Warlord
Ok so, I'm still a newb, and have been playing on Settler since I got the game a couple of months ago. Well one of the people that always post on my threads told me to bump up my difficulty so I bumped it up 2 notches to Warlord. Here's what I learned from playing at a more difficult level:
1. Other civs will actually declare war on YOU
2. When they do, they will be highly organized
3. They will take one of your outlying cities
4 You will be pissed off
5. There are a lot more barbarians to contend with
6. The barbs are stronger and more aggressive
7. Other civs will take your ruins even if you discovered them and are 1 move from claiming the goodies
8. You can't leave anyone unguarded, I had a worker, a scout and even a General captured by placing them just 1 tile over the border.
9. All the other civs must be going for culture victories because they are all riding the top of the scoreboard while I'm going for a dom vic standing in 5th place. Hmmm
Oh well, I enjoy the learning process of Civ 5, and that's good cuz I'm sure getting schooled.
