so ya this is my first thread. thank you for having me on this great site.
worked my way through chieftan and warlord. won the game on chieftain by a mile eventually science and total points. then tried warlord, took over the whole world and eventually won science victory. i always play 8 civs.
now im on prince level. i am using napoleon.
i cant get anywhere close to where i was on warlord. i have 5 cities only. i cant expand more because unhappiness is plaguing me and i am struggling to keep it above 0 i have exhasted all resources, trade etc.. i always snatch up lux resources nearbyu as quickly as possible when starting my games. gold became a problem so i started building more trading posts.. but now i cant get my cities to grow. this late in the game i have 5 cities the biggest one being a 16. my city with the biggest food is 22. biggest production is 32. i got 16 rifleman for an army at this stage and the americans are camped out right next to me waiting to take a bite outta me which they probably could. im the iroquois right now and hooking them up with all my when they ask cuz i dont want them to destroy me. i got 134 science per turn, 17 gold per turn, and 45 culture per turn but thats gna sink cuz steam power comin soon.
my question is how do i balance everything out. it seems if i push one thing everything else suffers, and if i try to balance it i dont grow in any way shape or form i just lose harder. lol. and again my unhappiness. when i get and extra 10 happiness by building theatres that ten sinks to zero so fast..
any help appreciated. i obv got a long way to go i dunno how the u guys rape this on deity. thanks again.
