    As I mentioned in my post, this is not in a science victory game.

    Selling Broadcast Tower turn before CN Tower

    Having just gotten back into Civ 5 with G&K and new patch, I'm getting used to selling buildings now and realized something: Broadcast Towers arrive in Modern Era with Radio, and CN Tower comes in the Information Era, so it makes sense to build Broadcast Towers well before the CN Tower comes...

    Just got Civ 5 and now I'm wondering why Pro-Civ 4 people hate it?

    Select Bombardment on the left panel (or hit "B") and then left click on the target. You also need to set up prior to firing ("S").

    can you explain me what's the point of hydro plants?

    Looking at the numbers... I have a city (not capital) with 17 base production and 35% modifier (10% workshop, 5% liberty policy, 20% golden age), so my production is 22.95. Adding a Hydro Plant would give me 11 extra hammers from the river tiles. Without golden age, but with railroad later on...

    Favorite Ancient World Wonder

    Great Library nearly doubles your science output by the time you get it, saving ~13 turns in researching (usually) Philosophy or Drama and Poetry. I use those extra turns to get The Wheel so I can throw down my Floating Gardens and Mathematics for Hanging Garden. I prefer playing on Price...

    Civ difficulty - some questions

    Saying Civ 5 is more difficult than chess because of more tiles and more units is like saying that a card game that uses two decks is more difficult than a poker game, on the basis that there's more cards and more interactions between those cards then. It's not true. We could program a computer...

    Deity Challenge 1 - Russia, Pangaea

    Very fun read! Keep us posted. Deity is too stressful for me, but I love reading about others' experience, and this is a great game so far!

    Random Useless fact about founding a Pantheon

    Not being able to found a pantheon with faith earned that turn is why I play with WHoward's Found Pantheon Button mod. There's no reason it shouldn't be like this.

    Disappearing Mods

    I've had mods deleted from my mod folder, but these were mods I subscribed to on steam. I altered them and subsequently unsubscribed from them to prevent Steam from reverting my changes, but Steam instead simply deleted the mods that I unsubscribed from. I use many of WHoward's UI enhancement...

    Essential mods?

    I use a number of mods from WHoward's Pick'N'Mix Mods site (http://www.picknmixmods.com), specifically any UI enhancement mods or information mods. I tend not to use any mods that alter the game, preferring to play with what the developers intend. Exceptions include mod that refunds % of tech...
