Shogun 2 receives regular updates here. Not as frequent, massive and efficient as Civ, but its devs obviously trying to improve their game with fix patchs nevertheless. The frequent patchs are the sole reason I keep coming back to Civ, buying its (overpriced) DLCs/expansion since I'm sure...

When I said google I meant "search" in general including forum search. Didint expect it be a bug though. Thank you =)

Just got back to the game, obviously warpath is the easiest choice for a semi-newbie to Civ like me. However I cant pick between puppet and annex when conquer any city, it either s automatically puppet or annexed. There is no menu anywhere. Last time playing CivV when it released I was sure I...

play more, pay attention to the research screen and you will eventually discover it yourself ... The game needs no marine, every infantry is a marine already.

Arty wont get much xp from this "exploit" since it wont gain any xp if the city has no defense left. Archers cant do it forever either since they are in the retaliation range of the city.

IMO 8 choices for just SA and Europe is a bit much, thats why you cant cover the rest of the world in your poll.

Its cheaper, esp. if you want to venture far from your initial location. First pair of port is 3+3= 6G maint. cost (or 4, dont really remember), the 3rd port is 1.5+3 and so on ... I dont play MP and AI doesnt know how to do naval warfare, so beside ports and occasional resources, coastal...

Bland water titles are useless. The only real benefit of bulding a coastal city is ports.

Imagine this: im a commander of an arty battalion, my scouts are on the hill watching the target. I see no target, but my walkie-talkie helps me pin-point exactly where the enemy are, then .. boom! What if Im a simple archer group commander? Completely blind if the hill s high enough. In this...

Its too early to download, install and play with re-balancing mods. The game hasnt been out long enough, many player still havent grabbed the new gameplay concept of Civ V (see how many threads out there complained about being punished for reckless rapid expansion?), yet these 'balance' mods...

Its the "height" concept. Arty can fire over obstacles as long as the target is in your line of sight, while archer can only fire target in its own line of sight - no firing uphill. Correct me if Im wrong, I dont do much war at early game to be sure.

Chinese, for their never ending supply of great general +45% str bonus. Japanese, for the music theme and bushido code: fight @ full str till death! Roman with +20% production for every building already built in Rome is awesome too. For a small sum of maint. cost, your whole empire got a free...

Path finding in this game is a bit off. In my games I have to hold down the right mouse for a second until the number of turn appears when I want to move a unit. Not sure if its intentionally or not.

Archers are not going to miss in this game, its not a damn RPG. And if I remember correctly, archers cant shoot uphill, nor can they shoot over hills, so your warrior have much room to maneuver. If you let them take the high ground before the battle begins, its your own fault. The real game...

From what I saw, AI civs are all happily trade gold/GPT for strategic resource, but I myself never do so since units built from these resources will be weakened severely when the deal ends.
