    kicking yourself in the foot with religion

    Haven't "tested" this, but I've definitely seen AI Pantheon beliefs in my cities that converted to the AI religion. Specifically, Desert Faith, in a couple of games.

    Map Generation: Horizontal Plot Shifting

    As far as I've noticed, the wonky shifting is only on the initial session. After a save & reload, the map is centered properly.

    Raze enemy city- lose ground?

    This behavior has always been around including Vanilla & G.Artist Culture booms. And it's always a been a pain in OCC, especially.

    Trouble Understanding the Petra

    And Petra will give the bonus to any mountain that has desert underneath as well, as I was surprised to note yesterday.

    "Optics" Tech

    I will add, although it is irrelevant in this particular case, that you only have to step into friendly territory to get the initial embark "promotion." That includes friendly City-States and even Civ's you have Open Borders with. (I'm posting this because it was a long time until I realized...

    So, how do you buy great ppl?

    Just the opener. But it doesn't matter when Commerce unlocks, you can't buy a GM until the Industrial Era and only in a city with a dominant Religion.

    The Uber Prophet unit

    Not sure if this is completely true. I created a GProphet in a Djenne city and sent it down to convert the Holy City of the now wiped out Spanish.

    Maya - Good or just Great?

    For the overall course of a game, I don't think the Mayans lose out on generating the GP you want, it just comes about in a different way. The early extra faith you'll be getting from the shrine eventually can be used to buy, in the Industrial age on, the GP you missed out in the midgame...

    Unable to dismiss some notifications

    Any news on Steam preload?

    Thank for posting that. I knew there had to be some trick to get Steam ( :mad:) to start downloading it.

    Great Generals (combat bonuses)

    As a note, it affects your guys who are two tiles away BEFORE combat. I was trying the Mongols last night and had a general(Khan) right behind a horseman. Sent the Horseman a full 5 tiles away to attack an archer, and the odds still had the General Bonus displayed.
