My impression is that buying tiles also causes stability issues... can anyone confirm/discredit?

Just had a 3hr 4-player game crash 'connection to host lost' and back to main menu... no way to save, no way to check out the names of the players to add them as friends... no way to report a crash.... ffs I was at the brink of invading my neighbour :-(. What might have caused the issue is...

I think it's even necessary to build an economy: virtues and affinities and production capacity. When that's set up you can mobilize and start producing a high strength war machine.

It is far from the depth and engagement of ciV. perhaps it will get there, but for now all you'll get for your bucks is novelty value. There's interesting new mechanics in the game, but there's also a lot lacking and especially the fact that ciV problems weren't addressed is disturbing. I'd wait...

Great post, covers exactly my experience too... Highlighted the most important ones inmho. I don't get ur number 7 though... To me the stations seem extremely lame compared to internal/other civ trade routes past midgame... They should be the powerful ones, also hate that there is no diplo...

aaargh... that's what u get for setting expectations... hahaha thanks for the heads up!

Sorry for the stupid question, but shouldn't the stream be live now? Twitch will just play right, or do we need to login or something?

So, I decided to also do this immortal challenge thing. Just moved up to it from emperor and not yet getting repetitive wins, but the practice game with Ottomans was a great domination game.

It has been a very long time since my last post, but the release of Gods and Kings has revived my old Civ addiction. I've been getting wins at emperor lately and just played through a very interesting immortal game that feels like I'm actually surviving it. However, at the moment I do not...

Thx for the tip, I've seen the topics come by, I might make some time to take part in one. What do you think about the cultural victory on the new dotmap? Try it with new purple, red and white? Red and White will get some good chopping hammers, but especially new purple is still low on them...

Ok guys, I took in your comments and came up with the new dotmap. I also did some calculations of what the various cities should deliver which is also attached. The overview on the left is for the 2nd dotmap, the one on the right for the 1st, so looks like your pointers really did something (ok...

That might be a good idea, thx, I was thinking of getting the marble online to snag some early wonders though. Game observations/goals: Isolated and no horsies, so I can forget about Kublai's UU. I'm creative, on an island with Marble and Stone, so shooting for cultural win and doing some...

After years of playing the civ series I've recently picked up BtS. To improve my game I decided to do some serious dotmapping this time and I'm looking for you guys to give me some comments on the way I mapped this little island out. I might post how the game progresses to get some more heads...

Hi guys... first GotM (and post) for me so bear with me... playing open class PTW 1.29 I've just started recording my actions and descisions in docs, but unfortunately not for this game... so I'm just showing the map from when I just got Feudalism... around 330BC Resizing image [Done!]...
