There, just won a Space Race in 2030, after vassalising most of my enemies and nuking that damn Lois to hell ;)

I probably need 3 GP to pull that off, so saving him could mean not getting the GE in time. In any case, a GA won't give me that much more production when i already have 150+ hammers in a city. On a completely different note, I've been Considered a Villain for quite some time now.. I...

Ah yes forgot it's name, shoulda known it was a project. Well then any good reason not to use him on the SE, in one of my high production cities? I'm taking a wild guess that I do have cities near equator...

Wow thanks, I thought I was going mad. This means the game is very winnable, yes. Once teh Internets is complete I will even get a couple of SS techs for free. Gonna research Mass Media first since it's half done already (1 turn), I have no idea where i got those beakers tho, can't remember...

I hope so... as you can see it is touch and go, I should be able to win easily given time. Oh and yeah I know the difficulty is low.. I was in doubt if I would be able to actually have a chance so I set myself down a few levels. It sure gave me a challenge either way. Any comments are...

Hey I'm playing the earth 1000ad scenario with the Aztecs of all things. Although it has been challenging I've finally surpassed the others in score, but the Space Race is on so I might lose soon, and it's less than 100 turns left now. For some obscure reason I can't build any SS components...

Hey I have problems running this mod with scenarios, especially the 1000AD scenario. These crashes to desktop while loading. Some other scenarios crashes as soon as it is done loading and the CivRev options pop up. Am I doing something wrong? The game seems to work with the rhyes earth map...

Kinda hard to see on the minimap if you really control the areas of Carthage properly. Spain seems fine.. although I'm not quite sure if the city in revolt counts, but I don't think you need more as Potrugal seems to have no cities in Spain at all.

can you always get BW before the first worker is out? Even on Marathon?

I admit I haven't tried them yet, but if obtaining the oil through trade is allowed, I suggest forcefully vassalize the nations with oil so you can demand them from it.

Well thing is I don't know if the stab screen updates so quickly. IIRC it takes a few turns before it recalculates certain values. As for the economic boost, well it's pretty much what keeps the ship afloat. I might have say +70 stab for economy, and -50 or 60 for expansion. The other...

Hmm maybe. I might lose out in the end anyway though as these lands are very productive and boost my ecconomy quite a bit (but also costs upkeep). According to that link it seems I lose stab by liberating cities, but also gain some? The document is very vague and confusing... Spain...

OK thanks for info.. too bad for me. Looks like im stuck with Bureaucracy for awhile, until I can get my stab above shaky at least. I'm constantly loosing stab on expansion, maybe because I hold too much land in europe? Southern france (holy city), italy, greece... but liberating the cities...

Hello guys, I've been playing the Arabs for awhile now after winning with Greece. Anyway, my question is about RFC special rules: I have run Bureaucracy for some time now, not realizing the stability problem it gives with the large empire (in addition to cost). I didn't want to switch when my...

Hmm interesting... Having the french revoution itself be a setting sounds tricky though, it wasn't a war it was a... revolution! The French Revolutionary Wars on the othe rhand is a very interesting setting where France the new potential superpower is beset on all sides by the inequities of the...
