Try legendary start from the options for resource placement. Personally i have found no start so bad it could not be worked out. Just depends what kind of challenge you're looking for.

Thanks for the suggestions Krikkitone. I may not agree with many of them, the following i do agree with. Mounted Units penalty for attacking cities is a good idea. Upgrade to Mech Infantry seems to be a match imho. If they last that long. Stables adding happiness when mounted units...

After acquiring over 20 workers from the Aztec civ, i started deleted them and noticed a strange thing. Delete 1 no change in maintenance cost. Delete 2 saved 10 gold on maintenance. So i can safely say 2 workers = 10 gold in maintenance during the Modern age. Must be some kind of increased...

You are correct that cities have a range of 2. My reason for increasing the range of city defenses are to keep up with the military units range increases. The Dynamite tech advance grants artillery an increase in range to 3 hexes. Battleships have a range of 3 and ships can get a promotion to...

The Great Barrier Reef is 2 hexes worth of Goodness, sitting in the ocean. 1 Happy, 4 hammers and 6 commerce total.

This sounds like a grand idea. Maybe even start with food sharing when each city has a Granary and road connection. Or link it with a social policy like Liberty

I'd like to see the range of cities increase to 3 hexes when Tech advancement Dynamite is reached. Bring back Workshops that add 1 Production to grassland, plains, tundra and desert.

What i would like to see is some dedicated AI offense and defense. 1. The capital should never be undefended. AI should have a dedicated force to defend its capital. If the Capital is a port, there needs to be a defending fleet. (I have taken most capitals and never saw a defending unit)...

3 Frigates were used to bring down defense of city, so Land unit could take it. When the city reached 0 health, i clicked to bombard and it healed the city 1 Hit point. Because it was multiplay, i did not get a save file. If anyone can confirm this oddity , please post here. Thanks.

All cities need food and Culture. Maybe specialization with regards to a Science & Happy city. Wonders could be built with this in mind. For military units, 1 city for Cavalry production. Coastal cities you might want 2 major ship building complexes based on the size of your empire. These are...

My current game, Rome vs Greece, Siam, Egypt, i decided to try out the puppet and annex choices. For Egypt, i just outright annexed each city as they fell. It required a long time to build the courthouses, especially as the populations in all but Thebes were low. Overall it taught me not to...

1. Make city-states your friends. Absolutely a great way to get a leg up on the AI's. Look for the Friendly ones and don't be shy spending coin on your newest City-State GF. Patronage Policy can be an extremely helpful path, if you have the gold and opportunity. Militaristic Matilda...

My friend and i are playing over the net and he gets this error: file not found: art\units\knight\knight death.wav Although it is there nothing seems to work. Needless to say we can not continue the game because of this. I have sent him my file. Changed from Realplayer to Winamp...

This is getting bumped up in hopes of getting somekind of reply.

Hey, does anyone know of a quick fix for this crash? It really stinks to play for multipule hours in an internet game and have this error put a stop to everything. Someone with authority should be responding to the crash prone minority.
