Watching @Hickman888's new video on the Mali Empire I was wondering why the canonical city that spawns is Rano and not Kano, as far as I can see Kano which would be on the same tile has existed for longer and been more important for most of the history of cities in that area?

That event seems way too common at least in BTS (and DoC), to the point where if in vanilla BTS where most map types don't have a lot of peaks, I actively try to put a different improvement on a tile near a peak, even if a cottage would be optimal

There is still a lot of balancing left to be done in general at the moment if you're playing on the 1.18 development version, so this may not address the issue you're having, but in general my understanding is that Leoreth always balances the UHVs based on the Regent difficulty

Hmm maybe it results in inconsistency with the definitions of landmasses for things like UHV goals? Or maybe if the software you used to make the edit is for vanilla BTS it would cause errors given there are extra terrain types and other values (such as starting units that don't exist in...

I see what you mean, I have been trying to brainstorm but can't find a better term that isn't overly technical or a neologism of dubious meaning. The best idea I had was just calling the region the Danube Basin for the context of the UHV, since that roughly stretches from just east of the Rhine...

Watching @Hickman888's new video on the Celts I noticed that as far west as the Rhine counts as Pannonia for the settlement goal, despite there not being any use case (in English at least) for the term Pannonia describing anything further west than the far east of the Alps (or if I am completely...

So far there seem to be a few weird things going on, I had horse husbandry and was able to train the horse unit. In older versions this unit could move around normally so you could send to another city to hurry production, send a trade mission, and, if I recall correctly could also be used to...

First time in a few years playing PAE, it's one of my favourite game mods of all time. I just downloaded version 6.18 and started a game, unfortunately I get a python exception whenever I have a donkey unit and it is selected, the error messages keep popping up so even though it doesn't crash, I...

i'm so sorry but in my head this reads exactly like the following meme (adapted horribly for doc forum)

Another huge thing civ V changed is that in the earlier series there is only one core non-food, non-producton yield, and the player controls the specialisation of a civ through their own choices, which I find is a simple and elegant representation of human activity in regards to creativity...

Oh yes I see what you are suggesting. I'm not sure, do you think that would improve the gameplay? Visually that would look a bit off to me given the distance from Mecca to Sana'a should be only slightly less than the distance from Mecca to say the the bottom tip of the Sinai Peninsula/the bottom...

I like Mecca staying as a port city too, from at least the mid-600s Jeddah has existed as a dedicated port for facilitating travel and trade to and from Mecca, which is only about 50km or less from the coast if I recall correctly

just saw some of the gameplay footage from civ vii, save me dawn of civilization
