I guess this thread could have been a poll, but it's nice to hear how people are moving up the ranks, there are lessons to be learned about that. Siff

The latest level I was playing is prince, I won one game there. Tried the next one but it was to hard for me. Siff

When city is selected, hold shift and press the right mouse button at the location you want the units from that city to go to. This can also be done with multiple cities selected. You will see a yellow ring forming on the spot. Siff

When setting rally point from cities, it does not work. In the original game the units would start moving and then stop at random locations. With the new patch, the units do not move at all out of the cities. Anyone else experience this? Siff

Strange :) Siff

Nice one, how did you compile this list from the xml? by hand? Siff

walkerjks is on the money :) Build cottages all around, everywhere you can and the money will come tumbling in. Tried this in my last game (prince level), converted to a foreign religion but still was able to expand like crasy! Siff

Classical overextension :) Siff

I go for as many as I can, as long as there is land to use. It's quite hard to expand in Civ IV compared to civ III, that is because it's so expensive. What I generally do is spread religion as fast as I can and convert my opponents in order to get income, it is also nice to see what is going...

Brilliand work Stuporstar! Thanks... Siff

Some nice points there Dairuka. I just finished a similar game i.e. spread religion early on like mad, at one point everyone except one civ had my religion :) into the game I allied with two strong civs and togather we crushed our enemies. When I got the UN, I had them eating out of my hand...

With "state Property" you have no maintenance cost from distance to palace +1 food from workshop and +1 food from watermill. The watermill generates a lot of gold, about 3. So the reason I choose it is because there is also growth going on with excess food. It may well be that +1 trade route...

found it, sorry :) Siff

Looks like this one is just tech/hardware oriented, should'nd there be a bug-report forum? There are alot of them in the game! Siff
