what really drives me nuts is them sending their units 12 tiles away when evenly matched with a neighbor, only to be sneak attacked by the AI. Like, wtf dude, you got 7 swords just roaming the ocean while a band of warriors walks right past you.

The simple matter is the idea of building warriors or whatever to conquer someone after they use their hammers on a wonder is a balance issue. I think the unique passive needs to be only given to the builder. This stops people from blindly targeting cities building wonders because all they...

"This sand is so nourishing! My citizens not only survive on a diet exclusively sand, but they also gain so much faith. (Probably because it is a miracle you can live off a sand diet in the first place.) My workers are obsessed with their pay rates. They care so much, everytime I tell them to...

Here is an interesting buff City centers on cliffs over coasts act as a mine upgrade and increase with all mine techs. The reason? Almost every city built on a cliff has easier access to underground nodes for mining and exploitation, seeing as how a huge area is basically exposed for hundreds...

No one in ancient times built on the coast unless their kingdom was prone to invasion. Building on the coast, made spotting raiders much easier and gave you a natural advantage of the highlands and not allowing the enemy to enter your country in multiple paths. This was THE ONLY coastal...

I just wrecked a game as samurai. The strategy is to go hard science as hojo. He actually is a god at science. You should block off expansion on your nearby civs so they have to go thru you. If you can, they will DOW you but you will win if you built right. While they mindleslly throw bodies at...

Ever seen sanded anything? Makes it much more productive, no matter what it is. Sand sharpened blades, exposed stone and salt, blah blah Sand storms move things around and sometimes they reveal resources that you would normally not notice.

I think walls should not be nerfed. I THINK MOUNTAINS NEED A NEW MECHANIC The mechanic would be that units can walk into a mountain tile but cannot pass through unless a tunnel is built. What this functionally does is allow siege units to take the highground, which is something they have...

I have a 0 resource start on the desert as Mali but I can't help but want to keep it because of the wonder next to me and the hills. Like freaking 8 of them. If i get petra, this city is gonna be LIT

The Incas dominate science due to their strong agency points due to mountains, which is extremely important for getting to the mid game early, ROFLstomping anyone who has a strong renaissance, or above, taking all their hard earned districts, and going harder and harder. They are also strong at...

I could have sworn this thread was about unpopular opinions and the whole concept was to not refute or argue with them. You must have gotten triggered pretty extensively here. You are like the third out of like 200 comments to straight up go to blows with an OP.

I am a little angered that a macedonian bedwench that ruled over a country AFTER it had fallen was chosen as the leader of a civilization with such great world wonders. It is amazing how stupid this decision was. God forbid they put some melanin is Egypt, considering their direct neighbors and...

In addition to their passive which is not that strong at all and extremely situational, they should get 50% of the combat strength of enemies killed as faith. Why? Because their entire culture thrives off this concept. Norsemen believed 100% that everything they do is because Odin demands it...

I like this response.

1000 years later, she ruled a PROVINCE OF ROME CALLED EGYPT. It was not an empire or civ. It was a province.
