The suggestions for Canada aren't bad, but I have my own preferences. (I'm in agreement that Canada hasn't done enough or been around long enough to be a civ yet) Unique Ability: Global Politeness (Canada can force peace with any Civ by apologizing profusely-- even if the other party started...

I'd like to see an expansion that actually delivers what is promised. But putting the snark aside... I'd like to see religion and espionage make a return. I never liked corporations, so I'd prefer they leave that out. I'd like to be able to trade maps and technology again. I can live without...

Ahhh that's a thought. I'd poked around in a few files looking for a setting like that, but didn't come up with much. I'll have to go have a look at that file now. It's actually in MP that I'd like to use it, so I'll have to make sure I change the setting on my wife's computer too. We've...

398. Giant Death Robots run on fusion power, but for some reason still need uranium.

I find that I don't like late game warfare either, but not for the reasons you cite. I find that technology moves much too quickly that late in the game to use effectively. By the time I've built an infantry, moved him across the continent (or ocean) to the enemy, I've got the tech for...

I believe you can see where your resources are currently being used by hovering your mouse over the little icons in the top bar. It's either there, or in the top left menu (where your currently researched tech shows) is an option to show where they're being used.

377. It takes 3 years to walk the perimeter of a city, unless it's forested in which case it takes 6 years. 378. It takes a year to cross a river. 379. It takes a year to embark or debark a ship. 380. A nation can only learn one thing at a time. 381. If you are honorable, massacring barbarians...

368. English Longbowmen have a greater range than a battleship 368a. Longbowmen can sink a battleship 369. Horses, cows, sheep and elephants are a permanent fixture of the terrain, and can in no way be moved. 370. No one knows how to plant a tree 370a. Wheat and bananas can't be planted either...

I figured it must've been, but I couldn't find it. Oh well. As you said, it's still funny.

I'm not sure if this has been posted before (I did a quick search and didn't come up with anything) but thought this was amusing and wanted to share it here. http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=9601 Watch the video/listen to the song, and read the lyrics underneath. (I know...

1. Dunno. Only played BTS 2. Yes. Pick to play a Custom Game, and there's an option to play without the Armageddon Counter

You can change the default selections in "Custom Game" by editing \Assets\XML\Gameinfo\CIV4GameOptionInfos.xml To change the number of opponents you have by default on each map size: \Assets\XML\Gameinfo\CIV4WorldInfo.xml I had a similar problem of taking all the time to configure my...

Looks like you can change the default number of players in Assets\XML\Gameinfo\CIV4WorldInfo.xml

The path is actually: \Assets\XML\Gameinfo\CIV4GameOptionInfos.xml But thanks for posting that. I was going to ask if there was a way to set some of the options so I wouldn't have to do it every time.
