Thanks to you! :king: Yup, population and score did skyrocket. I looked up some archived posts and I found out that population is 50% of the score. Now I understand why my score plummeted after I whipped simultaneously in multiple cities. Decided to go for Diplomatic Victory at first. I...

Seems that having enough workers makes a major difference. Also having them build right improvements is important too! Workshops and Watermills become important much later than I've realized! Now that I have right techs and civics they're awesome! It's a complete waste to build them so early...

Thanks for your advice, Ghpstage! What about my massive army? It's going into waste now. Only if I could trade them for workers! :lol: Should I delete some of my units? The ones with less XP, to reduce upkeep? In a hindsight, yes it seems that I've ignored my leader's traits and built...

I ended up replaying from ~900AD to 1515AD. As a result I'm leading my former 1540AD save by ~120points! Now that I've erased Huyana from my island I feel I've built too many military units! What should I do with them? Go after Mansa Musa? Also, what city should be made as GP-farm? The...

Hmmm, you're more than right! I built so many buildings because of the war weariness unhappiness, but since that can be resolved more easily I'll go hereditary rule. Second reason why I build so many buildings is that usually I end up building everything in every city. Should specialize them...

Hello and merry Christmas to everyone! Since I (already) got bored to Civ5, I decided to go back to good old Civ4... I decided to improve my play based on Sisiutil's early ALC games, mainly because of good documentation, veteran player's tips/guidance and the fact I own only Civ4 Vanilla...

When I usually play Civ4 I end up saving quite often. Ending up with 100+ saves per game. In Civ5 I made it autosave every 5th turn, max autosaves being 1000 :D And I agree that quickload doesn't suit Civilization. Usually I have newer save somewhere, so I load that one instead of quickload.

IIRC they do need promotion for the 3 hex range. At least destroyers did... And have fun playing, henricsson79

Edit: (Facepalm) Sorry for double post. You can't fail with these instructions:

Yup, but if we'd have artillery shooting 6+ hexes away...

I was the puny in that game! :) Although I was quite aggressive towards anyone who got too near my OCC-City. Seems that AIs are like CSs who gang against you once you've bullied them enough!

Thanks, I was hoping someone would boomerang it back to me. I chose Al because I got some weird flashback at some point from Al Bundy, Married with Children! :lol: Thankfully there's very slight difference between L l and I i... Turn 113 Medina (Harun al-Rashid) was captured by the Aztec...

Indeed this seems to be the case. Based on civ4 and human history this seems quite absurd. Unfortunately no savegame prior the event. Got only 5 endgame savegames (manual ones). Autosaves seem to be destroyed/rewritten with new ones :S Nevertheless, here's the replay and the map file...

Apparently! Hope you all like it! :D There was this nice love triangle going on you know... and all of a sudden I ended up with that. :blush: And I even enjoyed writing it! Crazy, huh? :mischief: The BUG In a nutshell: Monty and I wipe out the Al. I take Al's capital (no puppeteering). Monty...

Same thing happened to me today. Played OCC @ King difficulty with Gandhi. I built myself an army to fight off AI settlers settling too close my borders/behind my territory. Even attacked some AI cities and successfully destroyed some of their cities. Every time they got too close I released my...
