I have to in mid-late game as the noise of information is insane with developed cities.

Not only is there less strategic depth, it's not even FUN. I hate how long it takes to position units for a city siege. I don't even gain any advantage strategically either - I have to do it because it's the ONLY way to siege the city with that many units! Why didn't they realize this made...

Totally agree: "No one considered the ridiculous traffic jams and chokepoints and tactical puzzles involving the simple act of getting a swordsman next to the thing it wants to attack. No one realized how baldly it would highlight wretched AI. No one anticipated all the cheese tactics based on...

I like it because I feel it took some of the best features from civ 4 and 5 and made a pretty smooth synthesis over all. But production seems broken (as mentioned a lot on the forums), UI sucks (obvs), diplomacy is not great, but not bad. I would assume in 2 solid future releases/DLC it'll be...

After capturing a city, I was looking through it's details on the left pane and I saw nothing indicating what culture or any stats relating to its being formerly japan's and now mine. Does anyone know where these kinds of stats are hidden?

This is a massive inconvenience, and then there's the fact that warmonger penalties are not listed anywhere. Even declaration of war entry just talks about it in general terms... hmph.

I also thought a formal war declaration had much lighter penalties.

I just don't see the value other than having a place to make naval units. Agreed what was said above about the tile inbalance, although I have seen the odd spot with a billion whales.

yeah there's civic cards and tech stuff that allow diplomatic options, most obvious being open borders.

There are civics and conditions that allow you to get around the warmonger accusation. You can always just irritate a civ with various means in the hopes of getting them to DoW first.

King is making me sweat a little, more because I am constantly swatting barbarian horseman and mounted archers. I also constantly need to raid the barb settlements that pop up in explored territory and it's so hard to take out their scouts that found them... So I'm trying to gear up as japan...

hmm I recaptured one no issues last night

Ok, well I've setup civ 6 exe to run as administrator, so although my previous saves are toast, my new ones actually load now. Hopefully that helps someone.

as someone who has played hundreds of hours of civ 4 I'm surprised I don't miss the queue - but one thing I'm loving that probably absolves its absence is that civ 6 throws you more curveballs than I remember in 4 or 5 - thus I would be doing a lot of reorganizing of the queue anyway.

Ah quick update: I set the civ exe to permanently run in administrator mode and now my game seems to load and save correctly, albeit only tested from the first turn.
