    Missing leaders in multiplayer?

    Hello, thanks for the answer! You're right, I missed the rulesets completely. I used standart rules, not the expansions :'D I created a game with Gathering Storm and the leaders are there now. But when I choose the GS ruleset, it should have R&F integrated automatically, like in singleplayer...

    Missing leaders in multiplayer?

    Hello, I want to play a multiplayer session with a friend and there are leaders missing for both of us. For example Sejong, Eleanor etc. We validated game files and they are still not available. Has someone any idea how to fix this?

    What is your opener and why?

    I play on emperor, and I start with a scout (mod). I normally do this: scout > settler > builder (last two may be reversed, depending on terrain and how fast my city grows). After that, I may squeeze in a warrior before getting out another settler. In my 2nd city, I almost always go monument...

    Out of curiosity, which dark age policies do you like to use?

    Tips for beginners?

    Oof, so, I took a bit of a break :'D But once I sorted out my stuff, I'll be back for CIV4. Thank you for the useful information, it means a lot to me.

    [GS] What are Civ's dullest mechanics?

    Rockbands. I tried them once or twice, but I really can't be bothered to use them, even if I go for a culture victory. They are also annoying when other civs send them over (if I could mute them, that would be great). The endgame where you have to send spies to every city with a spaceport to...

    Tips for beginners?

    Thanks a lot to both of you! Yes, I never played it before. I just played the tutorial and started a game for a few rounds testing, and so far, at least, it seems like I'm not completely lost. I played the normal Civ 4 version but I have BTS too, so thanks for clearing that up. I gotta read into...

    Tips for beginners?

    I've played CIV 5 & 6 a lot, and now I want to try out 4. I hear it's different than 5&6, so! Do you have any tips for me, or things that are important to know?

    civ of the week overwiev?

    I was around when they started (and I loved them) but took a break shortly after. Now I've started to play again and I only have the victory-archivements left for CIVs I really couldn't bother to play because their abilities seem lame to me. I'd like to check out what ideas people in the threads...

    Please convince me to remove rainforests and marshes

    Remove (non-rice) marshes: instant increase of people living in that city and create a potential place for a farm, which can generally provide food more efficiently for your fellow citizens (if you have at least 2 farm tiles next to it). Remove rainforests - instant production bonus (of course...

    Do people actually like Eurekas/Inspirations?

    Personally, I don't mind eurekas too much but I'd like it better if they were randomized. I agree that the system certainly does not boost replayability in the sense it's being advertised, as long as eurekas are the same every game, obviously. There's a mod that randomizes eurekas but it's a bit...

    World Wonder Elimination Thread

    Alhambra - 20 Amundsen-Scott Research Station - 13 (16-3) great in theory but way too restrictive with the placing + it's so late; getting the right set-up takes time. Angkor Wat - 20 Apadana - 23 Big Ben - 23 Bolshoi Theatre - 17 Broadway - 20 Casa de Contración - 21 Colosseum - 25 Colossus -...
