Excellent writeup Veneke. I was just wondering how much the railroad increased city prod, and tried it in game, and had Qs. You answered them, I love it.

I think the new changes are terrible. :mad: I studied the changelog for my needed strategy changes. Reduced my difficulty level one. Fortunately I had just finished a game when the new update was applied, and trying to start another good one. Usually I like mostly terra firma maps, I do better...

They have just patched the game again, more like major balancing changes than a patch! I liked the game better before. This game is not new, it is a year old! If you wait for any more patches, they may not come.

Well I'll check this out soon, GTK, thanx. BTW, I just edited my OP, added some technicalities about the Iroquois unit movement point expenditures within Iroquois territory. There is a minor game bug or two...

Oh? Bc I have been dragging my feet W/building longhouses in cities without 2 tree tiles, according to the in-game text there would not be much advantage. Eventually it holds back the Ironworks build (requires Longhouse in all cities). It says that it increases the forested tile production...

What do you think the best (easiest) civ is? Now I am seriously considering the Iroquois! Hey, I know, YGBK! No, I just tried them and I was very surprised. In the past I have played Egypt (most), France, Siam (twice), America (ouch), and China (1). I had read that Egypt and Siam were favorites...

Damn, when I loaded the saved game, it didn't do it again! I had a theory that since my road went through an unowned tile maybe the opponent bought the tile, although the tile was surrounded entirely by at least two tiles of my turf, and >5 tiles away from the opponent city. But alas when I...

First, let me say this bug report is NOT the notification you get when you have a road trade route and then build a harbor, nor the opposite. I had 4 cities (of ten or so) connected by road suddenly not getting trade revenue, going into red, really sucked bc I had just spent all my cash and...

I have had multiple SoundBlaster driver crashes that have hosed my drivers only after playing Civ5! Maybe this fixes these? I have to uninstall and reinstall SB drivers/software after every time this driver crash happens! Quite annoying, happens about every 10th time I run the game.

Oh, it looks like this guy nailed it: Civilization Fanatics' Forums: Advanced Map Options, what do they do? - Post #3 Smips post (same thread)

Yes, I have read other posts of this nature, coming to this consensus. It is the "plate tectonic" and erosion thing, like less mountains in older world, maybe all larger mountainous areas grouped together, not sure. But the jungle, forest, and plains areas are controlled by the climate, a...
