Only if its not considered a game breaking disable (like disabling barbarians or something). I don't want to use it if it negates the difficulty levels of Monarch and Emperor; otherwise whats the point right? Do lots of people disable this setting?
Hi all,
Should I feel bad about disabling Tech Brokering on my Monarch games?
I usually struggle with Monarch, winning only about 30% of the time and usually by space race. I read a few threads here about disabling tech brokering and I gave it a shot.....annnnd I absolutely ran away...
I was presented with a random challenge during my current game. It basically said, be the first CIV to produce 8 muskets and you'll get a prize...I forget the story the accompanied the challenge part.
Well I cranked out 8 muskets and WHOA :eek: they gave me a free golden age!!!
true story.
I let them heal, I want to get scouts and warriors woodsman II so they can fly around through jungles and whatnot....Usually they can last a while if they stick to the jungle/forest tiles, until the axemen start showing up. Then they can use woodsman II to run Sir Robin style.
Ahhhh OK. Thanks everybody, the building the wonder scenario makes sense now. I wonder why I've never seen it before? Oh well, he's no threat either way. Any other wierd responses you've seen that are far from the norm?
Hello all,
Wanted to see if anyone had seen this type of reason before.....Was trying to get Saladin to trade me Literature and it was redded (not a word) out. The reason: We have our reasons....
I had never seen this before and considering that I was +3 with Saladin it suprised...
Thanks for the tips Sisiutil. From all the strategery guides and tips here, I know that early wars are essential as you move up the difficulty ladder. I guess, I just need to be better at creating a dominant army, faster....Unless I play as Rome, and have Legions (I refuse to use the P-word)...
Thanks for the help. This may seem like a stupid question, but how do you tell what "tech paths" the AI are doing....Do you have to watch and see what new techs becomes avaialble (or dropoff if I have it) on the tech trading page, and try to guess what their long term goals are?
Lately, I feel as if I have to turn off Tech trading in order to enjoy the game experience. The probem is, I don't feel as if I've truly earned a victory when I do this. I'm trying to work my difficulty from Prince to Monarch, but no matter how well I'm playing, I always seem to fall behind...
I agree Bubba....I try to pick Random for all the settings available in Custom Game; however, I wish there was a random option for map type as well (IE: Continents, Great Plains, etc...).
Gonna have to go with Tokagowa as well. King of the sneak attacks, even when he shares your religion....and I thought this time would be different :sad:
