    Succession game - The glorious Persians

    Great the world is annoyed with us and I get to take over? Hopefully after the reign of Malys II, the second coming of terror there will still be a Persian! :) Edit >>> Why did you go per turn gold agreements with the Germans and then attack them? Doesn't this kill our rep?

    Succession game - The glorious Persians

    Well, we did crush Babylon and they are part of our culture group. At this point of the game it looks like we are heading either towards a Diplomatic, Space Ship, or Cultural victory rather than trying to go for domination...so leaving the Zulus is a good decision, our empire is large enough to...

    Succession game - The glorious Persians

    Yeah, Germany demanded our map and some gold about 4 turns into the war with Babylon, I felt that it was better to risk giving it to him than to risk having a two-front war. I generally am not bothered by nations building cities around me, I usually either take them by force or by culture in...

    Succession game - The glorious Persians

    After 380 years of war, the reign of Malys the Terrible has come to and end. The people of Persian rejoice, as his rule was filled with hardship and many whip-cracks forcing them to complete Immortals, Temples, and Libraries to further the ruthless aims of their leader and his desire for...

    For all the complaining about bugs/missed features.

    Heh, you make me chuckle. See thats the whole point...moving away from realism reduces the fun for me. If you want to play a real-world simulating game that doesn't stick close to the real world more power to you I guess, but myself I'd rather play a real-world simulating game that sticks...

    Ok, what is the deal with combat resolution

    Ok I will bring up a weird point, which doesn't involve any strangeness from the Tank vs. Spearman aspect of the combat generator. I always explore with warriors, and often pop a hut and out come 2~3 barbarian conscript warriors. Of the numerous times this has occured I see one of two...

    Saved game (how to delete them)

    Yeah, goto the directory where you installed CIV. There should be a subdirectory below it called SAVE or SAVED (I forget which)...you'll see all of your saved games there, they will be easily recognizable because the name of the saved game is the name of the file...hope this helps Fais

    Combat results and slow navies. Conceptually.

    Its still rather ridiculous to think a group of Iron clad ships (much less wooden ships) could have any serious effect on a battleship 'fleet'. For sake of argument any supply ship attached to a battle ship group would be able to outmaneuver, outspeed, and have a well more armored hull than the...

    For all the complaining about bugs/missed features.

    Kimi you probably know this, but just because you've looked at your driver information and you've seen that you don't have any conflicts this doesn't mean that you are scott free on it being a driver issue. Make sure you download and update your latest driver files for sound & video at a...

    don't armies just kind of Stink?

    Depends on what you are putting into an army. If you are loading it up just with horsemen, it is a waste, as horsemen already withdraw from combat when injured and function better when pillaging. However an army of defensive units basically means your stack (the army and the other...

    Succession game - The glorious Persians

    Hello my fellow Despots, pleasure to meet you. I believe I am next up in this menagerie after bouncing a few emails back and forth with Lkendter, I'll try to do us proud. Since it seems the Babylonians must die, then die they must. I will try to get enough troops massed near the border so...

    3 questions

    1) It is generally hard to tell if the AIs are duking it out unless you see the fights or a city is destroyed or taken over. They probably were fighting, but the AI also seems to have an idea of where to attack...perhaps they were fencing with troop positions the entire time and never actually...
