    Deity Barbs

    You guys are the best. Seriously, there's a few of you that always reply to my posts with thoughtful, helpful comments. Definitely appreciated @Doshin: That's really helpful. I thought fog-busting was a line of site thing. I had no idea it busted light fog too. It's weird how long you I...

    Deity Barbs

    Thanks, Joe. Yeah, I should have mentioned that I play Pangaea. But you're saying selfing archery isn't a waste of time on Deity? I'm thinking I have time for either AH or BW before I have to decide. Then, I go archery if I have to. Does that sound about right?

    Deity Barbs

    So, I've been trying my hand at Deity this past week. Holy . How do you guys do this? I am just getting crushed out of the gate. This question (apologies in advance for the question spam I'm sure will come) is about barb defense: If I'm not boxed in, I'm getting hit with barbs by...

    Two Efficiency Questions

    Thanks, Klown. I get that but my question stems form seeing players shift working tiles off of production so as to get a max overflow whip the following turn. Is that really the best practice (again, when not whipping out of a settler/worker)? From my perspective it seems like you're...

    Two Efficiency Questions

    1) Workers: When your worker is two spaces from the tile you want improved, obviously you want to put a turn into something in between so as not to waste a worker-turn... But what if the worker is 3, 4, 5, etc. spaces away? At some point it becomes ridiculous to delay a tile improvement so as...

    Reconstruction: Tips?

    Yo, man. If you're looking to keep conquering, I'd say go: AP monestaries and temples, granary, lighthouse if coastal, barracks Then, just keep 'em pumping out military. I also go for courthouses somewhere in there if it's going to be a while until I get State Prop but I bet some of the...

    Rifling or Steel?

    Thanks for the replies. Definitely appreciated. @traius: I'm playing standard size/speed if that clears it up. And that's an interesting thought. I never really go down the flanking promotion tree but that could def be useful as far as softening up the top defenders goes. @vranasm: Just...

    I forgot to mention: I'm usually playing IMM on a pangaea.

    Rifling or Steel?

    Hey, guys! Been lurking a while but I've been wondering about this a lot lately so I decided to post... When going for domination/conquest, which path do you usually prefer to take post-cuirs? I usually go for cannons-->rifles/cavs-->infantry (if I need them). The cannons are usually...
