Honestly, this just shows you have no idea what the netherlands look like, much like northern germany it's extremely flat boring grassland, putting him there would have just been a complete waste. But whatever, just wish you'd reconsider your stance of letting nature constantly be your deciding...

I'd add that your tech path is rather relevant, pre renaissance, always academy, but if you need a clutch tech you need due to a very one dimensional civ or strategy (mongols or artillery rush for instance), just bulb, those 15 saved turns can mean the difference between getting 5 or 10...

Yeah had this before, really gamebreaking bug, when you're on the wrong end of their wrath you are screwed, or if you manage to get on their good sides you can trade all your gpt and resources for their gold pile, then DoW, and the game becomes a cakewalk. Amazing they havn't fixed this yet.

Pretty sure the main reason ducal stables are considered so strong is the 15% production bonus, which does not just apply to horse units like the normal stable. Not gonna argue with the UU though, but practically every civ has an element that is dissapointing, and perhaps it's just my playstyle...

I'd be amazed if there was anyone on this forum who hasn't been in that situation, it's just what happens if you go full out warmonger, they're not griefing, you trying to stop you from winning a dom victory.

Oasis and floodplains are nice, but non hill desert tiles are still a waste of time, and if you've got Morroco or Egypt in your game your chances of getting DF or Petra drastically decrease, not to mention that the only production tiles in deserts are the hills, if you don't have a decent amount...

Arabia -4 Aztec - 4 Inca - 16 Korea - 23 Maya - 18 Poland - 24 Arabia, great stuff but garbage start bias, camels lose upgrades and these days the AI is so on top of trading it's often times difficult to peddle all your wares. Maya, super early great scientist AND a science UB, what...
