You can't decrease the unhappiness due to population numbers, but you can increase overall happiness in a variety of ways. You might want to check out this thread.Hello all. Ihave some angry citizens in some of my cities. They tell me there is too many people in the city. How do i manage this? Thanks for the help.
I think there is a thread somewhere with city lists in it.
Mali has Mansa Musa as leader, Spiritual (no anarchy) and Financial (+1 commerce from tiles with 2+ commerce already). His UB is a forge which also adds +10% commerce. His UU is a str4 (rather than 3) archer that loks like a javelin thrower.
He is a massive tech whore and will trade techs with anyone

Do you also happen to know the science and military leader names (or whatever equivalents there are in Civ4)? Oh, and what's the name of the UU?

I'm looking at buying a laptop with a memory card "256MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650". Does that comply with the minimal graphic requirements ? I'm sure there's a better place to ask this, so don't hesitate to point me to somewhere else. Thanks !
Why do some of my Terraces provide +2 and others, +4 ?
Because some terraces exist for less than 1000 years and some exist for more than 1000 years.
and by the way... FOUR gems!? 4!?
It only happens once.I was about to ask about the mechanics of the culture increase, but you beat me to it. So, to make sure I have it right: every culture-producing building that is over 1000 years old produces double culture, is that correct? Does this include wonders? If a building is 2000/3000/4000 years old, does culture increase again, or is this a one-shot deal?
Funny how I never noticed that before. Oh well.
What determines the length of anarchy for civic changes? I generally play marathon speed and generally switch into slavery (2 turns,) hereditary rule (2 turns,) organized religion (2 turns,) and bureaucracy (3 turns) as soon as they become available, and then by the time I want to switch into emancipation, universal suffrage, free speech/nationalism, mercantilism/communism/free market the anarchy is up to four or five turns (or more if I want to do all at once.) Lately I find myself saving a great person for a golden age mainly to avoid all the anarchy.

The Mali UU is known as The Skirmisher, which is a pretty hopeless generic name really, You might want to read up on Mali and invent your own
Thankyous. But what does GP, GA, GS, GE, GM, GG and GSPY mean? After reading the FAQ it seems like GP = great priest, GA = great artist, GS = great scientist, GE = great engineer and GM = great merchant. But what's GG and GSPY?
