Denver, Frankfurt, Kiev, Jayakarta and Chicago all come to mind

There is presumably one very small city with Judaism somewhere. Judaism just doesn't have enough followers to round up to 1%. Once a religion is completely wiped out, the religion screen says that it was never founded. (It is, by the way, not possible for Christianity to fail to be founded. If...

India usually does well as a respawn because for some reason they always respawn with more tech than everyone else. I've also seen a China respawn be powerful, and Germany sometimes does well. It's the countries with small cores that struggle when respawning.

Except the human player can never be a vassal to anyone (it's hardcoded into the game), and in any case being a vassal causes civs to behave strangely.

You're also missing Accra, even though the Malinese conveniently built it for you.

You're also missing Portuguese India and the Moluccas as well as Malacca.

Agreed. There's a fairly substantial group of civilizations that will never, ever be taken out of any Civ game, and Greece is one of them. Ancient Greece Rome Persia Egypt Asian China India Japan European England France Germany Russia America This doesn't actually say...

Doesn't Sur flip to both the Arabs and the Turks?

Just thought I'd provide some input for Venice's UHVs... 1. Control Constantinople by 1250. (You could fiddle around with the date a bit. This encourages accumulating gold and hijacking a crusade or two.) 2. Control Dalmatia and have at least four cities in Greece by 1550. ("Greece" means the...

There's no Mud on the Marsh tiles in Hungary, making them passable and able to be developed. I don't think this is intended.

I strongly dislike the idea of Oliver Cromwell being the English leader for the entire Early Modern period. Either have him for about fifty years and then switch to George I or something, or just keep Elizabeth on. I don't see why Elizabeth is a problem after 1604.

Nah. Greece has the most crazy-insane UP. Well, maybe the Maya do, but they suck so much that it doesn't matter. China's UP is also incredibly powerful but mostly useless except for the third UHV since China shouldn't be doing much conquering anyway (and can't, really, if it wants to hold its...

I agree that the German UHVs are both boring and somewhat unrepresentative. If Prussia were added, things might be different, but as it stands I would advocate changing the first German UHV, at least, to the following, to make it more challenging and make the map a bit more dynamic: 1. Control...

A lot of base RFC civs have overlapping cores: Spain and Portugal; France, Germany and the Netherlands; Arabia, Turkey and Babylon. Nobody in RFCE does, but I don't think that needs to be the case. Also, careful with making the AIs more aggressive against the Independents. You don't want...

How so? That's even weaker than +1 Health because it can only be built in a non-freshwater city, and I don't see how providing a fresh water source would do anything for a city tile but be +1 Health.
