Out of curiosity, how many people find the Slavery Civic worth even the one turn of anarchy? Honestly, are you really going to sacrifice six population points (especially this early in the game) just to finish a granary that would be finished in eight turns? Nothing is that pressing. (I...

The Problem: I thing we can all agree that the fact that the latest game Recon unit is a unit from the Renaissance Era, the Explorer. Picture this; you land your transport (modern era naval unit) on your enemy soil. A modern armor followed by two mechanized infantry, and perhaps a SAM...

My Final Solution to the Border Question: -Everyone has automatic territory which is defined by their cultural borders the same way Civilization IV handles it. -Recon Units are given the 'claim land' option, which costs one movement point. -This action plants your Civilization's flag on the...

Stealth units (units that cannot be seen by the unit they are attacking) should be able to attack other units that cannot identify them without declaring war or revealing their nationality! What's the point of submarines if I can't sink everything with impunity while remaining on everyone's...
