    Installed a Mod Wrong...Have I Screwed Up The Game?

    Whilst not new to Civ, I'm new to adding Mods and was installing the AIQuick Mod but it had no installation instructions so, while I realised the .modinfo file should go in either the Mods or DLC folder, I didn't know where to put the WorldTracker.lua file... I searched for an existing file of...

    Quick Questions and Answers

    I'm pretty sure city states just aren't able to take other cities and, imo, they're specifically designed to only ever be one-city empires or they'd stop being "City States". I've played about 150 hours now and have, several times, seen City States in a position to take an AI's city. However...

    You're a star mate. I knew it would be something obvious, but I never even thought to open the City Details screen...doh! I blame the hangover... ;) I must say I also like your example of "Plymouth" and "Not Plymouth"... Cheers

    The patch notes said you could now rename cities and I'm sure it's just something blindingly obvious that I'm missing, but I can't for the life of me work out how to actually do it... I've tried all the methods from previous civs....can anyone tell me how to do it? Thanks in advance.

    No MSI Afterburner OSD Since Patch?

    Ah, that'll be why then! Running the DX12 version since I presumed it would be better than 11. However I've seen people say elsewhere that it hardly makes any difference. For some reason, it doesn't even give me the choice at the start now so I can't go back to 11. Thanks a lot for replying...

    Quick Questions and Answers

    Once you have (I think Armory (Corps) and then Military Academy (Army)) in one of your Encampments, plus the necessary Techs/Civics, then that city can then directly produce a Corps or Army, without having to produce the individual units and combine them first. An arrow appears to the right of...

    Quick Questions and Answers

    I haven't tested it since, now I've moved up in level, I rarely have better units than the AI! However, I always understood it to just mean that only a unit from a higher era beating one from a lower era (i.e. Swordsman vs Warrior as you say) would give you the gold bonus, regardless of either...

    Quick Questions and Answers

    It may sound like a stupid question, but I'll explain why I'm confused... How can you tell what level a unit is? I'm including going for the "Airlift a Level 3 Slinger" achievement in my current game and the number on the unit says 2...so I presume it's level 2. However, when I mouse over the...

    For the promotion, "+x strength when in a district or fort", does the Great Wall count as a district/fort?

    No MSI Afterburner OSD Since Patch?

    The moment I downloaded the recent patch and resumed my game, my on-screen display of GPU and CPU temperature disappeared. It's been working fine on many, many games for years. I knew I hadn't changed any settings, but I checked through all the settings in MSI Afterburner and RivaTuner to make...

    Little things we wish we'd known two weeks ago

    I realise I'm a bit late to the party, but you have just given me my own, personal "Eureka" moment...lol... I've succeeded up to Emperor but am, admittedly, struggling on Immortal and really, REALLY wanted to connect my Great Wall chains together. However, there was a bloody Gypsum quarry in...

    Quick Questions and Answers

    OK. I worked it out and admit my ignorance. Apologies. My Scout, a Recon unit, in the same city counts as a melee unit so I was not allowed to use my archer since that means I have two melee units in the same city. I understand the 1UPT idea, but there really needs to be some leeway added...

    Archer Can't Range Attack by Barns posted Nov 22, 2016 at 9:09 AMI've made it as far as an Emperor Religious victory, but I'm trying Immortal now and am suffering a Barbie invasion and really can't work out why my Archer is unable to attack them. (See screenshot) I should be able to attack both...

    I was gonna say the same sort of thing, but see no point since I'm sure everyone can see the lameness of the whole idea. oo, a brand new desktop PC! A 286? Quite funny really that they would dare to try such a stunt.. Just like the major news channels now.."send us your videos, pics and news...
