You should check out some of madscientists role playing games. He puts lots of "different" rules into place....
I think that is rare to pop a tech like that. Now, it does happen, I've popped HBR before. I've popped AH, BW, Writing, and IW before as well...
Double post.
Lol! I used to do the same thing. I'd always need the perfect grid of cities and it would frustrate me to no end when the AI would settle some...
I'm not sure if brokering makes it easier or harder, but I like trading so I leave it on. I also think some of you are over estimating how much...
My super Medic is completely dependent on my start. If I start with a scout he's my initial target. If I can keep him alive to get combat I +...
I think I was a bit light on starting cities, since I sort of changed mid stream at the start. Plus I was doing so well with beakers and made a...
This is a timely thread. I was playing a game last night (Emperor/Epic/Standard map) with Gilgy and had an awesome start: gold, jumbos and 6 FP...
Yeah, I just saw that thread. haven't watched the video's though. I never realized a GS bulb of Machinery was kind of possible. Looks like you...
I was playing around with some of these last night and was using China trying for Machinery. Emperor/Epic/Big and Small. One game I missed by...
Good point. Just missed that. I'm so used to making AH one of my first techs, I forgot Priesthood opens up Writing. Good catch.
I normally pick CoL b/c its a useful tech no matter what style you play and doesn't really take much thought to get it. That said, I've done CS...
One thing about moving up, it is definitely easier to trade techs b/c the AI gets them faster. So if possible avoid what you can trade for....
But it's so simple. All I have to do is divine from what I know of you: are you the sort of man who would put the poison into his own goblet or...
No it wouldn't, not if the the AI could competently pursue Culture, Space, or Diplo wins. There is no reason the AI couldn't routinely win via...
It's not one particular unit. Infact all early units have incredibly long life spans b/c of seige and bombardment. But this isn't a problem new...
I'll give it a shot. First off I'm not a Civ 5 hater, just a bit dissappointed. And just as a reference I also didn't like Civ 3 at first when...
What is a shame is there seems to be no distiguishing between different types of warring. There are: 1 - defensive wars (you were attacked,...
Oh, okay. I agree, they should be able to adapt. Unfortunately it seems they adapt to war much to quickly and whats doubly unfortunate is the...
Lack of cities is not an excuse for the AI to not be able to win. Humans can win in OCC, why can't an AI? We can even be stuck on a tiny...
