    Poland Tradition/Piety Opening (Deity)

    I dream of a piety tree with a great prophet sooner than the finisher, to allow the player to always get a religion if he want one (a the cost of putting some point in piety in early game SP) And if you add the ability for a Great prophet to settle one or two city, it could make a nice religious...

    Got strategy-blocked, need a new plan for victory...

    You need to get to reformation before finishing liberty to get sacred site. usually the IA pick sacred site even sooner than in your game. (you say it's around turn 170) You can check the religion panel before choosing a reformation SP, if all interesting choice are taken, i'll usually pass on...

    Only four cities? Really?

    well, 4 moutain city with good food put you at far more than 1000 Bpt, without couting CS science, or academy. But i agree that you will sometime be max a 1000 BPT, but it is more than enough to win a science victory without any trouble.

    Only four cities? Really?

    same here. If no coal, go modern, and be unlock ideology.

    Do you build zoos/stadiums?

    mid game, the AI got their luxury duplicate online and you can trade for them, you just need to be really on to it and check every turn, because you usually dont have many turn before one AI sell it to another AI. (in deity lux are rarely available more than 1 turn unless nobody is buying it) I...

    Fastest path to Machinery? (Diety)

    IDF assume religious no hostile IA close by. not sure it's a all around strategy. I often abuse the construction queue to save gold before war. like building 3 archer until 1 turn left, and cancel them until i need them (or 1 turn before the tech for CB.) (same for trebuchet or canon etc...)...

    Fastest path to Machinery? (Diety)

    I assume (machinery steamrolling) the purpose is military domination. I'm curious about the answer more experienced player will give, but i think maybe we need to think of a build that give us time to build unit and get money to upgrade instantaneously, or you just delay your conquest and maybe...

    Only four cities? Really?

    it's almost always possible to manage happiness for more city. just not as effective / fast in terms of winning the game. National wonder (most of them) are not just great, they're almost always the best building of that type you can build at this time. Early NC is the most commonly used, and...

    Nukes or Death Robots?

    I remember a vanilla game with GDR, the IA send tons of missile to kill them. In BnW i never see IA build a single missile. (not nuclear, just a missile) +1 and for the X-com achievment, the easiest way to get your 100 HP Xcom kill in one IA turn is to put it in the water near an enemy city.

    Scenario challenge-Deity-Scramble for Africa-Boer

    I play this scenario many time (achievement OCD this summer), and the one I win was one of the game where i got lucky enough to exploit DOW between euro civ against ethiopia / zoulou. I ended up with a good part of the pacific coast of africa. and my opponent for culture have been beaten down...

    Question to the vets: Are mining starts strictly better than plantation starts?

    Tier list without Tier. Where are the mathematicians ? :p IMO, top tier is what i'm really happy to see, middle is what you usually get, bottom tier is what i hate to see. 1 / Salt / Citrus / Marble 2 / other mining lux / Calendar lux / trapping lux / sea lux (without pearls) 3 / pearls / Lux...

    Question to the vets: Are mining starts strictly better than plantation starts?

    you just add malus to malus trying to say that plantation are not so bad and adding jungle issue. I think everybody agree that jungle start are rarely good. (even for civ with bonus for jungle tile, and even if you manage to get a jungle culture pantheon.) they are slower than any other start...

    Scenario challenge-Deity-Scramble for Africa-Boer

    I was never able to win this one without taking lot of city from the other culture IA. (sub saharian, like ethiopia and zoulou) (you wipe out zoulou ? completly ?) how the F* did you manage to get that score without conquering something ?
