Yup :( I was playing as Mongolia and I took out the other 3 civs on my continent. Saladin was on the other continent; he built the AP and had Hinduism as his state religion. I could not do anything since Hinduism did not spread to any of my cities. I think my problem was poor planning after...

Then this happened http://imgur.com/Wp3cY As you can see from the demographics, I was in a dominant position to win the game.

Valentinian III: When the Roman Empire was being overwhelmed with barbarian invasions, he decided to murder general, Aetius, even though he was the empires best general who managed to shatter Atillia the Huns aura of invincibility and stop the Huns from invading Gaul. It is no surprise that...

Agreed, Civ 4 runs will even on integrated graphics(assuming your computer is new).

There is no way that is going to happen without Net Neutrality. Broadband companies will charge websites for faster loading speeds, which will severely hurt the efforts of anyone trying to make the next Google.

If this agreement comes anywhere close to becoming law, it will be a disaster for Internet freedom. Google will keep search and email free but will abuse it to improve its own position. Google can decide one day that it will not include any pages on this site on its search unless the site's...

Google, one of the most prominent "supporters" of net neutrality has signed a deal with Verizon.The proposal is an a cleverly disguised attempt by Google and Verizon to violate the net neutrality while acting like they support it for several reasons. Net Neutrality says that broadband providers...

@Carl 1 Played to 1860AD Demographics Tech Situation. In retrospect, I should've simply colonized the new world, or DOWed Mehmed. [/SPOILER]

Played until 1200AD IMO, Isabella is a great leader for a Renaissance war because she can easily get 10XP siege without using Great Generals. Demographics My Empire My plan is to attack Boudica or Darius using a combination of CR3 and Accuracy Trebuchets combined with Rifles. [/SPOILER]

Just started an Emperor level game on Pangea as Suleman(Phi/Imp), and I rolled this awesome start. I played to ~500BC, and was doing so well that I forgot I was playing on Emperor. I thought getting floodplains+gold was enough, but the map generator put stone in my BFC :wow:. Btw, there are...

George McClellan(Not so useful Great General) -All units get +25% :strength:, but are unable to attack. -4 relations with Lincoln

Drawbacks:Instant -1000:gold:. Sara Palin(Not so useful GP) -Gives free bridge to nowhere -25% :science: for the rest of the game -Establishes instant contact with Russia. If Russia is not in the game, one of other civs turns into Russia

I agree Benedict Arnold(Not so useful great general) Defects to someone you are at war against and gives them +10000 EPs against you Tacoma Narrows Bridge(Not so useful wonder) Cost:500 :hammers: Collapses the next turn.

I managed to trade for some health/happiness resources and get my city populations up. As I was doing so, I beelined computers and built the Internet, allowing me to achieve tech parity. I then decided to build nukes and attack Zara. I fought a defensive war while constantly nuking Zara, and I...

I have found an SE easy to manage. Just simply build farms and use the extra food to run scientist specialists. But yes you are right, there is a fair amount of micromanagement involved If you are not running a pure SE, I'd forget about pyramids.
