    January 2024 Challenge Robot Revolution DISCUSSION THREAD

    Diety would likely make a high score game easier, more money to take, more cities, barbs would be taken care of by the AI. The fun of this challenge is its you vs the barbs, which isn't really impacted by difficulty. Congrats @Nares I don't have the interest to play again and optimize play...

    stay near the coast with your settler, expanding north was definitely more difficult than south as there was a camp I couldn't deal with for a very long time. Tip, biplanes can kill the Barba in the camp and naturalists can destroy the camp. Naturalists are also great to explore and distract...

    Feel free to follow my directions, you will know within 10 turns if it works ok, I am back home, here is a screenshot with 20 turns remaining, turn 2 I built Victoria (encampment south west (was a barb camp)) then Halifax, and Hamilton (futher SW). Barbs never came close to Ottawa (although a...

    I didn't say the GDR's didn't pillage my districts, I said they didn't pillage my aerodrome. it was in the heart of my empire protected.

    I'm playing the official Emperor, not the modded diety version, the GDR's have some sort of custom script and in both games didn't pillage my aerodrome (even if they did, it's one turn to build a new one or repair it), not sure if that was luck, or scripting, they also didn't really attack my...

    I disagree, getting two biplanes was the best thing I did. Hitting for 18 damage vs 4-6 from cities/ ranged meant I could spam settlers much quicker. I should have gotten more biplanes, any other unit is pretty useless save mounties for parks. Jet fighters rip up GDRs, unfortunately I got...

    January 2024 Challenge Robot Revolution DISCUSSION THREAD

    1st attempt I finished Emperor at 1296 pts. knowing the map and special features I wouldn't be surprised to see someone hitting 2000+. My main holdups were the AI getting decimated, which resulted in a slow first age, and taking too long to get Aluminium update, Ran the scenario again, even...

    [GS] Seven Seas - Dec 2023 challenge DISCUSSION THREAD

    I played the emporer scenario and breezed to an pretty easy religious victory. I took the government building for faith purchase military units... didn't matter, only bought one unit the whole game to deal with some pesky barbs. I liked the game, was a good change from what i was used to...

    How do new citizens work ?

    Seems you are right, I must have Civ 5 on mind. I'll retract my comment above. testing done on the Age of Abundance map Exhibit 1. all tiles locked, Food focus, original production is 9.4 (9+0.4amenities), starting 74 production. Keeping food focus, next turn 83 production (city uses the new...

    How do new citizens work ?

    Food is calculated first Then population grows or shrinks. Then the new citizen is assigned a tile Then yields are calculated (except food) If you have food focused city, you could be wasting yields on the first turn since you wont gain the extra food for that tile. Apologies, seems this was...

    Age of Abundance Discussion Thread

    That's what I was thinking, I'll need to load the game and see for sure what upgrades I had. I was sure it was fabricate scandal +2 levels. Annoying you need to finish the game in one sitting if you want to keep your mods running. If anyone knows how to add ui mods back when loading I'm all ears!

    The vanila ruleset definatly threw me off. I rushed religion starting turn 2, took aurora and squeezed 3 cities in the tundra immediately while waiting for my latheon and planning for work ethic. Got my religion work ethic is available, awesome. Provides a % per citizen, not based flat rate...

    Is there any way to disable auto-advance?

    I suspect this is your issue. If your mouse is registering phantom clicks, it makes sense your units would be queued for their next turn. Try this, attack with a unit without killing the enemy, then right click again before auto cycle moves you to your next unit, you will see the same...

    [NFP] (User Error) Navigation School always provides 8 science

    You're right, the Terrain bonus is where the bonus appears. What was throwing me off is I am suzerain of 2 scientific city states (bringing 4 to 8 and later 10 science). I don't remember the city state bonus appearing on the building itself. Maybe it's one of the mods I'm running. Case Closed
