    Acken's Minimalistic Balance for singleplayer (and AI improvements)

    Bombers have historically always been virtually helpless to defend themselves hence they always had fighter escorts. so clearly intercept % should be %100 with promotions that allow for more dmg dealt during interception. I also believe that air repair should only be available at the 4th...

    Where would you settle ?

    worker stealing and xp farming CS are very viable strategies that can pay big dividends. But dont DoW more than 1 cs or its a huge penalty.Conquering CS is also rarely a good idea.

    Where would you settle ?

    I mistook the highlights on the hexes for river my bad,so in this case i would settle in place. if the desert tile did have river though i would settle there instead...why? because otherwise that tile will be unworkable,by settling on it you turn it into a 2f 1 h tile and connect the 3rd whale...

    Where would you settle ?

    Settling 1 tile off the coast is just bad,now you will have to wait till one of your coastal expos can build fishing boats to connect the whales in the cap.also no lighthouse/harbour or seaports. The flat desert tiles on the coast would have been much better. and yes settling to the west first...

    How to "reliably" found a religion on Deity without being last?

    1. There is no reliable/semi-reliable way to do this a side from using a faith based Civ on a cooked map. 2.You can get SH 100% of the time by conquering the civ that built it. beyond that you have a better chance of having a 3-way with Ellen Degeneres and Rosie O'donnell than hard building it...

    I recently tried a 4 city tradition peaceful SV with the shoshone on acken immortal. I took defenders of the faith figuring a 40% combat boost between the shoshone UA and DotF would enough to let me tackle the AI unit spam. By industrial it was clear that i was not going to be able to...

    @Bob Morane ^^^Exactly this ^^^ The object is to stop the AI from expanding There are two ways to do this... 1.You can expand rapidly and extensively yourself, which will lead to multi front wars. 2.You can conquer the cities the AI has built "for you",which of course leads to war. Option 2...

    You wont be turtleing to a peaceful VC in this mod....you also wont be turtleing 4 city tradition until arties then going to war.(unless you are playing archepielago,small continents)Peaceful games just dont exist in this mod.The AI will force you into multiple wars long before that happens.And...

    it would appear the same mistake applies to tradition as well,in V2 i saw a pretty even mix between the 4 opening trees....now its just liberty and honor with very rare exceptions.

    This doesnt change the fact that tradition and piety are clearly inferior opening trees than liberty and honor.

    Acken's Minimalistic Balance for singleplayer (and AI improvements)

    Dont get me wrong,tradition and piety are both viable...but they are also both clearly inferior to liberty and honor as far as opening trees go imo.
  14. P

    Acken's Minimalistic Balance for singleplayer (and AI improvements)

    Yes but Liberty and Honor are the top 2 95% of the time. I am astonished in V3 anytime the AI opens tradition. Thats not to say they dont take tradition at all,but its usually taken as a filler after liberty or honor by the AI

    Loading this mod is the first and best clue that a double/triple DoW is coming by T60, all other factors are irrelevant ;)
