    Do you cheat? How?

    I usually find my favorite unit and give it a bunch of promotions it would normally never get... Or, I change the race of the unit to make the art look cooler... It's always fun to have a 4+ movement marksman who can shoot down champions and longbowmen from 3 to 4 squares away...

    FFH 2 and Civ 5

    They'd have to change the "one unit per tile" thing. Otherwise, assassins would suck... And, how could the archmages summon anything?

    Aah, that explains it. Don't have patch K yet... And i'm using FF...

    Who here has killed acheron lately?

    I don't mean to sound ignorant, but what are "Sons of the Inferno?"

    024 and Grigori

    Is is just me, or do the AI's not know how to use their adventurers? Every time I have the Grigori in a game, they end up being wiped out by the lizardmen or something in the first 150 turns.

    Do I need a new computer?

    Something I also noticed was that the game crashed earlier and more often when Hyborem came in - most likely because of all the burning sands animations. I'm glad they changed that in Orbis...

    Do I need a new computer?

    I usually use final five for my games - I usually do well in the beginning and then fall back a bit in the end - but with the starting at 7000 and going up...it's kind of dumb. Takes all the fun out of trying to be better than everyone else every 50 turns. They should really fix that. And as...

    Why are War Elephants weaker than wild Elephants?

    In fall further, the animal units gain strength the longer they remain uncaptured. As long as you wait a while to capture your elephant, you can have it have 13-15 strength... which is a disincentive to capture it for early conquest. Hmmm....

    i built the mercurian gate and basium didnt show up

    I've never played with 35 players... sounds like fun...and it would probably be hard to get a humongous empire... I really want to try it out, now...

    On the upside, at least you have the benefits from the -20% war :mad:

    For the Horde?

    I noticed something really weird about this worldspell. When it was cast, the units with the "for the horde" promotion seemed to be hidden nationality. They were able to attack Ljosalfar warriors, workers, etc. without declaring war on them. Really weird, if you ask me.

    Turn 150 - Your game is crap

    When I've seen the Hippus in games, they either really pwn or really suck. In one game, they bankrupted themselves near the start. It was pretty sad. However, in another, their empire got so big that they surpassed my "slow and steady wins the race" strategy. If you can hold on to a large...
