I have laid out, and stand by, areas where I disagree with your positions in my two most recent posts. Your stance here is akin to a doctor diagnosing a patient whilst sitting in another room with a textbook and confirms my suspicions that you actually lack practical experience of how my...

Apologies if I'm wrong C0rTeZ48 but it seems extremely likely you haven't played my modified settings and are therefore not basing conclusions on actual played experience. Tweaking Civ is in part so difficult because what looks certain on paper to be a positive change can have unexpected...

Thanks for the feedback. I would point out that of my listed objectives of the changes "balancing the game" isn't really one of them. I'm not one of those people that thinks it is essential for every option to be equally valuable, more that I think changes are required when an option isn't...

Workers seem to go a bit haywire later in the game. When I automate mine they are desperate to buikd railroad and remove pollution in other Civs territories? Why not reload the turn with the photo and curb your aggression? Maybe he had a premonition and was building his own crypt

No, not Flintlock. My aim is go ger bored with simple editor changes, then try Flintlock, then try full blown mods. The game should last me another 30 years that way. :D Hard to tell, but I think MAs are far more Battle Royale inducing than MPPs. With an early MPP and no MAs the game feels much...

v3.1 - reverted Fascism unit support to 3/4/5 and Communism to 6/6/6 following unexpected consequences.

1954 AD - we have a space race victory!!! :D:D:D But not for me. I had forgotten that although the AI can struggle with prioritising the Apollo Programme, once they have built it they do tend to ruthlessly pursue Space Station components even when at war (which is a good thing). I attacked...

1876 AD - I luckily got my snowball timed well. England only got TOW Infantry in their last city against me, by which time it was too late. Following her fall I then expanded my war to two fronts against the ridiculously backwards Americans and Aztecs and make light work against their pikemen...

Absolutely. Its another indication of what I said recently about the left hand not knowing what the right hand was doing (coding).

What strange discrepancies. I am struggling to think why you'd go to the effort of coding two different calculations.

Apologies if this is well known. I'm in the Modern Era and met everyone ages ago. Two contradictory screenshots about my population and world area on the same turn. First one puts me first, second one puts me, er, second. Pleaz iggnoar me being 20th out of 22 for lyteracy!

In my current game myself and the Aztecs were fighting the English and I am Religious. I capture an English city and instead of fighting the English the Aztecs focus on pillaging every tile inside my Big Fat Cross, but outside of my cultural boundary (but inside England's remaining cultural...

1782 AD - I'm a couple of turns away from amassing around 30 tanks on the German border. I've just stupidly realised I had toggled the domination win condition to 30% land and population for a game on a small map and forgot to revert to 20%. This gives me breathing room with the AI, but as...

Cultural boundaries can be invaluable in maintaining a link between different parts of your empire rather than having to cross another AIs territory. I also like ensuring my borders expand quickly as it can be the difference between the AI signposting their intent to attack you by invading (and...

I learnt a MPP against you at end of turn can result in a declaration of war against you before your next turn even starts (i.e. before you can even move a unit or attack anyone) even if military alliances are disabled. Admittedly I had units in someone elses territory, but give a guy a chance...
