I must say starting a mine on a hill then building a city on it
-before the mine is complete- was very cool to learn here.
[edit]automating settlers with "k" to get irrigation in landlocked squares helps a lot too Too bad they mine oasis...[/edit]
I'm having a problem with the trireme trick> does it work for real? Said to move 2 spaces, then w, then press space bar is not working
Also saw somewhere on this board about irrigating in ocean squares and that isn't working either. Any help here would be appreciated.
I don't know if this qualifies but...
When you start to encounter new civs don't sign peace treaty, if they don't offer you gold demand tribute for it, then demand tribute again. You can get lots of gold, and techs this way. You should be expanding and have force to backup your demands, but even if you don't they might still give it. maybe their already in a war with another civ and don't want another. This finances your wonder building. Just don't get carried away, most of the time it works but demanding too often will piss them off to declare war on you. Whenever they send you an emisarry, or tread on your land is enough.
