Turn 139 241 score. Most of my information is in the opening actions thread. Unfortunately, I failed to realize that Harald was still swamped in barbarians, and failed to guess that France would also be swarmed, so I lost 3 apostles. Had I been better prepared, my win would have been 120 or so...

I have yet to see anyone discuss a trick for religion, so look to my religion section if you want a quirky trick! To start, I've gotten incredibly lucky. Somehow, neither England nor Arabia did much exploring, so I was the first to meet every city-state in the west, except for Jerusalem and...

It means the last prophet was claimed. Once all available prophets are claimed, the policy card vanishes, as it does nothing.

I believe it depends on map size (or number of civs). On a small map, 900 tourism with another generates one visiting tourist. It should be 100 culture generated across the empire means 1 domestic tourist. If you want a lot more specifics, look here. The gauntlet is culture, so people figured...

So I just noticed this restart button mod. Thought it might be useful here... Edit: It may not actually work, so use at your own risk

Something to note: future techs and the repeatable civics are worth the same as the normal ones. So each future tech is only 2 points, as opposed to previous Civ where they would be worth more.

The banned exploit seems to be cheesing the unit selling system (so the builder one, or the buying someone just to sell it, or making units just to sell). Here are the quotes: Second half of Leif's response was to my question

I'm unaware of a listing at least in game. You might try on the wiki. Foreign Tourism is just a function of the amount of tourism you have. You should get more tourists over time as you generate tourism. You can only generate them with Civs you have meet. There are a few policies, one...

Turn 271, score of 1009. I felt I was in a pretty good position at 104, with nearly 70 beakers, having conquered France, Russia, and Kumasi. I decided to wipe out Egypt, which, while necessary, probably ate up 20+ turns, only half because of Egypt itself. Right as I start the war, 15 barbs...

I know it's a little past 100, but I waited until I captured Kumasi. Here's a rundown: Discovered France and Russia early, and Egypt not that long after. Managed to be the first to meet Stockholm and Hong Kong I decided from the get go to rush down some nearby cities, so I prepped for that...

Declare war when you see their religious units coming toward you and wipe them out. If they never convert you, they don't win.

I'm unaware of any special way to get fights other than slamming into AI units.

I've already switched to low-culture opponents as my best attempt placed waaay too many tourists when I focused with civs that likes religion. Haven't had a good map yet though...

Use inquisitors to fight them off...

That'll be the real challenge. However, sometimes you can have a shallow water bridge between continents.
