    We do not speak spanish and more

    I'm also Brazilian. While the names are silly, what I take from it is that the Brasilia civ isn't really Brasil... it's more a futuristic blend of all south american nations... So I guess they have an excuse. As I said, the names are indeed silly, but it doesn't bother me too much.

    I really can't tell if there's Miasma.

    Specially when zoomed out, it's impossible to tell if there's Miasma or not in a tile. It's such a faint cyan mist that blends so well with the terrain that it's basically impossible to tell there's miasma unless I hover the tile with the cursor. Any way to change it's color through mods...

    Biggest Nightmare

    You're happilly growing tall with your peaceful cultural empire when Pocatello decides to expand in the tiny space between your cap and your only other city. On Deity. This is my definition of nightmare.

    TSG72 Opening Actions thread

    Played around 125 turns and ended my first attempt after messing up my invasion of Shosone capital. While grabbing his 2 other cities was fairly easy, his capital is in a utterly horrendous position for invasion - fully surrounded by mountains and hills and rough terrain - and I wasted a...

    TSG71 After Actions

    TSG71 was a brilliant game and I had a blast :goodjob: Eagerly waiting TSG72!!!! Suggestion: Possibly been done before, but since 71 was a very peaceful game overall, how about a Raging Barbarians game as Montezuma (or Bismarck), who can really capitalize on killing barbs? :) Thanks for the...

    STEAM Sale through 7 October

    Exactly, literally hours after I bought the few DLC's missing (Polynesia, Denmark and map pack)... Oh well. :( Anyways, they should make one big all-DLC pack. Not for me, but lots of people would buy it, if it included everything. It's a chore having to buy each small DLC individually, plus...

    TSG70 After Action thread

    After 150 turns or so, I was able to estabilish my empire with 2 cities and a stable gold income and positive happiness... but I fell waaaaay behind any other civilization in the game, even Spain which got crushed by the assyrians from early on. I retired that game and ended gaming for...

    How are you related to CiV?

    My grandfather's grandfather was the one who first estabilished our family, and he was a bucaneer. He bought lands in Portugal with the gold he got from pillaging an enemy ship. That sounds pretty Civilization-ish on its own. Other than that, I live in Rio, Brazil's first capital.

    TSG70 Opening Actions thread

    Is it 100% impossible to get GL in this game? I got good culture ruins and Tradition - Wonder Building policies. Rushed Pottery-Writing and built GL the turn it was opened, and still... By turn 30, someone else already completes it. I even managed to snatch a worker from Pacal in the...

    TSG70 Opening Actions thread

    Oh boy... Deity means I have slim no chance of winning, but still, I'll try to learn from this and see what you guys are doing. At least Poland is a kick-ass civ. I'll move the Warrior southwest and most likely settle in the hill/river east of the wheat, unless Warrior finds something great.

    TSG66 After Action thread

    Wait, help me understand this a little bit. How do you get a Prophet 2 turns after Shrine? I'm assuming you rushed Shrine with every single expo? Did you gold buy them?

    TSG68 After Action thread

    I gave up on this one. I attempted 3 times, one was a warm-up and doomed from the start, the latter 2 both went the same way... I managed to beat Shosone but it took just way too long, and the war took a toll, and I had money and happiness problems. It brought me all the way to turns 150+ and...
