    [BNW] Settling

    Funny that the general consensus is settling in the SE spot, I didn't even consider that one an option because it seems like it generally lacks hammers, but perhaps I'm underestimating the value of all the food in the first ring. Also, my friends and I play with no quitters mod, which means I...

    [BNW] Settling

    Hey guys, I'm a fairly experienced player who's coming back to civ after almost two years. I still remember most of the stuff and I'd say I sit somewhere between Emperor and Immortal level, but if there's one thing I never dominated is settling. For example, I just started this game as Arabia...

    A Civ worth masterizing

    Hey guys, I'm currently on Emperor level, and I think it would be nice to focus on getting good with a single civ before playing with lots of them. So I wanted you guys to tell me nice civs that are good overall and can handle different types of victory. For example, I like Arabia, Poland, the...

    Playing with the Celts

    Hey guys! I'm moving from King to Emperor and play often with 2 friends as well, one is at Immortal level and the other is at King/Emperor. I got interested by the Celts' UA and UU, can you guys sum up the most popular and most efficient strategies when using them? Thanks!

    Need some advice

    Hey guys, I've started playing Civ 2 or 3 months ago. I've already passed through Prince and King and I'm starting to play Emperor. I have some doubts and I hope you guys can help me. - I realize that many times my cities have problems with food / production in late game, ie, they don't scale...

    Science Victory, Tall Empire

    What are the main factors when going Science Victory in BNW? I have some interest about strategy including SV with a tall empire, can someone give some tips? The best civs in order to do so are Korea, Babylon?

    First time Arabia (multiplayer)

    Playing my first game ever in BNW and first game ever as Arabia (multiplayer, AIs and 2 friends, small continents, standard stuff) I'm currently like this: Went Liberty, planning to build Petra in Medina. I have Bismarck and China as neighbors, but they are a bit far away so I hope...

    About micromanagement

    Not at all, what I meant by short-term problems were big ones, such as an army coming to sweep me soon, or a sudden huge need for a settler, something that really changes the game Btw some insight about the ICS matter I wrote about in my last post would be great

    How to take and post screenshots?

    Yeah I have some issues with posting screenshots too. You can't just press printscreen in a fullscreen Steam game (the outcome is a black picture), so you have to use the Steam screenshot button (mine is F12) then upload it to the Steam cloud, then open it and copy url then post it here. But...

    About micromanagement

    Thanks for the explanation. Regarding wide empires: I was searching for some popular strategies and was reading about ICS, found it interesting. But then when I went to put it in action I figured I just had to deal with enormous unhappiness and problems with GPT. I've read somewhere this is...

    About micromanagement

    Guys, no need to fight over this. Maybe MD isn't an awesome player, maybe he is, that doesn't really matter for me, what matters is that he's good enough so that I can learn from him, and he speaks a lot about what he's doing so it's pretty awesome for anybody who wants to learn. Thanks to the...
