I've seen it brought up a few times in this thread but not really addressed. I just started a new game (Playing as Rome on Eastern USA map), and have now enacted two policies that should be bumping my culture. But I'm still sitting at 3 culture a turn (even though I should be getting 7 culture...

Well the thing with the pirate version is I don't recall installing it (it was never in my start menu and steam was never installed.) I don't even run an Iso for it. Just ran the crack and it worked. I will try that but I'm not entirely sold that that is what's causing it (I hope its that...

I read a few topics here with people having the same problem, but those solutions didn't fix the problem I bought the GOTY edition earlier this evening, and brought home and installed it. After installing and updating I clicked the "play it now" button, and the prompt asking what version of...

Does being involved in a Permanent Alliance lower your score?

Don't know if I worded my title right, but I'm just curious if there is a time when building cottages is considered no longer worth it due to the time it takes to make them towns. For example, in my current game, I founded a city in 1300 in some empty space I had blocked off with my borders...

Thanks for the responses guys. An update from me: Am currently playing the Earth 18 Civ's map as the United States, and decided to wage an early war, so I tried to get catipults ASAP. I had the eastern USA while he had Mexico and W USA. Once I had 5 catapults built I attacked. Monty...

I imagine that being an early wonder whore does not help me when trying to get a military going early? I always try and build the early wonders for their culture, GP Points and the fact I can hardly ever get the late game ones! But it eats up huge amounts of my production doesn't it?

Sorry for the double post Generally the reason I wait for tanks is because by then I have nothing left to build building-wise, so I just spit out unit after unit hahaha The more I type the more I think my strategy is flawed :P

My problem is that the AI always has way more units than me!! Do I build too many buildings??

Does joining in a permanent alliance sometime during the game lower your score?

Haha yeah I know the Gunship bonus to tanks, hence my suiciding of Artillery to soften them up, and I don't like to lose too many of my SAMs attacking so they can defend my tanks incase Gunships show up to attack my stacks, and also to protect my newly captured city since my tanks probs need a...

Quick Defense in options?

Do you suicide your Seige weapons and mop up with your other units? What level upgrades do you guys give your seige weapons? I tend to do that with artillery if a city is full of gunships so my Tanks/SAMs can clean up the mess

Hi all, I'm not necessarily a n00b, but I'm no expert forsures. I'm just looking for some early-mid game tips. My general strategy is to try and avoid all wars until I get tanks, or at least infantry. It serves me well, but I cannot for the life of me wage a succesful war before then...

I'm the exact opposite. I usually struggle early (but somehow emerge well off late game, and that's when I get my good playing.) Teach me your early game secrets!!! Hahaha
