Hi Hunter,
What does seed 18471 mean? Is it the same as "preserving random seed?"
I have never tried putting any number in the seed box and always leave it at 0.
As I struggle to master C3C, there are so many rules, nuances and tricks to remember that after a while I feel like just giving up (before I begin another game with great hopes, that is :) )
At times like this I wonder if Sid Meier himself would always win at Deity or Sid levels. I'm only at...
With most cities, when I kill the last defendant the mil advisor asks me if I want to install a new governor. But with some, the city is razed by itself and I'm left standing on a pile of rubble.
It's particularly frustrating when the city is close to a resource/lux and the whole idea was to...
Also, since the most advanced civ is always a few techs ahead of me, by the time I build cavs they's got infantries and guerillas. So it's still hard to take them on. Numbers might be the answer though since cavs have decent combat stats against these units.
I tried another strategy once on a...
I earlier posted for advice on domination a couple of weeks ago. I was told to choose tiny or small pangea with 80% water. This also meant a lot fewer civs to play against. Some folks also set which specific civs they want.
I have won a game or two with those settings. But I'm wondering how...
I had my first diplomatic loss playing chieftain. It was my second or third game and I had no clue about how things worked.
I was kicking a** all around as Indians. I triggered my GA, built all wonders, and was generally feeling good with myself - you get the picture. I entered modern age and...
Oh, and another thing. When negotiating with other civs, you know how the "Prepare for war" message is right above "I'm all done"? More than once, I clicked on the war message by mistake when I concluded my deal. You can guess the results!
It's less than six months since I first laid my eyes on CivIII in a used books/CD store (yes, that's where I bought my first game) but it already feels like years. In the meantime, I have come close to separating from my fiancee because I stay up late nights (sometimes the whole night!) playing...
Thanks for the tips. I played Persia on a tiny, 80% pangea. I got Mayas, Koreans and Aztecs as neighbors. I went a little slow and was able to achieve domination by ~ 1520 AD. As a result, the score was somewhat lower than I would have liked (~2900). But I'm going to try again, maybe with a...
Great - thanks!
I just read Ision's article on Persians. Seems like a good civ to play with. The only weakness I can think of is govt flips would take forever. But you're probably suggesting I'd never need to change govt since I need to target an AA or MA victory.
I also saw an article on...
I have tried everything and nothing works! I'm really craving to DOMINATE the world for once.
I thought instead of some general advice in a vacuum, I'd ask folks for some specifics. What do you think my initial settings should be? Please fill in the blanks -
Civ = Babs, Celts, Incas, ...
