Okay. Very easy to test; went into world-builder and toggle on all the C2C combat mods. With 10K XP, the unit upgraded to Early Tank was able to get Flanking III, tactics and all five levels of withdraw (and might as stuff). So with Fight or Flight activate, the game clearly runs different...

Okay. Double-checked. Fight or Flight is OFF, because when I started, I didn't enable all the C2C Combat mods (I forget why, but maybe I was concerned about the animal stacks as it mentions them in the player's guide and I rather drastically overestimated the overall difficulty (it's been a...

Okay, Testing via world-builder with 10k XP as suggested. New Early Tank + Lead by Warlord = Able to get Back-Off 5 (and Speed) New Early Tank + Lead by Warlord + Lead by Noble = Able to get Back-Off 5 and speed New Early Tank + Lead by Warlord + Lead by Noble + Speed = Able to get Back-Off 5...

According to the civipedia, the only requirements for Blitz is Combat 3 (or something else for air units). Both the Back Down and Flanking promotion trees seem to be self-contained in terms of pre-reqs, hense why I was puzzled (since the tech pre-req for Back Down 5 is, like, Warfare). Of...

(Note: This regards to v40.1 specifically, since I can't update without breaking the saves.) I have a bombard mammoth at level *cough* 38. If I upgrade it to an early tank, I get a few promotions from losing City Raider (et al). Oddly, I do not seem to be able to get higher than Back-Up 3. (I...

Righto. New question. A nation (Inca) spawned in (from a barbarian minor nation) with no portrait, just pink. (There have been a lot of civilisations rising and falling and being wiped out.) Should I be concerned? I poked around in the Wordlbuilder, but I can't see a way to, for example...

Is air units (specifically ornithopters and early fighters) not getting any XP for bombarding ground units a C2C thing or a regular Civ IV thing (I can't remember) or is it a bug...?

Any idea exactly why automated workers are repeatedly building fortresses when I have them explictly set to not build over other improvements and preserve forests? I have now deleted and put a different improvement on the same two tiles (not in city radiuus, but with my territory) about four or...

Okay. Still having some trouble with corporations. Realistic Corporations is now OFF. (Via world-cuilder.) I have now founded two corporations, but I can't see an option to build any executives. Is there something I'm missing? Is there a later tech that enables executives? (Currently, I'm in the...

Is there a way, short of parking a ship on every single tile, of preventing barbarian ships from pillaging your tunnels?

Aaah. Right. That'd do it! Well, frag me. You CAN get at those settings in the World Builder without having to do, like, a save-as-scenario. (I could have saved myself a restart early on when I forgot to flag random seed on reload after all!) Dunno how I missed it the first time. That's well...

I am on 40.1 (1900 turns in!), with (apparently unfortunately, if I read a previous post by Thunderbird aright) Realisitc Corporations on. I have for a while theorhetically been eligable to found a corporation, but there has been no option to so. I currently have "closed borders" which in theory...

Where do you look for your traits? It's not display8ing on the Foriegn Adviser screen (it's only showing Industrious I and I know I have Charismatic I, Innovative I and Islolationist I and now Industrious II, since it just offered me the option to upgrade the former to level 2 or remove the...

I'll look at that tomorrow, thanks. What makes a minor into a normal civ?

Right, thanks. Okay, I can just ignore it then. (I had previously had events and they were fine, so...) Actually, second question - do minor civs become full civs over time? (I'm on v40.1 I think, by the way, 1600 turns in, so not gonna update if it stands a chance of breaking the saves...)...
