Yeah, it is a good question. I attacked Tiwanaku as an opportunist move, as Charlemagne was attacking Cuzco with a large stack, which I expected...
Wow. Interesting stuff for me there, thanks. I've not stacked whip unhappiness like that before, but it shows what can be done when accumulating...
Thanks for the detailed reply, Lymond. First, I should say that while I am not new to the game, I haven't played much for years and am just...
Yes, this is what I'm doing. I might even switch to Free Speech, but it might still be hard to compete with a capital with 7 wonders each pumping...
I vassalised the Incas quite early in the game, since when they seem to have had little to do in their capital but build wonders. Now, Cuzco is...
Or you could just take the loss. :shrug: The poor AI is only scripted to try for a Culture win so in a way it's kinda nice to see it pull it off.
I've never used his UU but his traits are a superb combo.
I had Genghis doing something like this, except with quite a large continental empire. I surrounded his ports with destroyers, and he kept...

These blokes don't get the innate withdraw % that the other mounted units do, right? So whereas Flanking II works great on Horsies to emulate...
IIRC, community member DeepO wrote the odds calculation, after the original vanilla release had none, leaving most players bewildered and...
paulcarri, there are other ways of increasing the challenge and variety of a game apart from playing at the highest levels to make it harder to...
I'm quite happy to take a ban here, it's well worth it. I'm not sure who the real Nazi is here. :rolleyes:
Please! It's a HENGE not a HEDGE
Definitely. I've built a lot of Space Ships on normal size maps and haven't had much of a problem with spies.
Are these magic, flying intercontinental horses? Zerging pangea maps might be one way to win the game but it is perhaps not the most rounded...
I don't think you can build a lighthouse on a lake. I doubt there are too many lakes in the world with lighthouses, but I could be wrong. You...
If you have lots of coastal cities you might also have good trade routes if you know overseas civs. (With the Great Lighthouse on a water map you...
