That did it Browd, thanks! I have seen enhanced user interface, and they weren't using it, thanks though jlim!

In watching a few videos of other players (made in the last few weeks, and also several years older) I noticed that when they mouse over an enemy unit, it displays the number of hp the unit has left. I also noticed when they mouse over a tile, it says who owns the tile. Additionally mousing...

I've been pretty okay at defending sea trade routes on Pangeas (I am virtually always at war myself) and by settling a city away from the action I can usually have a pretty safe food cargo ship (or two) to my cap which is just much better than land caravans. I find a couple range units are...

Enjoying the series so far. Cringed hard when you moved the initial settler, salt river, hill, coast, what more could you ask for :lol: Oh yeah the nice mountain second city to the west would have been nice too. Understand how the marble is tempting though though the dyes were a serious...

If you insist on automating workers, use the emphasize commerce/food/hammers buttons to guide what improvements they build for each city, otherwise they are god awful.

I wouldn't mind a city if you didn't get me already :p I started posting around the middle of the classic RPC cities and temporarily force quit CIV for the first few months of the Next Generation ones so your list probably missed me (though I was Cyrus in the Genghis Earth 18 game). Anyway it's...

Agreed, back on topic: Regarding Espionage, Ai's don't really spend on you if you don't spend on them(generally), it is often a good idea to focus your espionage early in the game so you have points to revolt a city in a later war or to steal a tech or two, to see someone's graphs focus espy...

I manually manage gp farms, capital (to an extent) other cities I use the emphasize buttons on the governor, looking back on my post it looks kinda :):):):):):):)ish and vague I fully agree. and @ Vicawoo I don't automate workers until everything is improved as I want it, and even then only...

Here is a thread from about a year ago when I was starting to get immortal and posted for some help and there are sgs in my sig if you doubt that I know what I am talking about, I know I haven't posted anything regarding deity, so feel free to take that with a grain of salt, but I had about a...

Micro is really not that important, I can play an immortal game in 2-3 hours and look in a cities screen maybe 10 times total. Macro decisions are what are really important. Early game FARMS, maybe cottage a capital or if there are nutso amounts of land, but farms allow for great production...

Agreed Sid takes no prisoners

I'm liking industrious more for wonder failure gold recently

Drafting protective rifles or muskets is decent as the free drill 1 is nice, if protective I will probably promote nonupgraded early gunpowder units along drill so that I can move faster (they take less damage) and I only have to worry about cannons

If I have the AP religion in my cities I will put up temples and monasteries basically everywhere for the free hammers, if I don't have the AP religion I may put one in a hammer city to spread the religion I am in if someone hasn't done that for me or if I have a SSC I may build one or more...

don't really need stock exchanges except if you're rush buying which I wouldn't recommend because these cities are relatively new and cottages would take awhile vs immediate reward of workshops + SP, I would seriously consider spamming cities all across the Americas now that you are under SP as...
