I generally really like CiV - Yes, it does need a lot of combat AI improvement and yes we are all beta testers but I do not mind ;) I also noticed that it is about 1 level easier up to maybe Emperor/Immortal but Deity surely still feels like Deity, especially if you have a tough starting...

Keep up the great work Thal! I also love how your balance changes are only minor little tweaks, that nevertheless still have a significant and meaningful gameplay impact - for the good ofc! :) Keep it this way, and I will keep downloading all your mods ;)

I loled Thanks ;)

I'd be interested to know, what are the subjective patterns you have recongized then??

Why is there no mention of fixing maritime city states? I believe it has been sufficiently proven by multiple users (e.g. Sulla) how broken the current mechanic of maritime citiy states makes the game. Food becomes kind of irrlevant to your city - Gold is all that matters!! There haven been...

Thanks for the info - I will look into it tonight!

Hi, While I get the basics of changing values for strength, movement etc. I was wondering where to find/how the change the following: 1: Can I increase the likelyhood of AI producing horseman? I would even go as far, as saying, that if they have access to horses the will at least build 1...

"Oh look, he did a Lemmy!" I LOVE THAT ONE!!!! :D

Luker's comment on Pyramids: They do increase worker improvement building speed by 50% --> this translates into a 1/3 reduction of construction time!! (e.g. it now takes 6 turns instead of 9). (half the time would mean an increase of 100% in working-speed).

Hi, Just to share my 2 cents on the war-chariot power: First I thought, this only works on lower levels, but in my current immortal game I have 2! Super-power level 8 war-chariots!! 5 attacks each! + heal on movement + easily 100%+ against units on flat ground. Man, I took out 3! Civs with...

It's so true, which makes it so much more sad... I am also a former CIV IV deity player and man, does the AI suck in war!! Countless times I have seen the AI move by barbarian encampments with their archer without even trying to fire or even walking past EMPTY encampments... Whats...

THANKS! You just made my day ;)

So basically, I cannot play the game when I am abroad with my laptop and do not have an internet connection?

LOL, this game is soo dumbed down: When finally confronted to make a choice they already tell you that one of them (archery) is invalid! :lol: Soo oversimplyfied... jeeez! :goodjob:

Sorry to interrupt ;) - What settings do you play on? Difficulty, map, speed (quick I presume?), etc. Thanks for starting a new game btw!! :)
