Hi. I'm playing as the Mazatl (Mihuatl) and I'm having trouble creating Miquiztli. I searched through the bugs thread and also searched the forums, and didn't see anything pretaining to this, so here I go. I have a level 6 priest of Arguonn, and the requisite techs, and I cannot upgrade him to...

That scream scares my sister... she's 15 years old.

After destroying every civ on the map, and reducing the last to one city and 4 squares, I sat around building my score. A thousand years later, they build an archer and attack my modern armor, in what I consider the worst tactical move in history.

Here is the map from that game, about 1200 AD.

It makes sense that, the smaller the map, the faster the game. Of course, this all made sense. But here are my revelations on my first time ever playing on a tiny map. I usually pick huge, so I didn't know what to expect. After numerous microseconds of laborious concentration, I decided it would...

Hello again. It has been a while. Of course, I'm at college now, so I may or may not return here often. I am going to post something of a story, though.

Keep it up!

What level do you think I should be playing? And, by the way, I couldn't declare war earlier because I work my way around the big snake of a continent, killing all of those I touch. This was on a 200*230 map, and it took me a while to get through 15 civs.

The closest thing that I've had to a world war was the pacts that Greece, Carthage, Babylon, and Persia signed against me in my latest game. I had already conquered Persia and brought it to a single city, a pet civ, and declared war on it every once in a while for fun and money. Babylon was...

I should probably play on a harder level, maybe then Greece will pay a little less attention to me.

I use nukes to kill whales offshore of enemy cities. Is this wrong? It makes no pollution, the neutral civs don't care, and it might frighten the enemy since they know that I have nukes. Cool, eh?

Make absolutely certain that your railroad network has a link to the enemies' roads. Build these before you declare war, and be ready, with your units near their borders, on your railroad. It is best to attack a culturally weak city first, because your units won't waste as many movement points...
