thanks i'm going to start a new game using the settings you mentionned. i Wasn't aware of that bug. In that game i totally focused on expansion on the main land and i didn't allocate any ressources to sea exploration. Since you can't look at the game, let me tell you a bit about it. I...

well i have won a couple monarch games. I can get a decent empire in many games but sometimes i'm still having problems when at war. Particularly in the middle game, the AI has the nasty habit to backstab me when i'm busy with someone else. As it is i think i need to play a couple more games on...

i just want to win , i suppose the easiest way is domination. though i won't disregard any option provided they can be usefull in my situation.

hello, i have been playing this game for a while. I'm quite an old player and started with civ1 quickly moved to civ2 then i left the game for some years. I discovered civIII and it's really a good game. I'm trying to make my way up to the various levels. My aim is to be able to beat the AI...

time to have it a try :ar15: edited: i have played a couple more turns, it didn't help really. I lost a couple more towns. They're just producing too much. Peace won't help me, there just will be more culture flips for the mayas. They must have had a golden age

to optional: i usually follow the research path you mentioned above. Though this time i focused on military techs because it was a small pangea map ( though standard settings, i guess i got 70% water) and i was near many opponents. I thought it would have been dangerous to rush republic. With...

Hello gentlemen, Mr Viri won his first game on Monarch level :crazyeye: . That's the first time i beat the AI at this level. I'd like to move to emperor soon but i'll have to win a couple more games at this level first. I'll start by giving another try to the game in which i was losing to...

You mean at hte point i have given up? You think i can make something good out of that ?? Well i'm always giving up too early so i guess you're right ::) i have already started a new game as portugal and i have a promising position. I'm posting several save at different stage of the game...

I'm reading a couple more strategy articles then i'll give another try to monarch level. I'll post the sav with the starting location.

hmhm :mad: i have given up, those nasty mayas..... i was able to take their capital but they got it back with a culture flip killing most of my swords catas :mad: Then swords and javelin throwers pop up from everywhere and i had to fight a defensive war. I was on the point to build another...

i went with further exploration, developpement etc... i spotted that iron north of Moscow that i hadn't seen before starting the thread :bowdown: I now have my army of 10 swords + some catas and i'm ready to attack the mayas

Just started a new game on monarch level. I set up everything random and ended up playing with the russians. I'm not a big fan of this nation, but i'll have to do with it :rolleyes: . I was quite lucky and got a free settler early on. That gave me more than a decent start i think. I have built...

played another game. one more loss I decided to attack the Iroquee, i should have attacked the Mayas instead. The Iroquee had built the Great wall. I had no iron, no horses. I had a lot of problems taking the first town. The war lasted a lot more than expected than i felt behind in techs and...

i just lost beacuse the iroquee won the space race :mad: i have to start a new game now :rolleyes:. I hope i'll have some iron and salpeter this time. Tough i feel it's more important to have luxuries than strategic ressources, am i wrong? I have attached the sav just when i lost the game...

it's funny people say the step from regent to monarch is an easy one. There are months that i have been playing on monarch and i still can't win a game on this level. I'm ok on regent i think, since on under every circumstances ( well +- :D ) i can a win the game on this level. On monarch i'm...
