If the Mughals spawn when India has their capital at Delhi, do they still flip the city? I think I figured this out after reading the civilopedia. The stability level (i.e. solid/shaky etc) only reflects the stability number once a stability check takes place. So in my case, even though the...

How do the European respawns in the 1800s (such as Italy/Greece) work in 1.17? If I control the entire Italian core and have +ve stability, can they still spawn?

This looks like the new map, in my original post I was specifically referring to 1.17 (old map)

Is this the case with the SVN version as well? On the maps in the stable version, I see a solid blue line demarcating the flip areas along with colors for the core/historical/foreign areas. I don't see this on the newer maps. I don't know if Alexandria can be settled on multiple tiles, but...

The list of features for 1.17.4 says Maybe I am misinterpreting this, but I see on the Arabia stability map that Egypt is contested and not core. Does this mean non-capital cities in the Egyptian core (e.g. Alexandria) will not flip to Arabia on their spawn? . This is contrary to what I...

Can someone remind me which file the civ-specific tech multipliers reside in? I remember numbers that were something like 140 for Egypt and Babylon, all the way down to 60 or 70 for European civs.

I generally agree to flips and then re-conquer after some time has passed (IIRC newly spawned civs get some turns of birth protection now). If I know a city is going to flip I would build military/civilian units, sure the city won't be as good as a city with all the bonuses you mentioned, but it...

That wasn't it: I had a ghost get to level 7 but not get the promotion: But then many turns later, a different ghost who got to level 5 got the event :lol:

Is Rathus Denmora not eligible for Aeron's Chosen? I thought the requirement was level 6 recon unit with marksman ability; mine has reached level 8 but hasn't got it yet.

Bringing this thread back from the dead because I tried a space race with Babylon on 1.17 (regent/epic). Sadly I fell short by 8-9 turns (winning by score instead), but it was pretty fun being the tech leader consecutively 3000BC to 2020AD :D. The strategy of settling the rice near Mumbai...

Sorry I've been out of town (spring break!). I'm down anytime tomorrow onwards, but I also do not know how to host. Re: settings, maybe a rule that you cannot settle closer to an opponent's capital than your own in the first 100t is more easily enforceable?

Interested, what does this entail exactly? That I read your thread (which I presume is this) and not anyone else's if I'm commenting? What about the main thread?

Interesting! Perhaps it's a combination of a bad RNG roll plus the Sheaim not doing very well in my recent games. I realized I've never actually played FFH with unrestricted leaders :lol: but will give it a shot! Also on another note, does researching Infernal Pact not make peace with the...

I've noticed that the AI hardly ever founds AV, despite it being potentially very powerful (ritualists+Rosier) in the midgame. The Sheaim do sometimes, but hardly ever anyone else.

You sound like a great teacher! I got 100% on the civilizations in ~3.5 mins, I have played this mod way too much :D
