    Best Tech?

    Communism- State Property, leads to infinite city sprawl, demonstrated by Sullla here in an RBCiv variant where each player could choose a starting tech of their choice. Another strong choice would be Fiber Optics, granting the Internet (or does Computers grant that) sorting out your technology...

    Poll: Leader for AP Gauntlet II

    I'm aware of your fondness for Washington so why not show us all your abilities playing as your most fortuitous leader?

    AP Guantlet I: Isabella

    Forgive me for not having a complete knowledge of the Apostolic Palace, I did not know that a state religion was required for its construction, I have yet to purchase Beyond The Sword. This is also the reason I cannot look at the save. You state you are gearing up for war, I would guess it to...

    AP Guantlet I: Isabella

    Well played, though was it the best move to immediately switch into Christianity upon reception, you now have five possible enemies due to the heathen religion factor? If you wish to go into more detail, descriptions of city sites, technology paths and trades, including the reasons for them...

    Playing the Traits series.

    I've been reading this thread with interest and rest assured CivCorpse, there are others that are intrigued by this thread, just not posting. :P

    Industrious v/s Philosophical

    Founding so many religions early game is unnecessary and will only slow you down. The early game is the most important time and investing so many of your initial beakers into religions is a waste and will cost you greatly on the higher difficulties (although it is unlikely one will even get a...

    DMOC's Immortal Game #1 - Playing as Darius I

    You have a vast amount of territory under your control. Once the remainder of your continent is settled and brought up to speed, your research will increase massively and hopefully allow you to narrow the tech gap. Do you plan on wiping out Elizabeth? You should consider when to do so. The...

    There is something broken with this leader

    In an ongoing game, I have used Quechas to take out three of the four opponents on my continent. I have four capitals by 500 BC, though it is only on Prince. I've already won.

    If you could start out with any (except Ind/Phil) trait and tech combo...?

    How about Fiber Optics. Build the Internet and you're sorted for technology for the rest of the game. The second, how about Communism. State Property means no distance maintenance, I smell city spam. Traits for this, Financial and Organised are not needed, there is no need to research anything...

    Describe yourself - in Civ4 Leader Traits

    Philosophical- I'm often lost in my thoughts, be it about the girl next door or pondering the human nature. Charismatic- I'm often the soul and spirit of a group of people, cracking silly jokes, having fun, whatever. :P

    Which wonders given the resource will you always go for?

    Stonehenge, The Great Library, the Statue of Liberty.

    Which leader would you choose?

    Mehmed is an extraordinarily flexible leader who can lend himself to many strategies. Zara seems good, but I haven't got Beyond the Sword.

    Suggestion to improve 'Imperialistic' trait

    I would give Imperialistic civs an additional trade route to simulate the rule that was held over other civilisations/nations.

    A comprehensive UU guide (the updated thread)

    I'm fairly sure the Panzer gets a 50% bonus against Armour. 50% x 28 Strength= 42 Strength! :eek: That means a Panzer is better against armour than Modern Armour, which comes several techs later! Unless the bonus takes away the strength of Modern Armour: 50% of 40= 20 Strength...
