:bump: Always looking for interesting and potentially Civ-appropriate music, so let's give this topic one more go-through.

Industrial Monk's "Requiem" is far and away my favorite for Civ playing. What says Civ more than industrial beats with chanting, especially with Civ4's new religion system? I'd be pleasantly surprised if anyone else here has that CD. Others that go into my list (though generally not entire...

...and here is where I come back to Earth from my first Emperor XOTM victory. QSC: 10 towns, 25 pop., missing one contact and 5 required AA techs. ~3100 I make back a little ground when Literature is a monopoly tech. I finally reach MA in 290 BC. AA stats -------- 19 towns, 54...

Open, Domination Highlights 3900 BC: Seoul built 1S, 1SW of the starting location. Given the placement of the mountains to the south, I could've placed better. Blah blah blah, best information at time, blah blah blah. 2950 BC: I catch Persia with their 2nd city undefended. A...

Sounds like I ran into similar problems other non-133t players had. I was behind in tech going into the IA, with Inca as the world power and Persia leading both culture and tech. I defeated Rome in 800 AD and Zulu in 1405, but this left me without Coal, Oil and Aluminum. I also found I had...

Congrats to the winners! Finally had a competitive QSC, finished with the lowest Jason/QSC ratio of the victors. :(

I'm a bit unhappy that the opening movie continues to stutter and in-game movies occasionally freeze my computer despite up to date drivers and lowering the graphics settings. I realize my computer is on the fringe, but certainly not low quality. AMD 1800+ Athlon 512 MB PC2700 64 MB...

LOL! :sad: I wish I could claim I was going for lowest scoring conquest, but I'll take any award I can get! :lol: Congrats to the REAL winners! :goodjob:

In theory, GOTM-AI would need to predict future actions and responses by individuals and/or society as a whole and their ability to thwart his world domination plans. While it may be possible now or in the near future to harnass enough processing power for such computations, his information...

Thanks Wacken. Used ICS for culture games, but never applied it in that sense. Learn something new every day. :cool:

Hmm... I suppose they were quite corrupt until the FP went into Rome. There weren't many unused spaces and everything was properly irrigated when I got there. Are you saying to squeeze in the max number of cities possible? I would think that would increase overall corruption to a point where...

Open, Survive. I'm only a monarch/emperor level player and I've yet to win an emperor XOTM. (though I came up just short in the Aztec small map GOTM) Ancient Age I choked on the slingshot upon finding Greece in the game. I researched Philosophy and got Mapmaking free. It turned out...

:blush: Yeah... wonderful... missed in his post that he had the Lighthouse. *sigh*

Tao, how is it that you were able to ship home the horses and iron so early? I had to wait for Astronomy, while it seems like everyone was running through the french and aztecs with Knight/Cavalry.

AA spoiler: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=3117061&postcount=56 Goal: Diplomatic (space fall back) Indian War (30 AD - 330 AD) We drop 20 archers on the SW tip of India and capture Delhi and the Pyramids in 70 AD. The Colossus was also taken in Lahore. We've got all but...
