Difficulty: Deity Speed: Epic Civilization: Elohim A lot of options in this scenario, but I decided to try out the Elohim here; figured that bringing peace to the world by reducing barbs was their thing. I spawned on flatland, though the jungle was near, which I guess was better than...

Difficulty: Deity Speed: Epic The main thing to understand about this scenario is that it is all about survival (= WARRIOR SPAM :lol:). You can forget stuff like technology, attacking and building actual troops. I lost three times in a row before I understood how to play this, and in my...

That's possible, but usually the first 150-200 turns are the hardest. Not many wonders there; would you build Deruptus' Brewing House? Heron Throne?

Anyone have any good tips on how to survive on deity level the 50 turn elimination? Should one strive to get score from tech or population? Both? :rolleyes: The best obvious solution to the problem is conquest: you grab their cities and thus they lose score and you gain score. But due to...

This thread ansewered my question: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=325190 On a side note, maybe the ffh team should provide old patches and versions for compatibility problems and simply the curious? Though I guess the versions (not patches) are sort of "size intense"...

Might sound like a stupid question, but is there a place where I could get previous ffh versions? Searched for them, but did not find... maybe I'm just too tired at the moment :crazyeye:

An interesting question, but haven't tested that. Dwarves and dragons... any other race that has something spell related that could work with slavery? Hmm...

What you need: 1. One Slavery civic 2. One dragon (e.g. Eurabatres) 3. Sufficient amount of units to kill number 2. 4. Luck. What you get: A slave who can cast meteors because of his dragon race. Enjoy. :lol:

I decided to do some calculations regarding the army size. Below we see how many stacks does it take to "fill" an army consisting of 100 000 men: 1 soldier per stack -> 100 000 stacks needed 50 soldiers per stack -> 2 000 stacks needed 200 soldiers per stack -> 500 stacks needed 1 000...

Well, you have a point there, but do remember that civ4 is only a game; everything is not done in a realistic way. In game play terms, the "real" amount of people in a unit does not mean anything; it's only something that we speculate here. It could be seen like that, yes, but we would still...

I think most of the people here are a bit off. The way I see it: The "real" stack size depends upon the size of your empire. I am currently playing a game where I have over 100 million population; the capitol alone is millions. To say that this city, and the empire at large, produces...

Thanks, that cleared some things up. But on a general note such borrowing of names is not completely unproblematic. For while some names may seem to us exotic and mythological, it is not so to all. If you would see a female Moses it could be funny... Especially when the word behind the name...

I have this vague memory that in civilopedia (in game) or somewhere Luonnotar is referred as "him", and other sources talk about a group called "Luonnotar". I am asking this because as I see it the word "Luonnotar" comes from Finnish and it means a FEMALE spirit of sorts. See for example...

Hope you are right. I'll update after finishing my current game (whenever that shall happen).

Downloaded ff2 about a month ago, and according to the readme I have 0.40 version. If this has been fixed or addressed elsewhere tell me (I'm new to the forums). So here it goes: Acheron (the Dragon) is sitting in a barbarian city and with him there is a worker and some other defenders. I...
