Well I had a go at him before he took out Monty. While I was killing more of his units but when he can out produce me it was only a matter of time before I could not stop him every where. He had my huge northern border with him to attack across and I was still busy fighting him on my...

Well the ones that were left were busy fighting each other so getting the other Civ's to help was out of the question.

Well I had a game recently where Hiawatha expanded quickly then went on the warpath. First he crushed Alex, then he took two of Napoleon's cities leaving the last for Sully. He then gets in a dual war with both Monty and Wu Zeitan crushing Wu's cities quickly. So there he is with almost...

Well they should have krakatoa blow up in 1883 which could make the game more interesting.

Though for some of us, we seem to be the very last ones to get a starting position. Which is usually the worst of all the starting positions. So yes if I am put into the deep south or far north and I can see about half my terrority being snow and ice I would restart.

Oh I was not discouraged since I only lost a few units and killed far more. It was that in order to build the army that I needed I would need more than two Iron. Plus a few horse could come in handy. When the war first started Washington closes city was around 20 hexs away and through...

I did finish the game and as expected Alex won by having the most City States votes after he built the UN. I did not have a money issue until right after Cathy Nuke my one of my cities. But they can easy be able to build huge armies and at the same time have money and happiness.

But it should learn that if you are killing every single unit that they send your way that just maybe they should get the hint. I must have destroyed something like 60+ Russian units over those 137 years. I knew that when she sent those first initial group of units down onto my southern...

Well in my current King game Washington DoW me sometime back in the BC's and we stayed this way until 1800 AD when he finally just asked for Peace instead of the standard. Give me all your money Give me all your stuff Give me Open Borders Oh and give me this city Yes he was bigger than...

Make fair trades Create a friendship bloc Honor calls to arms Maintain and army Don't take their land Don't steamroll CSs I am all for fair trades but when someone ask for my Gems, Silk, Cotton & Spices plus my Iron and Horses for just his Wine. Well, that is not a fair trade. As to...

True, so you should plan for this. I actually got to -10 happiness and was having some issues but I also had an Great Engineer and use him to hurry up Notre Dame which solve that problem. I also use my money to buy the Happiness buildings. It not in double digits but it positive for...

Washington did the same to me. Though the only aggression that I was doing was against Barbies. So he come at me with his much larger army but I am on the piece of ground that has a huge inland sea to my east and the Ocean to the west. only two ways in from the North and South and they...

Well in the first game that I started after the patch Standard size Pangea map King with Arabia I got lucky with a hut and was able to start up The Hanging Garden. 10+ food means that I quickly built a size ten city very quickly. This helped when Washington declared on me and sent his army...

Well since you need to grow your cities so that you have people to do the work. I put farms on the tiles next to rivers. Forests near the city usually get chopped because the lumber helps gets that wonder that you want. Plains usually get the Trading Post. But I have been building more...

Well will more than likely head right to The Hanging Gardens. Then go after writing. Though the Gardens will require you to look after the Happiness since your city will grow fast.
