Thank you for sharing that, it makes me feel better to know my situation isn't totally unusual. I do see a fair amount of duplicate resources from time to time as well. It would be helpful to me if folks could share what their target number of unique luxuries per city is. IE do you need four...

Please read my post before responding. I am saying that I find no obtainable luxuries OUTSIDE of those one or two in the starting city. I am asking if that is intended, that a player should have room to build 7-8 cities and have no luxuries in that area.

I have a few questions and concerns regarding map generation and the placement of luxuries. Having generated around a hundred maps in the past week or so I have noticed some definite trends. I am not sure if this is a bug or perhaps a malfunction unique to my computer but it seems that it is...

So this is odd, I have a game where my lake started out working just fine. I don't know what turn it happened on but the yield is now again 1 food 1 gold instead of 2 food 1 gold (no floating garden yet). It isn't a problem with the building then. I think that the game is somehow mistaking lakes...

What if Firaxis were to do what all the CiV lovers say the CiV haters wanted and just update all the graphics for CIV? Call it a new expansion and charge 29.99 for it, throw in a couple new civs, buildings and units and make everyone happy?

"Regardless, a renaissance-tech level city in modern times would still have modern weapons, they'd just be the modern equivalents." Kurdt I am so aghast I don't know how to respond. By your logic Kurdt, civs should have any weapon or unit they want regardless of the tech level. They did not...

I don't understand how bombing a renaissance city would be considered combat though. If the defender has nothing to shoot you with, I mean, all these guys had to attack me with were bows and arrows. A fighter wouldn't be flying low enough to be hit by those even if it could damage the aircraft.

Are cities always supposed to shoot at fighters regardless of their level of technology? I have had a couple experiences where I had flight and a civ didn't have even the right era for anti-aircraft and yet they damaged my fighters. Even a civ still in the renaissance shoots at aircraft.

Heya, I have a similar issue, I posted that I *suspected* there was a bug and not just some kind of glitch unique to my game. I have a game where I am playing the Aztecs and my westernmost city is on a lake and has the floating garden building constructed. Instead of getting 4 food 1 gold from...

I have noticed two very odd things in a game I am playing as Montezuma. The first is that Nobunaga offered me a peace treaty that included all his gold on one turn where he had 41 gold total, and then influenced Lhasa to be his ally instead of mine the very next turn. This was in the very early...

A friend of mine and I just discovered a rather profound and bizarre bug. We were attempting to resume a game we started last night. We had played 235 turns and had no issues loading the game last night as needed. This afternoon however, when we loaded the autosave for turn 235 my friend was...

I have two theories. One is that the AI was near the Guardian of Pristin Pass or that they popped a lair of some kind and got a stack of tough enemies. The other is something I have experienced myself on two occasions. This is really wierd but sometimes a lizardman gets bugged and can capture...

It only goes up to Diety. Even at that difficulty the barbs often kill off some AI teams.

I am afraid I do need the pop-ups. I need anything I can get to distract me from how bad the AI is.

My wife and I have just recently discovered the delights of FFH2 and even more recently discovered the additional wonders of Orbis. We love both and are quickly forgetting how to play vanilla BTS. I can't however wonder why in a fantasy mod there aren't any quests? I am speaking of the build x...
