What do you guys think about natural disasters?

They let you decide which % of the purchase price goes to charity. Awesome!

Hippopotamus 6p pang FFA. I was excited to see Carthage cos I've never played a full game with it before. Carthage has a coastal start bias because they get a free harbor in all cities. My coast had no resources so I moved 2 tiles inland on a river hill next to a mountain. While there's many...

My webhost is usually good. Does someone else have trouble viewing the screenshots?

The twin towers of Babel I love starts like these. Nothing to drool over, but definitely in the top 20% of starts (on pang, normal settings, 6p FFA). I love the combination of granary resources and production tiles, I love the rivers, and I especially love the fact that we have a decision to...

Where can I find the formula for settler? On a related note, the decision to buy or produce a settler should depend a lot on your cap tiles. If you have a lot of production tiles, producing a settler becomes more advantegous because you can max production without starving your city. If you...

I've had some really tough decisions with the liberty finisher in G&K. In vanilla civ you would want to get it as soon as possible, take GE, rush HS, take another free engineer, and spend it on porcelain/notre dame which were both on education. I'm glad they changed the tech tree cos that was a...

Worst start I have ever seen... Look, 1 hammer in my cap tiles! That was on Large Islands. 3 players got their own islands and 3 started on mine. These map generators seem to be inherently broken. Only Pangaea seems to produce balanced maps. You get a horrible start on Pang you just move...

Nice cap, eh? Got rolled Ethiopia in a 6p pang and decided to go for a cultural victory with a 2-city build due to terrain and civ. I've never actually seen a culture vic in MP, so it's not the best choice, I know. Just keeps the game interesting when you try different strategies, and maybe we...

I'll dedicate this thread to my adventures in the land of NQ MP FFAs. I think full diplomacy free-for-alls with experienced players make the most intricate civ games ever - actually, make that the most intricate games of all strategy games ever. No Quitters is an open group for anyone, for more...

I've been wondering the same myself, please post what you have worked up so far

Petra is one of the few situational wonders in the game and you want to make it worthless? I don't understand you people :(

I think this would be best. Possibly force a hunn warrior to upgrade into a spear from a hut, too.

I must say in both instances the opponent should have been able to stop me. The first game his warrior saw my battering ram, but continued to explore instead of retreating back to the city. In the second game I had a warrior and a scout, and my opponent had a spear and a scout. I was actually...

I played the huns on both games, agree it's silly and overpowered. The turn 10 victory is my new record :D
