    Can't find a unit, way to cycle through them?

    Check out Moxl Map Search. It adds a search box to the Lens Toggles down in the lower left. Type in "Commander" and it will highlight all tiles with a Commander in it. If there's no commander where you think there should be one, you have a few options: - give up, accept that Firaxis is your...

    Is anyone else tired of the city distance "minigame"?

    I don't mind "stripes and holes" in my Empire. Have you ever driven through west Texas? NB: this was not intended to be abrasive, but it was intended to be a mildly humorous way to say: - it's not that important (to me); - real empires can have chunks of unused or under utilized land; - it...

    Why the Civilopedia so pitiful in every Civ game?
