    Need some help playing philosophical leader

    Sometimes you have lots of food resource tiles, but no grassland and floodplains. You need to rely on specialists until you can conquer better land.

    Nobles' Club 387: De Gaulle of France

    After astronomy, I settle one cities on top of each unique resource and then grant independence. The large numbers of units arrive as I finish researching communism. Even with communism, various maintenance costs will skyrocket and your technology will stagnate for a long time (until you...

    Need some help playing philosophical leader

    [RD] Russia Invades Ukraine: Eight

    Sinking an aircraft carrier is difficult, but you could destroy everything inside, including all the engines, so that it becomes a piece of scrap metal floating on the ocean. Yes, I definitely want to see it in action, but sadly I don't think we will because nobody will be around to film it.

    War in Venezuela: The US Invasion

    If Maduro does not care about his power, money, or wealth, what can the US do to force Venezuela to do their bidding? If Maduro is dead and another leader comes to power, what happens if the new leader says thank you very much but then also gives the US the middle finger? Can the Venezuelan...

    Noble Shadow game - Washington

    In my own experience, health and happiness are no longer limiting factors in the late game. There are more ways to get happiness in the late game, and health is usually not a problem for an average city of around size 10. Cities with national wonders are bigger and have health problems so I...

    [BTS] The Impossible Challenge 1: Advanced Barbarians

    I once had barbarians on galleys take my coastal city. Can The Great Wall stop that? Can barbarians naturally (not worldbuilder) get galleons?

    Walls / Castle mechanic

    I build walls in cities that I know will be attacked for sure. No "emergency" build. Sometimes against barbarians. Don't laugh.

    [RD] War in Ukraine: Other topics

    Trump makes random tweets all the time. Just ignore them. He'll forget the next morning. And "paper tiger"? Doesn't that come from early vernacular Chinese? And why didn't the Russian state just ignore the random tweet? I fail to understand the whole thing.
