I appreciated your interesting and unusual opinion but I just don't see how an early and free religion makes a significant difference. My vote would be Austria but I didn't find them on the list. Buying an entire city and several units for 1500 gold (or doing a quest and a mere 500 gold!) is...

Hello, I think that the trade units in BE should "instantly" travel between cities. If BE is going to have so many trade routes at least make it easier on us. Does the one turn waiting period while swapping cities really add anything?

Yes, every particular tile needs to be worked by the city. Improvements, including the biowell, increase its yield. In the city screen you can assign your desired tiles to be worked.

BE was just copy pasta'd from CiV so it is far from pointless to compare the two.

The unit and building icons are horrible, uninformative, and just plain ugly.

lol that's a very funny and insightful post, thank you for sharing. I think BE can be patched pretty easily to fix trade routes and the difficulty. I hope so at least. I think if the AI REX'd a little more things would be a lot better.

You are da man Arioch! Thank you for, once again, satiating all of my pre-launch curiosity.

Is anyone aware of any preorder discounts for those that have yet to do so? Thanks.

Any word whether we will actually control our supremacy units as they liberate an earth map? Thanks.

What changes civ4 based on affinities (or civics?) are you talking about here, exactly?

I'm sorry for asking a potentially ignorant question, but can someone explain the idea of amassing 5k faith after the industrial era? Why is this done? How can you purchase GMs without completing the Aesthetics tree or by going full Piety? Thanks!

this is an incredible idea

I'm curious to hear how Assyria have been treating everyone. Personally I've found them difficult to really get rolling on Immortal, so I'd love to hear any success stories or tips.

Speaking of AI stupidity, is anyone else able to trade the AI 1 gpt for 30g when they are friendly? That cannot be intended and seems exploitative, in the past they traded you 22g for 1gpt which felt way more fair.

I too would love to know this!
