If you manage to get someone to spread this belief to you when playing as Kongo, it increases your relic faith by far more than the triple it claims. A palace full of 5 relics results in 1452 faith per turn. Without the belief it is the expected 20 for 5 relics with 4 faith. In the attached...

Yes, both settler and religious automatic lenses are very annoying.

Would locking the cost down like this still increase the district cost for other cities? If so it's not that bad of an oversight.

It's almost impossible to say if someone's experiencing a bug or if it's just a misunderstanding if you don't post screenshots, a save or a video of the problem in question.

Yes, to the point where I just restart if I get it near my cap.

It's sometimes useful to convert a city of yours if the enemy religion has one or more faith buildings to buy. If you convert cities that are deep within your religious pressure zone, you'll be able to quickly buy the faith building(s) and then let it convert back to your own religion. Or...

It depends a lot on what the overall land looks like. If the only production you see are two hills, it is often smarter to purposely not settle on top of them, to squeeze more overall production, as counter intuitive as that may sound. On the other hand, if you have enough production available...

Are you perhaps using mods?

vampireboot, was ICS such a huge strategy in G&K? No it wasn't, it wasn't even popular in the last vanilla patch.

These ones are old, check in game to see how they work in the latest patch.

Pretty much all the Order tenets are useful for every vc, other than the tourism tenets for non culture victories. Or would you not take the free scientist and engineer in tier 3 for every VC, or the 50% extra food and production from trade routes?

I don't think Tradition vs Liberty is that much of a problem. I find it's more the other stuff related to Wide vs Tall that annoy me. This includes the science limiter, culture limiter, early happiness nerf got in BNW (one honor happiness policy removed, rationalism happiness removed, religion...
