I would go one spot to right, to have more grassland in right below, to get fish, ramain on flood during first culture borders. You have fishing as starting tech, dont You?

If blocking is essential, the current settler standing spot is OK (as everybody agrees). However I would put city closer to caital, rice and ivory, and leave this sealng off until next city (well, I dont see whole map, probably there are reasons for doing it now) Also why is this road there...

agree, so it happens in most my games. However, sometimes its a production core - after Bronze and Iron pops out. rear is the case of plain commerce.

I swithc them on off, mostly off. on when have to calculate something upfront a bit. didnt wote for this reason. there should be on/off choice

I will check this back at home. I remember I figured once to see all the units, did some clicking or something, dont remember. Or was that my own stack?

I quess Shield comes from CIV 1. those who remember this time - the screen resolution was low, you couldnt make any symbol You like, and in game design it was more importatnt to make things symbolic and easy to tell one from another. So probably thats why its shield. or any other reason..

CIV 4 borroved ?!?!?!?!? Assuming that core personel in Civ4 still is good old SID, all the way from Civ1 and Microprose - who had a stunning number of leading strategy games, and those basically form the core concept of strategy gaming today - how can he technically borrow something? all they...

If AI was smart in general there would be no players above Noble, and the ones in Noble would calculate moves in excel spreadheet to have victory chances, not to say that less people would like the game in general. Is the AI stuped because its currently no programmable or too expensive...

got astranomy as well. grrrrr. I could reach the other continent over culture borders, others couldnt. had colossus, didnt any after. that was a negative effect.

My current one is uber nice. Y type river, 5 hills, 3foodplains, cow, rest plains and grassland. Iron showed up on plains, Copper one square out of fatcross, but already in culture. EVERYTHING (well, except floods and few grasslands) covered with forest, 3 squares radius out of fat as well 100%...

My wife hates my gaming PC and games, claims I am sick with it, she says there is no difference if I use drugs or games. she is partly right I quess. so what? the biggest part of hate comes from sound of my PC - all kind of SCSI hards and so on, quite is not a option if a dollar can be spent on...

Died as Victoria sent her macemen with crossbowmen. Alex was dead fast, I had no chance to survive that war directly, nothing to trade others for alliance. had more expansion then other who seem doing well from these posts, so I figured I was doing too much expansion early on, had to demolish...

read everything on download page, it says no posts until march5th on year 2005. minor stuff for sure, but couldnt keep myself for making this stuped post.

aaaagh, urrra! uber fatherland, here I go for battle! considering two tries I made last two days on these settings, I will finish this fast. somewhere around time AI sends his maceman.. never have done emperor, never any GOTM, nor have full picture of how all things happen in the game...

never make single one. somehow my expansion stages go so that I skip some phases to focus on others, so crossbowman are after initaial expansion but prior to knight domination. havnt got chinese game yet, they have some extras here I quess.
