Just wanted to say thanks for the work of setting this up. I'm going into the industrial era and can see where the game is headed. To lazy to finish :) Sumeria sent a settler guarded by only an archer early. So, we were able to grab that and encourage Zululand to help fight Sumeria. Ended...

Assuming you are in the early game and doing the standard slinger-archer upgrade and rush, keeping enemy cities is too annoying to bother, IMO. If you attack the enemy capital last and raze the other cities first, all you need to do is build settler replacements. There is usually nothing in...

Probably a good reason but I thought I should say that the game save is not available yet. Not sure when since the thread should like it should be up.

Just wanted to say thanks for setting up the game. Carthage moved to a central location, built a ring of cities around the capital at all locations "5", mowed down the Romans who were squeezed into the north end, and then ran away with tech and units on this lower level. Also cleared out...

Thanks NZ. Advice worked fine. I was able to start the game file with no problem. (However, I had to exit immediately :) Will enjoy playing this.

Just thought I would mention that I use Steam to play Civ IV. After updating buffy on my new lap top I was unable to load the save file. Also, there is a message when I play the mod buffy that the results will not be accepted for GOTM or Hall of Fame. Not sure what to do. If I could get...

Thanks for the game. There is some evidence learning took place but I made several dumb mistakes. Not going to finish this one. Keep 'em coming!

Just loaded BtS onto new PC. Buffy mod runs fine. But the game of the month won't load. I've worked with the posted fixes, but nothing seems to get the job done. Are there any recent ideas? Thanks Russ

Puttered through the game this afternoon since it was raining and freezing on outside. Not a very good score, ending in 1918 I believe. When you don't micro manage, you get what you deserve. Spying doesn't help much on this low difficulty level. AI has nothing to steal. Likewise, AI has...

Thanks for the game. It's going to slip into the 1900s. So, I'm not going to finish. Interesting how the lack of CS slowed me down.

I believe we all will agree that VI has to be fixed to make human players fill up the tech and civics trees, rather than beelining, and to make the AI able to compete. I've only played three games, but they were pretty lame affairs. Hope for the best :)

Felt a little lost but it was more fun than the formula which civ 5 has become. - How many cities did you settle or capture? Think it was 5 settled, one captured, a couple razed. - What did you prioritize for research and policies? Early on I prioritized whatever was boosted. Later bee...

I think the science victory is a good starting spot. Culture and religion seem to work very differently in civ 6. And domination focuses on the early game when we need to learn about the "whole thing." I'd like to play a few vanilla games, just to get the feel of it, before trying for the...

Doesn't really matter. I'm currently in the "wandering around the tech tree" stage anyway. If I keep good records, I can help everyone know what not to do.
