    When do you conquer city states?

    Even though I lean towards conquest for many games, I rarely attack city states. In my current Hungary game, I didn't meet any of the nearby city states first and Babylon was close by with a worker ripe for the taking. I'm planning on taking the city, greatly increasing my population and army...

    [GS] Early Game - so many decisions... Build orders are extinct.

    Slinger is usually my 3rd build, after Scout and Settler, and usually my 4th and 5th as well. I usually play Continents. Unless you start in a corner, the Scout and Warrior will only reveal about half of the immediate map. Having a 3rd unit gives you a full view of where you really are. There...

    Giant death Robots?

    To be clear...theres a complaint about a games historical accuracy. A game that has Gilgamesh as a leader.

    Colosseum - 23+1=24. Yes, you do have to plan ahead more with this one to get the most value out of it, but that's a feature, not a bug. I'd rather have the amenities, culture, warmongering, extra tile production from larger cities, extra science from more population that this provides dozens of...

    Big Ben - 29 Casa de Contratacion - 25 Colosseum - 39 Eiffel Tower - 16-3=13. A great wonder to be sure. But if the real benefit is to help you win a CV by boosting tourism output from resorts, isn't that really just shaving off 10 turns from your win time? Not as impactful as the rest of this...

    Big Ben - 31 Casa de Contratacion -25+1=26. 3 governor titles is a lot. +15% to gold, faith and production in a wide empire is a lot. Colosseum - 33 Cristo Redentor - 22 Eiffel Tower - 21 Forbidden City - 36 Great Zimbabwe - 4 Kilwa Kisiwani - 18-3=15. Hard to believe this is still so high, or...

    Alhambra - 23 Apadana - 12 Big Ben - 24 Bolshoi Theatre - 6+1=7. Yes, this is expensive, late and GMs are not super valuable...but it gives two free civics. That's better than a lot of the wonders left here, Casa de Contratación - 24 Colosseum – 27 Cristo Redentor - 22 Eiffel Tower - 23...

    Alhambra - 23 Angkor Wat – 11 Apadana - 21 Big Ben - 25 Bolshoi Theatre - 17 Broadway - 5-3=2. Ok for a cultural victory, but it's pretty weak compared to the others remaining. Casa de Contratación - 22 Colosseum - 29 Colossus – 13 Cristo Redentor - 21 Eiffel Tower - 21 Forbidden City – 31 Great...

    [R&F] Your Best Little Strategies

    Video may have been dated. He claimed that it was different in the XML, but that his play tests showed that it stayed consistent. If true, it is silly.

    [R&F] Your Best Little Strategies

    One I learned from a video the other day on cultural victories. Your tourism nets you a foreign tourist for every 1200 total you accumulate, regardless of map size, or number of opponents. I don't remember who's vid that was though.
