Sorry for being indefinate... :p Yes thank you!

I'm using Mobile so my formatting is incorrect for some reason, sorry!

Hey CFF; I was wondering if there was a way to access some more definite information about diplomacy. The actual conduction of diplomacy isn't hard for me to understand, but the behind the scenes factors I would like to know a little better. Such as things like, "what are the actual values to my...

I believe that they give a production bonus of either 15 or 25 percent to cities in which they are connected to the Capitol.

So, in my current Rome game (Standard Size/Standard Speed/Fractal/Prince/all else default), I control my entire continent, but there are a considerable amount of city sites available. I do plan on winning domination, but I also want to completely take over the world. So, all this aside, my...

Coming from Civ IV, I remember going for an early rush as an effective method for gaining significant potential later in the game in the form of a second capital spot and one less opponent. I'm pretty well versed in the hows an dos of that route in 'IV, but with all of the new concepts that...

Interesting. I'm fascinated that there really is no end-all-be-all. I'll definitely consider everything here. Something (blatantly obvious, but I overlook all of the time), is proper micromanagement. Studying the trees and charts and planning and knowing what's going on etc. has really...

Thanks for the info. I've experimented with using more military units early, as I usually play by my builder playstyle. It seems to have worked well. So I can conclude that science really is the only non situational target and to experiment with new ideas through experience is generally the...

How did you manage to stay ahead of an AI with 3 times your raw science output? Great Scientist Farming?

Super noob thread, sorry to pollute the forums with it... :p I have been playing fairly well on Prince and have won nearly all attempted games lately. I think I'm only just now really playing the game with attempts at formulating deeper strategies than I have have before. However, I find it...

It is the 1 yer anniversary of Civ V release date for the U.S. Just a note of commemoration and thanks to the development team for such a great game! :)

Tough when I was still learning the fundamentals of the pre-patch... Thank God for tooltips! :p

Sorry to take up thread space... :p For performance, not visuals, should I run Dx9 or 10? I've got a fully updated Nvidia GeForce GT 240 with 512 DDR5 and support for Direct X 10.1.

I'm curious what the new patch will do to this... I would disagree with you there. There is a lot of planning and sub-strategies that take place in any game, and I don't think that formula is always true.

Well, for now I can't use my gaming PC's Internet. I'm not using my gaming PC for Civfanatics. Could I relocate my save directory?
