Also remember that other map scripts reduce the dominance of early game civs. Pangea makes it much more difficult to win with late game civs, probably why you lean towards Hammurabi. Fractal and continents tends towards which land mass you are on. Being on the big continent will definately lean...

Cant leave out KOTOR

.yes.

Hey guys, Not sure where to post this question but I was wondering how one would go about modding the effects of Great Generals. Personally I'd like to change it so that they automatically give the unit they are joined with the March Promotion and access to all the combat promotions (i.e...

Like the mod a lot. America is OP tho. Removing either the +1 hammer upgrade or the free specialist should balance them tho

Thx guys. Appreciate the honest response.

I haven't bought Civ V yet cause I loved Civ IV and was content to play that until I read some reviews on the forums here. For the past few months the game has been out the reviews have been awful so I didn't buy the game and figured to wait till Firaxis 'finished' it properly with patches and...

Dude, he wasn't saying this is evidence of a bug. He is asking if this bias continues with other players so as to see if the developers investigation of the possibility of this being a bug is warranted. If others would try and see if this happens instead of attacking his knowledge of...

Now that we have had 3 full Civs (plus several expansion packs) since Alpha Centauri came out, can we get Firaxis to please make Alpha Centauri II? (or at least an Alpha Centauri II expansion for Civ V, which would be awesome). Dont get me wrong as I absolutely love Civ as well but I have had...

I was refering to the leader's traits from IV

First I wish to start with a question: DO we have unique buildings too or just unique civ traits? Anyway one of the most radical changes in play style I noticed is that many of the Civ traits would imply significantly different strategies from the way some civs were traditionally played in cIV...

Look you have a point about nuclear waste being an issue but I think you're missing the central problem for nuclear waste as we move into the future. We have in fact reached a stage where the left over fissle material resulting from the fuel itself is not very difficult to store nor does it...

quote of the day :)

Perhaps it would be cool to have a bit of the 'nuclear debate' among civs, though in reality a 'thorium' based reactor could still create weapons grade uranium through enrichment. Thorium is 'transmuted' into uranium in the core and then this uranium becomes the fuel. Thorium is, technically...

Um I have. The stigma comes from mostly the American nuclear economy, which is beyond a pathetic setup of old generation heavy or light water plants, the last of which was built in 1996. All radioactive nuclear 'waste' is, by its definition of radioactivity, capable of being burned in a...
