can confirm that merging works to allow more units to be loaded on ships.

If you have some +xp buildings that count for scouts building one with a sight upgrade could help spot animals for your tracker so it can focus on hunting promotions. When hunting with a spearman give it the forest/hill terain promotions as those also increase the odds of capturing animals by a...

In the latest svn the arboratum produces +20 food probaly because it produces 1 for each building it replaces but a lot of those are limited buildings requiring a special resources(silk+ a second resource) while the arboretum can be built anywhere.

Slavery is the main way i use captured units followed by building buildings if removing the option to build improvements speeds up the game by 1% i would prefer that to keep the ability for them to build improvements i don't use it a lot and you can always promote them to workers if you really...

Played a game a week ago till around the Rifeling tech at nightmare with size matters. During the last war all damage was done and losses of units were done by city defenses. The damage from defenses was high enough that keeping the troops in the transports and taking the invasion penalty and...

You seem to have a lot of gold both as income and in your treasury. you can buy multiple units in a single turn by selecting one buying him and then selecting the next one. As long as all that you bought are at the top of the queue they get build in a single turn.

The cities also need to be discovered by several(i forgot the number) players before they turn into a minor civ.

I am still using them despite their low strength, they are one of the first units that can reduce city defenses without needing to win an attack to survive and can be healed with the same healers the rest of the siege stack(often at that point swordsmen). But they never attack till the point...

I think the enemy can only see one of the units so only one gets stealth attacks.

Sadly not i tried playing a few more turns so all of the autosaves are from after then and the last normal save is from several hours before then:

In my most recent game the turn times went from 20-30s per turn to 4 to 5 minutes per turn in less then 10 turns. I know the game slows as the number of units and cities rise but was not expecting it to get that much slower in so few turns. Also the AI are slow launch attacks(i was at war with...

The last two times I lost a game it was to barbarians both times stacks lead by merged obsidian swordmen while I had not yet unlocked units that strong(nightmare game).

Is the option on where you get research from other players? If that is the case one of them might have researched the tech giving you a boost from that or even settled a city making him strong enough you get research boost from him.

How is rounding done for low health units like healers could the 80% be rounded up to the full health a healer/mechanic has?

The spawn values are for the initial creation for barbarians once they have a city they start to use its production for more units.
