    Optimal City Placement

    What are the benefits of Saskatoon over Regina spot? I always settle Regina. If Saskatoon is between the deer and the oil, the city has 3 not workable mountain tiles, while Regina has all the same ressources and no mountains?

    Unit requests thread

    I searched everywhere, but couldn't find an SAS Commando model in the uniform they are best known in (through online games, Counter Strike mostly :D ): completely black with a gas mask. The closest I can think of is the Navy Seal model as the base, with a black texture like in this pack by...

    guided missiles

    So what could improve the GM? I don't think it should do collateral damage. Not even bombers do that. GMs are either meant to be precise weapons... or at least not that strong to affect several units. However they could do more damage to the target unit... and be more expensive to balance...

    guided missiles

    No, GMs are not dealing collateral damage. However I didn't know they can kill. Thought they are the same as bombers. Maybe now I can put them into some use... spotting a lone, massively upgraded elite unit.. fire 3 GMs and forget :D

    guided missiles

    this is more of a general question, not DOC-specific. But since I play DOC now all the time, I'm asking here: do you find the guided missile useful, do you use it? personally I don't really see any sense to use it. it does the same as bombers/jets and only has a range of 4. well it has a 100%...

    how to remove team color from unit?

    Thank you very much for your answer. I thought the modern_armor_envi_256.dds had something to do with the alpha, which is why I wondered why it is completely black. I then opened the regular .dds and found the alpha channel there (hidden), which had the exact spots marked. I deleted the...

    how to remove team color from unit?

    So I found this reskin of the M1A1 Abrams tank in the Varietas Delectas package and wanted to use it, but without the team colors. I already opened the .dds texture file of it but don't see any "blank" spots where team color could be put in. There's also a modern_armor_envi_256.dds which is...

    Hey AluKnight, thanks for your opinion. I've started over 4 times now and maybe I can make it this time. The Mongol hordes only spawned 1 round after Mongol start at the borders of Russia and keep them busy up to now (1450AD I believe, I am at work too lol), so they can't invade me. HRE is at...

    Bug reports and technical issues

    yeah had the same bug too. I loaded a slave into a galley but then sold him via diplomacy screen. the galley remains as 1/2 cargo spaces left... but you can't unload anything as there is no slave anymore.

    Iran

    I played Iran 2 times and somehow never had problems to open borders with 6 Europeans while being Islamic. Nearly every Civ wanted open borders with me in the beginning turns. If they don't want to open, try to gift them 30 gold to improve your relations temporarily, open borders then...

    Strategy Discussion and Guides

    Any advice for the Polish UHV? (Monarch/Epic) #1 is fairly easy.. I build Krakow, Riga and rush for Kiew... those 3 cities can reach lvl 12 pretty quick. for #2 England always beats me. Last time I tried I had Science at 100% for nearly the whole time, all my 3 cities not building but...

    RFCM-LuKo

    I'm not sure if this fits into your mod, but I always missed the ability of arms dealing in Civ4. Even in todays conflicts we see the huge amount of arms trafficking. Proxy wars are not well represented in Civ4/RFC imho. You can gift units to another nation - ok. But I think there should be the...
