Why would this be? I flipped Hungary's city to free, but its not converting to me?

Lately I've been playing Pingala first it just turbo charges the early game sooo much to counteract the diety AI boost, get either culture or science depending on what you need, and GP points if you're shooting for an early prophet or scientist. Just don't get too dependent on him otherwise it...

Still not fixed as of the shuffle update.

Didn't work for me but maybe I was doing it wrong.

+1 just came here to report that precise issue. I have 1 turn to research Recorded History that would have given me a diplo card too, but as it is I'm stuck and have to discard game.

Still hitting this - is the workaround to get your city re-converted to your religion? What about reloading the game?

i looked, and even though I was down all those cultists I only had 1 singer relic, and tons of obelisks and temples were empty.

I did a runthrough over the weekend with Russia/Work Ethic/Voidsingers, and I completely ran through the game on Diety. Would have finished my culture victory a few turns earlier, but I didn't realize a little bug with Cultists. When they die, they send their relic to the nearest city's Old...

For Alexander, I focus on Heteroi. They are fast and get you GG and upgrade to knights. You have the start right, you want to get the UB early. I typically get it in capital as I am starting Horseback Riding, and so I slot in Agog and build archers/warriors until HB Riding is in. Slot in...

Let other nations build districts. Take their cities. When you run short of funds because you haven't hit political philosophy yet for 2 military cards, build culture so you get there faster. Other than that its just culture, science like any other nation. But really you need not build...

William the Bruce, I guess. I don't have the game open and did the report from memory - I have no commercial districts at this point, so it feels like I'm lagging. I did get 800 gold from the failed Emergency after I took Cairo, so thats what I'll use to update units.

I'm lagging a little. I'm really regretting taking God of the Forge over Harvest. I'd have filled out my territory much better. I settled second city South next to the Horses, where I could get plenty of early ziggurat culture. Other than that built WarCarts and eventually found Arabia...

yes. Its often the best place to settle especially very early where things like a +2 culture/+2 faith desert tile adjacent to an oasis with the same bonus can be very good. Or in the +3 science +3 tile from 4-tile mountain wonder. Or the 5 food 2 culture in the tundra tile.

City with both CH and HD, CH next to river, harbor, and city center is +5 base, +10 with Reyna. Harbor with 2 coastal resources, next to harbor and city center is another +5/+10 with Reyna. Thats 20 science with Reyna and one promotion in a Medieval Golden Age Free Inquiry. Add an...

Medieval golden free inquiry is another game breaker if you are able to get even one good harbor/CH location with Reyna. If you can get to the 100% CH or 100% harbor card the amount of science you can pull in with one city is amazing. And this doesn't require Harvest to exploit.
