    I'm playing a bit out of date SVN (4560), but it seems the Americans lack a 9:strength: light cavalry???

    [Realism Invictus SVN 4573] - First Monarch Game

    Fun story you are posting! I'm not sure exactly where you are at techs, but I find in RI that wonder failgold is very valuable for pushing techs while maintaining armies. Maybe Colosseum or Great Wall or something that would get an additional bonus from your stone is still available? If nothing...

    Thank you, this mod is amazing. I've probably played it more than BtS or Civ5... A few minor bugs/questions: -Possible to allow Esc to shut advisor windows? -Rite of Passage 'pedia links are circular/broken -When an enemy pillages, I get a message "A mine has been destroyed" but it was really...

    I don't know about the video card specifics, but I'm also running RI below specs. I find that it works tremendously better to play on a small map compared to standard.

    Hello, I just want to chime in and say thanks so much for making such a great mod. It seems like a lot of this thread is feedback on specific bugs and recommendations for suggested additions, so just want a post to simply say thanks! I've been a long time Civ player (since the original title)...

    Sorry again, I just had time to log on again. If Hammy & Peri are warring Bren then they won't be able to move through Celtia to hit us (unless Bren vassals to one of them--if that looks imminent we should intervene and bribe peace, even at the cost of CS). I'm going to have to ask for a skip...

    Glad you could take it sir, and good to see we have peace! I can understand anti-melee axes for mixed stack defense, but I definitely agree on flanking, combat+anti-melee, or straight-melee promo's for HA's. Nice call on attacking the stack, it means double GG points and casualty ratio looks good.

    Hey folks, sorry but I wasn't able to grab this today. If you can play Granddad please go ahead and may the defenses hold!

    I haven't put the save on my Civ comp yet, but if Grandad still can't play until Monday I'll pick it up for today or tomorrow. I'll throw up some more comments after looking at the save, but I'd be hesitant of attacking Shaka without Trebs. At the beginning of Cripp's set he could research...

    With Washington & Asoka lacking MC we can tech that pretty quickly and trade it around too. We don't really need any of the AI-held techs imminently. Should be able to get most techs without trading around CS after MC.

    With Bren sporting elephants, pillage raids won't get very far or be worth the hammers. Likewise I'm not sure about HA's unless he is sending pillage parties at us that lack elephants. In my mind this war is all about diplo for controlling the AP. Can you even send a missionary to his city...

    Can't look at the save atm, but one note would be that it would have been preferable to plantation one of the riverside dyes first for extra commerce. Good to see that Bren is continuing to make enemies across the globe. We should perhaps have refused Hammy's request to join though. It might...

    Nice set WD. Glad to see the trades worked out :thumbsup: The calendar trade and peace with Bren are both key. AP is fun too! I'd go ahead and settle both cities. I marked both during my set, and my vote for the dye town is on the south bank of the river between two dyes. Narri the trades...

    WD - I agree with your three points, but doing the trade I outlined will also leave us with more gold to fund CS research. I also disagree with grandad on some of the other benefits of Lit -- We could probably get HE unlocked during this Bren war and even just running a couple scientists NE can...

    At this point a market is probably only worth it in Constantinople and hybrid horse city, the first of which will be busy with AP. Any reason you are trading for both "bigger" techs with Pericles? We could do Theo + $$$ for Lit/Currency with the Greek, then do Theo for Math + $$$ with Hammy...
