Don't forget nanotech oopses, rogue AI . .. And, yes, we are before the point we can seriously edit the genome for intelligence. Most people are unfortunately pretty stupid.

Cartography is your best friend for city spam :) I'm running around on guardian of nature as the svart. Thinking of researching champions, beastmasters ect. Their rangers are an 8 strength, not bad. My research is pretty good, I'm working on combining the tower of alteration with some...

I should try the economic enhancement.. :) Deity seems easier than on normal civ. The real key is to get one 'uber' unit of warriors to 80-100 xp early on - something that can take out archers, ect. Every other unit of warriors just acts as softener to boost this one up. Well and then the...

For Deity mode, any thoughts, other than play Darius. Feel free to fire strategies at me. I usually play on huge maps, and open with the great wall.

The triumverate. Darius. Napoleon. Caesar. Cities tend to auto manage if terraformed properly. Thing 1 you need for a city is food (1-2 resources). Thing 2 you need is other neat stuff to use - gold, special resources, whatever. Thing 3 you need is cottage spam. Thing 4 is mines. Build in...

One wonder. The great wall. Giggle My favorite wonder of ALL TIME.

My rule is at least 2 farms in cities like that. Maybe 3. Gold sort of makes up for cottages. I tend to overuse slavery for the 'big push'.

1, Darius. Caesar. Napoleon: The triumverate. 2. Early game is somewhat like this: ignore faith. Some one else will develop it, and you will have to switch to it to pacify them, as they will spam it all over your continent. Develop masonry. Use masonry to build the great wall. This will give...

It reminds me of wasteland of flint, one of my favorite series of all time :)

I play on immortal mode and swear by Darius (uber economy - financial/organized), or maybe Napoleon or Caesar. All three are very strong leaders with strong civilizations. I tend to run a cottage economy, and SPY SPY SPY to victory (great wall, world's most uber wonder of all time.) Admittedly ...

I will try the AI mod . Deity mode gets a bit silly - the computer has a very fierce economy, unfairly so. Without that though, I'm not sure it would be a challenge though. I blew the malachim wordspell for a horde of priests of leaves who cast tigers, and I've started clearing out junky...

I'm not getting the + to gold in deserts -seems that's gone with the new patch?

I never have really used aristocracy much. City states is just too overwhelmingly good when you get it. I love the research. I tend to run a cottage on everything except for hills and food resources economy, with the occasional farm to spread irrigation or boost population. Before city states...

I'm trying to win the game on Deity mode / huge map by using the Malachim with Decius - good alignment (he's got the raiders and organized traits). I tried with the calabim, but their lack of arquebuseers seems to be a fatal flaw. Turn 100-200 were the usual researching education spam. I...
