    Haven't played in over a year. Should I play Civ 4 or 5?

    You ask that in CIV4 forums?:D These CIV versions are so different from each other, that many civ fanatics call civ 5 an epic fail, while the rest oppose, that huge changes in gameplay are refreshening. If You fancy civ3, civ 4 is a somewhat of similar and You should definitely like it...

    never trying for religion again.

    I have won Deity cultural with Hannibal from semi-iso. Super early city planning is a must. Capital goes for cottages, then there´s normally GA farm, which gets culture from specialists and then there is a good hybrid production city, that does pretty much everything and gets boosted with...

    Micro-managing specialists - essential or not?

    Yeah, in many cases You would say IND is an effective trait not because of wonders, but particularly for failgold.

    That's not completely true. The French have nuked the ocean, I know that for sure. Quite aggressive against Sushi inc.

    Real-Life Civilization

    Tallinn, a capitol of former barbarian state of Estonia has been conquered by Germans first, then Vikings, then Russians, then Germans again and few more times like that. Then finally got an independence after Russia liberated all barbarian cities at 1991. I know, I know... wtf... is Estonia...

    Earth 18 civs. Inca conquest?

    Soup, did You interact somehow, or what did keep Chinese so weak? In 9 games of 10 they go far ahead of everybody else at this scenario...Im very surprised that Chinese are not about to end this game by this time.

    Earth 18 civs. Inca conquest?

    One of my favourite scenarios, have played it several times. With the Incas I have had a domination at emperor (quite easy, probably could do that at Immortal too) and space at immortal (that was quite difficult). All these ways are possible: 1) conquer north America, then expand to old...

    First 50 turns

    Thats something I can completely agree with. I was just defending settler-first strategy in some cases, because no one else mentioned it. Worker first is best in most cases.

    First 50 turns

    I dont agree here. Having IMP and working on 3h tile will give You settler just with 3-5 turns longer time than first worker. Oasis example is not for building settler, it is for catching up a bit in science while growing city/building worker. Normally at high level You always need to rush...

    First 50 turns

    With IMP I sometimes go settler first. Especially when I see some strong early tiles (as oasis). You sure get some delay on worker, but having two very early cities makes that up IMHO. Basically it depends what early ressources you have. Building worker and allowing it to wait techs is...

    Banks and Marketplaces

    Maybe Im not compentent somewhere, but I personally find 1-2 early markets very useful when REXing. While I try to get a tech lead I don't like to sell key techs too early, I need specialists for fast scientists, so 1 or 2 production cities would produce money.

    Challenge-XV-10

    I think elitetroops is right. When seeing that AI and HUMAN player are the same number or turns away of something, AI reaches it first.

    Challenge-XV-10

    Im sure, Willem went legendary with last City and my spaceship would arrive at same turn.
