I didn't understand it at first, but as the thread progressed I got it down pretty good. The game I had started in this thread was too late to save, but I'll be definitely paying more attention to my city placement in the following games.

Ah, I misunderstood then. Well, I guess that's good to know before I found out the hard way. :lol:

I'm fairly certain I understand the city placement, it's also nice that the cities can cross-work tiles. This is going to make things much easier on the next difficulty. I may try specific games also and try to focus on different game elements rather than try to do everything at once. Some...

Someone needs to beat me over the head with the BFC book. I'm just not understanding it.

I understood the fat cross, but I assumed that cross would grow with the city? Does it not? If it doesn't, I guess that's what I've been thinking wrong this whole time.

I don't have the original save for this game. I have overwritten the file each time I have saved my progress. Thanks though. I will do another game soon though, and I'd be interested to see what your thoughts are on starting locations on the map that generates. Here is my current save game...

Thanks guys, I'm going to work this game through and see how it all goes. I'll post another save game file later on. After this, I'll take what I learned and move the difficulty up a notch and try to make some changes.

Some notes on my cities. Please comment and tell me where I went wrong: Cologne: Placed in center of 3 resources. Cow, Rice, and Elephants. City needs one expansion and I have all 3 of those resources captured. I thought placing the city in the middle of all these was perfect. Essen...

I guess I'm totally confused on the city placement aspect. I placed each of those cities to capture all of the resources that I saw on the map. There are some that I haven't had a chance to get to yet, but the cities I have placed were put there only with the intention of getting the resources...

Thanks for the advice guys, I'll definitely consider everything each of you had to say. In the meantime, I started a new game this afternoon and will be trying to include some of the advice that you guys gave me. This game seems to have started off well, and I am trying to focus my...

Here is a link from a previously completed game. In this game, I tried to go for the Space Race win. I was winning at first, but eventually was passed and was being beaten by another AI that was pushing parts of it out much faster. I don't even think I was able to complete one part. Of...

Yeah, I could do that. I'll post a save from a previously completed game. The game was ended due to the time limit and I was at the bottom of the 3 CIvilizations. Played against 2xAI. Will post it in a few moments.

I have been trying since I purchased this game to understand all the aspects of it, but it seems that I cannot grasp the concepts as easily as I'd like. I cannot do well at all Noble difficulty, and Warlord still presented quite a challenge. I have never won a game yet or had a score that got...
