It becomes negative 2m after overflow, which happens to pretty much everything in this game after hitting 2m(2^31/1000, apparently they use a signed int32 to represent values with 4 decimal places). However, merge cost cannot be less than 0. From my understanding, it's half the gold buyout cost...

I get Angkor Wat a lot without even trying and I mostly play huge maps on hk diff. Seems to be really low on the AI priority but maybe different AIs have different priorities, I haven't downloaded that many so it's mostly the default ones. However, while I'm willing to see maths that prove me...

Another victim of nerf during beta, the amount of gold transferred used to be extremely high. Their solution was to nerf it to the ground and the cost is now just a token amount. Basically they did the beta too close to release and all they could do was just nerf to oblivion anything deemed too...

It's already that way since last patch, that's what the "anachronism" thing in the patch note really is. the max damage drops all the way to 5 but you need a 60 power difference before you reach that. Even the first drop from 5-25 to 5-20 requires a 30 differential which means my archers would...

I try to avoid egypt/khmer if I can. Some of the ones I enjoy are: Nubians: With their LT by the time you have to worry about gold for your troops the game will already be decided. Their EQ increases production and is therefore actually worth building in the early game. Their EU is just a...

Absolutely, I'm not about to start playing this way, just wanted to prove to myself it could be done. However this strategy kinda points to something a little more fundamental, why do you even need FIMS if you have an invincible army. This only requires 1 tech, almost no production and with...

Not sure if you mean militarily or economically. it does demand a full commitment to the strategy. FIMS quickly become meaningless if all you want to do is spam archers all game long, the only real limitation is going to be your number of city due to the 1 pop per turn per city growth cap...

Wanted to add something to this topic, a pure archer spam army where you avoid all archer upgrade techs does work and is quite broken. It is however extremely tedious to play.

I think the key here is just the first 10-20 turns of ancient which sets the pace for the whole game. Basically, egypt can just jump way ahead of everybody else in the production feedback loop that ultimately is what will translate into every other yield down the road. Faster districts, faster...

So I'm not the only one who has to face the runaway transcendent zulu. I assume it's because there is no militarist civ in contemporary.

For the +10 gold and science, it's all your territories. So with 50 territories your capital will generate 500 gold and 500 science. It is modified by +%. The liege is the superior in a feudal system, it is the civ that controls the vassal, usually the player. Basically, you can remotely build...

You can see why you are losing support at any time by just going in the diplomacy screen, I suggest you reload some auto-saves and take a look fi you are caught by surprise. A battle lost is a battle lost, the fact that it's a scout doesn't really matter much to the game.

It's hard to tell what it is, I'm pretty sure it's not a ratio I've also had games where it never triggers, I've seen it trigger at various values/ratios. All I can tell so far is that building units delays it. I have a save with 3 cities, triggers next turn if I do nothing, if I buy out all...

Plane squadrons don't have a breakdown like armies do, you only get the explanatory text in the tooltip. edit: it works with nukes too, all "squadrons" are broken. 7 thermonuclear warheads = 1365 gold per turn
