    Some (advanced?) assorted questions..

    then I'm honestly still a bit baffled about the pollution.. I do avoid railroad tracks as well, since I assumed that did consume. I think I'll take a few screenshots next time and post them here, see if someone has any ideas!

    Some (advanced?) assorted questions..

    Thanks y'all for the quick responses. I'm glad to see there were some conflicting responses, means I was not an idiot for not knowing these! So the last couple of bits to clarify then would be: a) Wind/Solar farms - so it seems then as per the responses above as long as a they are built within...

    Some (advanced?) assorted questions..

    Thanks man. On this one: Yeah, I get they work without the bonuses, my question was.. would *some* buildings still get bonuses? Say for example I my city has a research lab, a supermarket, and a broadcast station at their respective centers. I don't have enough power for all of them, but I do...

    Some (advanced?) assorted questions..

    Hi folks, I have a bunch of unrelated open questions I was hoping someone would be able to answer! Here we go: -What’s the range for wind/solar farms? I’ve found that constructing them outside of actual city range will still give my city power, and I get to save a tile for city projects.

    Religious units/rockstar promotions

    Not sure if I'm doing something wrong here but, pressing the touchpad does not do anything for me (with the unit selected or otherwise) : /

    Religious units/rockstar promotions

    Doesn't seem to work on PS4 : ( The <Share> button just opens the console share menu; the <options> just opens the game's menu. Military units just have the promotions button within their action bar, even if no promotion is available, so you can always click on it and see which ones the unit...

    Religious units/rockstar promotions

    Nobody knows if this is possible? This is very hard to keep track of otherwise, particularly if you play over the course of multiple days.

    Religious units/rockstar promotions

    How can you see which promotions you've assigned to your religious units or rockstars? Expanding their action bar does not display the promotion icon like with military unit so, I keep forgetting which promotions I've given them. (PS4 version, assuming the same on other consoles)

    Installing Mods on Civ5 for Mac

    Thanks AlanH. This has bugged me for years, never managed to get it running on a mac and ended up giving up! I can see the maps and Load Scenario button indeed. Turned out to be quite simple, do I feel silly now... Thanks again!

    Installing Mods on Civ5 for Mac

    Hi there, I would like to ask for some help with loading mods/scenarios. For reference, I have the Steam Civ5 version, with all DLC. Within my menu I can see the MODs button properly. I think this was by default as I do not remember doing anything special to enable it - but trying to find...

    Quick Questions and Answers

    I seem to have the same problem and can't find an answer.. I have downloaded a bunch of mods which I can see in "MOD->Browse Mods", and they have the green tick meaning they are enabled. Now according to what I have read should be able to find these scenarios from "MODS->Single...

    Deep sea screwing still around?

    It has been a while since I last played Civ5. I was thinking about giving it another try with the new patches and I wonder.. can a barbarian in a canoe still sink my embarked tanks and modern infantry units with total impunity?

    Is it time? Hitler as leader of Germany

    It was a result of losing a war and having two ideologically opposed factions taking over the country. Or do you think the country would have been divided if the instead of USSR the east had been occupied by, say, UK?

    Is it time? Hitler as leader of Germany

    Hitler didnt divide anything. How could he? He was worm fodder when it happened. The inability of USA and USSR to handle things properly created the division. Was it a consequence of WW2? Of course it was. But the way people put it here is like he deliberately had it as his personal goal.

    Is it time? Hitler as leader of Germany

    Germany was divided because of the USA and USSR, *not* because of Hitler.

    Bonus resources: farms or pasture/planation?

    Yes, I have seen the balance mods which do include an additional building that provides extra food for each bonus resource. It is a nice addition and certainly makes sense. But getting a bonus with bonus resources seems like something that belongs to the game itself and not a fan-made mod...

    Bonus resources: farms or pasture/planation?

    Ah, I guess I have never tried doing it.. Well that seems just wrong IMO. A bonus resource should yield higher benefits than a regular tile! Cheers,

    Bonus resources: farms or pasture/planation?

    Working cattle, banana, wheat, etc. tiles will provide you with a +1 food when you improve them with pasture, plantation, etc. However this is exactly the same as the initial farms, and with the farming bonuses you get later in the game is actually much better to get a farm instead. Are there...
