Thank you. I appreciate the time, and I apologize for my ignorance.

Ok. Then I have done something wrong (perhaps in downloading the game itself from d2d). I have tried w/o Lt. Bob's. I extracted your files into the Games>BTS>MOD folder. When I do, I can start game>Advanced>Load a Mod and load your Mod. I can confirm that the Mod had been Loaded. After that I...

I cannot get 34 civs to load up in the Mod. Whatever I do I am limited to 18 civs. I have downloaded Lt. Bobs dll file (version 6.0) and placed it in the Mod folder, still no more than 18 civs show up. Can someone help me figure out what I am doing wrong? I downloaded this map and...

Lol. So true. I loved running like 600 yards on 1 play with Bo Jackson. I would take sack back to my 1 yd line, then run him from goaline to other 1 yd line, then back to my endzone, rinse, repeat, rinse, repeat. The defenders would just bounce off of his feet like popping corn. LT was...

People are wondering where you got the preposterous 700,000 number as it is complete fantasy. Stick to pretending to be an expert on military equipment, and leave your lame propaganda at home; there is no need nor desire for it on these forums.

Yeah, but you are making 7-10 when 15 will do. What does book say about that? :)

But not after 2 or 3 wars. After that the human will easily have more land than any other single cramped AI could possibly get without war (not necessarily the case if you play with default or less) Bottomline is, if you cramp the AI with other AI then their "bonuses" against you are negated...

No, there are unit costs. But I wouldn't pay too much attention to them. I would build as many units as are necessary to achieve your goals (and maybe a few more for emergencies). If you start losing money then increase your commerce (or gold) somehow.

Negatives are not that huge. Sounds like you are whipping about 50 times less often than you should. Assuming the goal is maximum efficiency (without regard to morality). In mutliplayer it is beyond crucial, of course.

Precisely. There are not enough units in each era for every civ to have a "unique" one. You would end up having to make several civs have a "unique" maceman, "unique" longbow, etc. Perhaps give every civ 2 unique units, maybe. One early game, one late. Maybe. And again, "unique"...

Off topic, but you need to acquire a rudimentary understanding of economics.

More AIs would help, as it would mean less barb-spawning fog. But I also suggest you "fogbust" liberally. It is not unusual for me (in games where there is a ton of room) to have 6 or 7 units fanned out around my territory to stop barbs from spawning really close. Usually I use combinations of...

The most consistent thing that jumps out at me when I listen to your descriptions is that you are not teching very well. This could be for any number of reasons, but I think it is your biggest problem. Make sure you actually work the cottages, they must grow to continue to be effective...

What I notice first is the utter lack of hammers in your capital. That looks like a challenge.

In terms of popular culture, there is no one close to the US in terms of breadth of spread. In terms of older cultural contributions like architecture and art, then of course the US can't compete because it was founded in 1776 AD. In terms of power, the US is off the charts. The "powergraph"...
