t95) with two caravans feeding Edinburgh. I'll finish Tradition around t90. Probably should have taken Liberty instead. Construction for CBs. My religion I got FR, Tithe, Plowshares. The 25% growth before and after I kill [redacted] while teching...

Well, this may be one of the reasons I don't have a deity win yet, but why would you leave a river for a non-mountained hill? I think my first move would be to move the warrior to the hill NW and see if the river wraps around, if so, I'll settle NW, otherwise, I'll probably just settle in...

So we're marking this one "not fixed" ?

The writer/artist/musician has to be right next to a city tile to create a GW.

Musicians and Writers are set on creation. Scientists and engineers you can save.
