Hi All DV149 I think my experience was different to other people's here. At around turn 100 I lost interest in research and infrastructure. I just built units, traders and the tasks that give you gold and faith. All was good - until I tried to get my units wet. I tried to embark in several...

I have played in 98 turns so I thought I would stop and post here. I think I'm making very hard work of it TBH. - Where did you settle your city? One tile south. The creator decreed it. - What did you research and which policies did you choose and why? - Mining, Animal Husbandry, Pottery...

This is elite play. But for an inexperienced player like me - the first builder had 2 salt and a woods tile to clear and you can sell the salt. It's difficult to convince yourself to put a builder in the water when you are a few turns from researching sailing and barb galleys... So I didn't have...

I missed you all too Leif - it's been too long. Thank you for the warm welcome :)

I'm still staff? Wow - I'm putting that on my CV.

I haven't had time to post a thread yet, but I have published the results. Perhaps Lanzelot will stop moaning about the 100K issue now. ;)

I'm sorry this is late. I have been very busy over the last couple of weeks. I'll try to get to it before the end of the week.

It's LOCAL contacts. I can't change the title of a post. :)

Culture buildings double their culture output after 1000 years.

Kuningas has also complained about needing 100K culture to win 100K culture victory on a small map. Seems than noone complains about needing 100K culture on a large map though. I have investigated this issue. The following is fact. There is no guessing involved. The conquests 'pedia...
