He probably meant Crisis Core.

Cool, thanks. I'll definitely give this style a shot. Funny, I noticed a barbarian galley off my coast, and followed it with an Immortal. Never did unload any units, at least certainly not until after it left my sight.

Yes, every answer I get helps. :) I can't access the War Academy anymore at work (damn websense!) but I will take a look later about the CxxC strategy. I'm not planning to be a warmonger for the entire game necessarily, so I'm not sure what will be best for me.

Yeah, my PSP sat in my basement for two years. I picked it up recently though, and I have to say, it isn't bad at all. Daxter and Final Fantasy Tactics are both very solid games, and MLB 08: The Show is fantastic. Certainly not as good as its console counterpart, but that isn't the point...

While I'm thinking of it, one more question... If I already have a luxury linked to my empire (say furs), if I find another source of furs will it also make one citizen happy in each linked city? Of course I can trade said luxury if not, but I am curious how it works with happiness when you...

Hmm... can you guys use my save if I am not playing with the Conquests expansion. As for OCP, I didn't go for a perfect setup - I think there is a bit of overlap so that I could get in good positions given the proximity of the coast and available resources. What's going to happen with the...

Thanks. :) I am learning a ton from you guys and I know I have a lot of room to grow. I'll try to post my save/pics tonight after I play a bit more.

I had some breakthroughs in my understanding of the game last night. Here is a summary of my game... I started off by wasting a good 5 minutes starting and restarting new games, looking for a cattle/river opening. Finally gave up, realizing that I'm still just learning the game and I don't...

Definitely check out Ision's civ reviews: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=87014 However, if you search around a bit, I think you'll find that the general feeling is that there is no best civ. I have only been playing the game for about two weeks, but in my experience, it...

Thanks to everyone for the continued advice in this thread. I am learning a bit more each day... finally figured out how to get access to Iron and take care of a few of my neighbors with swordsmen. :cool: The biggest issue I am having is understanding the best way to keep my citizens happy...

I can see why a DS version makes more sense with the touch-screen commands, but why is there no PSP version being made?

Ah, gotcha. Thanks.

I think I have Civ 3 Gold or something to that effect, and since I have not seen anything about Agricultural/Seafaring in-game I don't have the expansions. Or maybe I do and I just didn't notice. :lol: Are some of the traits pre-expansion better?

I am still a newbie at this game, but I wanted to share my experience regarding civ traits and see what other people have had success with. My style so far is to expand quickly, fight some early wars to gain control of land around my capital so that I can build a nice empire. I find that...

Thanks for the info. What are the military units that don't benefit from a barracks? Artillery? While we are on the subject of corruption, I have a question regarding the Commercial trait. I know that it reduces the gpt loss in each city, and more-so the further are from the capital/FP...
