    Financial & Philosophical, what?!!!

    I'm playing a standard continents game on noble now with Liz and +1 AI from the standard for this size map. I picked LIz just for the heck of it. I see a lot of people on here talk about specializing cities. I've yet to do that to the extreme I've seen discussed. That's not to say I don't...

    First buildings in a new city

    Always a theater unless I'm playing the creative trait. Then its either theater, lighthouse or granery depending on the location (for the latter two) or if I've got a lot of empty land that needs to be filled quickly with culture.

    Lost Interface After Patch

    I did get the same message. I tapped retry (the bar progressed) and repeated several times. but I think I hit ignore at the end. and it finished installing the patch. Unfortnately I'm still in the same boat... no interface.
