    OMG the jump from monarch to emperor diff is HUGE

    i just finished emperor difficulty for the 1st time using mayans (indus/agri). it was an uphill battle the majority of the time. played on pangea 70 %. here's my victory status screen. https://i.imgur.com/lLAEkAs.jpg lots of things i've noticed in difficulty: -lack of strategic resources...

    question of fascist gov't

    sounds like a good strategy i could have used in my last game. i couldn't kill the celts fast enough to reach domination without having my cities revolt or flip. so i'd make peace with them and the newly conquered cities were happy but once i start up the war again with the celts, the celt...

    i just finished my mayan (agri/indust) game on monarch difficulty. by far my easiest win on monarch. agri/indust is very powerful combination; i was way ahead in the tech race. i went as far as getting modern armor and none of the AI civs even had infantryman yet. im thinking ramping up...

    looking through my manual saves, i could be wrong. i only have 2 golden age files from 1695 AD and 1730 AD, clearly from 1 GA period. oh well.

    ok, good to know about 'age of science' since game programmers have confirmed the bug. anyways, yea i did get 2 golden ages in my current playthrough of monarch difficulty. i know im not getting it mixed up with 1 GA and 1 'age of science", it was distincly 2 GA at different moments of my time.

    im playing on monarch difficulty. also about using your scientific leader to increase scientific output, its called "age of science". scientific research in all cities is increased by 25% for 20 turns. https://i.imgur.com/krixa83.jpg i have to think it works, maybe it was just something...

    are you saying this does absolutely nothing?? lulzz.. wow, what a big game mechanics fail? quick question about the Grand Wonders. if i am mayans, and i made either the pyramids or hanging gardens first, is it a guarantee that i WILL get a golden age? the text says that you "may" trigger a...

    ahhh.. okkay.. i thought everything was at a standstill during anarchy, but if food is produced during, then it makes sense to not delay republic. kinda off topic but: i triggerred my golden age after i built the 'theory of evolution' which states that it may trigger GA if your civ is...

    ok, agricultural + industrious seems like the 2 best traits, at least on monarch difficulty. i couldn't fathom just how a +1 food on your city square would do much of anything, but it really helps, and also you don't have a dead city with a bunch of desert tiles, as long as you can irrigate it...

    yea clicking on the upper right face works. i understand what your saying. when its the AI's turn, they sometimes bring up negotiations with you, and its either, take it or leave it, but you can't modify the terms. so clicking on the advisers face on the upper left so you have access to all...

    which of the 8 Civ specific characteristics do you guys like most?

    ok i think i know why i got confused. when i finish researching a tech, or destroy a civilization, i always choose "whats the big picture", and never "Great, lets play the game". so if im scientific and enter the new era, out of habit i choose 'whats the big picture', and then i get confused...

    game mechanics of resistors in conquered cities??

    ahh most excellent. didn't know about the culture difference affecting resistors. wish they would put it in the guides or manual. and i do believe you're correct about armies, units inside the army count, just not the army unit itself. ill try and keep this in mind to see how much culture...
