I've been playing immortal difficulty for about a month now, and I've only won about 3 games out of maybe 7 or 8. That, however, was before I patched my game to the latest version, and discovered that making money was far more difficult than before... The previous version I played on also...

Occasionally, when my fighters intercept nearby attack aircraft, they aren't visible, and the bombed unit and my fighters constantly spin around shooting at absolutely nothing for like 30 seconds straight, then warp back to their starting positions. This only started happening recently though...

I'm trying for my fourth or so time at a 4 player, Immortal AI, Domination victory only, on a small Oval map and I could really use some help. The first game I played I somehow managed to overpower my neighbor and eventually take over his cities and gained control of about half the continent...

Ok. So, yeah, it turns out Songhai had twenty (yes, twenty) aircraft stationed at his closest base to my boarder. Oh, and he could A-bomb me every single turn. :eek: Also, not that I would likely have had a choice on giving up my cities or not, but they still retained most if not all of...

I've never tried that before, but I'll give it a shot and see what happens. I can't remember though.. Do cities retain their full combat strength after being captured? Cause trying to re-take that city with its combat strength, at half health, will cause my units quite a bit of HP if I'm...

Using it. I can't produce the stuff that requires it very fast. Is that really a lot of Uranium though? Babylon just dropped an A bomb on me again before I could even clean up the fallout around it. Either he has a surplus of uranium and bombs or he just rebuilds them THAT fast.

As hilarious and insane as that sounds, I actually have been using my workers before to lure units into capturing them and positioning themselves in a vulnerable location in order for me to kill them safely. :lol:

This is the first Immortal difficulty game I have ever played, and I must say I am finding it many times harder than Emperor. It is a miracle that I have survived this long into the future era, because I have been vastly out-numbered, out-produced, out-teched, and at an economic disadvantage...

Now that im nearly 2 months into playing the game, I finally realized that all the AI's in all the custom games I've faced now have NEVER declared war on one another, except ME! I've started being a little nicer to the AI though by giving them tribute, accepting almost all their trades, giving...

No CD key comes with CIV? Crazy. So I can just reinstall it as long as I have the CD's?

Topic. I can't seem to find it. I have everything that came with the game as far as I can remember.

I was going to start a thread very similar to this one so I'll go ahead and ask my related question here I guess. Is there a mod that improves worker AI so it is actually viable to automate them? I always get bored of late game because of how many city tiles I have to improve by the constant...

I always have a hard time dealing with this, and don't really know how to take it. I realize that giving someone tribute gives you good relations with that civ, but sometimes it just gets excessive, and they ask me for favors constantly. However, if I am already friendly with a civ, is there...

Oh, well thats good to hear. Actually, that probably just means that I suck unfortuantely. :blush:

I was going to ask about this, but does the AI really cheat? I've been suspicous about it since they almost always beat me to an important wonder by 1-2 turns consistently, except for the oracle. Also, they always seem to have an extremely good economy even though they focus on military...
