Merry Christmas!

Thanks neilkaz, I did not see the activation instructions link in the confirmation email. The game is preloading now.

I purchased this yesterday on GMG and my preload has not started. Anyone else not getting the preload? Is there something I can do to get the preload to start or do I just have to wait?

The title of the post made me think this would be an overhaul mod inspired by Civ II: Test of Time https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilization_II:_Test_of_Time

In civ 5 we are used to thinking about 3-4 spread out cities if going tradition. IIRC the devs said we should expect to place around 8 cities in civ 6. Based on the discussion so far in this thread for civ 6, we can consider placing 3 city clusters with 3 cites in each cluster. For example...

I wonder what happens if I build a wonder on a resource? If I build the pyramids on what turns out to be my one oil resource, do I get access to the oil anyways (once revealed), or do I have to do something about the pyramids?

quick, can you spot Chungsu on the mini map... Hint: Chungsu has one city left. I can't understand why the colors changed from nearly indistinguishable from Brazila's colors to mostly indistinguishable from Brazila's colors. and on the marvel quest change; I found the last meteorite...

I very casually followed this strategy with good results. To see how strong spying was, I purposely did not focus on any yield in particular (especially science). By the time I got the spy agency (can't remember the turn) I had the key personality traits and the +25% covert ops speed from the...

Sometimes (maybe every time) I have captured a capital and then captured the new capital I cannot raise the new one. In one instance this effect chained. The sponsor had 4 cities. I captured the original capital first which I could not raise (as intended by the devs). Next I captured the new...

The Hall of Fame does not display planet type correctly I have completed 3 BERT games and the planet type in the Hall of Fame is wrong on all three. Here are the three: Should be: Fungal Tau Ceti d Displays as: Lush Tau Ceti d Should be: Frigid Terran Displays as: Lush Atlantean...

That is why he wants to go home. Too much kimchi for Frenchie

I never did play Fantastic Worlds, but I did enjoy Civ II: Test of Time which would make for an interesting reboot

In my most recent game I captured a city that had an enemy mind flower in its cultural borders (not sure if that city built the mind flower or not). I clicked on the mind flower and it said -1 turns till transcendence victory. I hit next turn and immediately lost to the civ who built the mind...

I don’t think quest are bad, but I agree that if you are always going to get the same two options for building quests, then those options should not be hidden. A toggle between hidden and not hidden is a good solution for those who want the information hidden. I don’t want quests...
