Thanks, I wasn't sure.

Does anyone have a link to a Civ 5 demo download?

Ha ha....well said! If I didn't have to waste so many hours on sleep, I could have beaten diety by now :king:

Sounds like the "Always Peace" option is on. Plus, I noticed, (on BTS anyway) if you click an option like "no barbarians", etc it will stay that way on your next game as well, unless you de-select it. You may not even know the Peace selection is on...it's at the bottom of the game options list &...

You are correct, it's in the middle of the Byzantine empire.

Precisely why I never go for quests. Are there any quests worth going after?

That's a good idea, I will have to keep that one in mind.

I think Antioch is usually a Holy Roman city, which isn't a civ in my current game. So I don't think it was captured. I could be wrong tho. I was shocked to see a barb city that late in my game, it just slipped through for centuries & I never noticed it. It should be noted, the barb city never...

This applies to the Barbarian cities as well. In my current game, the barb city of Antioch has a pop of 9, and also has 9 votes (and no buildings). The city was converted to the AP religion sometime during the game. I totally missed this city most of the game because it was shaded black & was...

Back in 1989 I bought Pirates! and became addicted to that game. After that, I bought anything with Sid Meiers name on it. Strangely enough, I never bought Civ I :confused:. I can't remember why I started with Civ II

It's ok, I had to use a calculator to figure out what 7 x 7 was! :crazyeye: My kid should be able to beat me at civ in a few years, I can easily beat him now...but he's only 6....in human years

One dog year = 7 human years (a sad attempt at humor) :sad:

I'm 7 years old......in dog years

I really don't think this statement applies to the people on this site. I like reading other people's opinions and game strategies. I've never encountered an elite attitude from the many expert players on this site, many will give a new player advice without sounding like know-it-alls. Your...
