It's been a long time since I posted here. I tried to find my account from the mid 00s to recover but I've not idea what e-mail it was registered with... I'm curious to hear folks thoughts. I play civ consistently with a good friend. Despite being across the world, our civ time lines up...

Which graphics card is needed to play Civ VI on lowest settings, except strategic view? I am thinking at the ones available at e*** right now, used. I need to buy a new one and want to spend as few as possible, considering the scalped prices.

Hey all! Long time lurker, first time poster. I'm about 350 hours into Civ 6 and trying to improve. I'm primarily playing on Immortal difficulty. The biggest area of weakness for me is in domination victories. Specifically, I'm struggling with how much science to mix in. With the AI's extreme...

I've been playing Civ IV on and off for a long time, and I've improved a lot from when I started. When I found the forums I ghosted them for a while and even dug through the War Academy articles. I watched videos from Lain and AbsoluteZero as well, and those seemed pretty helpful. I tried to...

[Quick aside -- if this post isn't really located appropriately or anything, forgive me and let me know and I'll be happy to take it down or move it] tl;dr I play on Prince / Marathon / Huge / 18 Nations (try to stick to base game settings otherwise) and think I'm ignoring tons of aspects of...

I'm trying to create a larger scale version of the "Gifts of the Nile" map. I loved the scenario version, but it ends at turn 125 and I wanted to make it include territories farther south along the Nile and have a larger delta region. However, I know the scenario has special worldbuilding...

Am starting a new series (on Youtube) where people can send in their games to me and I will give my thoughts on how I would proceed with the game and what I think they have done right/wrong up until that point. Anyone interested feel free to send me your save files either by replying to this...

After seeing the announcement for the new civs I decided to fire up Civ6 again and try them out. I got this start as Maya and it feels like a potentially good start. I discovered Uluru very soon and I'm looking at that huge expanse of desert, hills and faith. But how can I actually use this...

I remember reading a post here that said something along the lines of: "In the late game you should be in WLTKD almost always" and wondering how is it possible to do that, given that even when I really try I can only get a couple of WLTKDs for the whole game. One game I had a bunch of cities...

Hi, I am quite new to Vox Populi and Civilization in general. For last month or so I have been exploring the mod (mostly on King and later on Emperor once I understood all the concepts). I have pretty good idea how to use Authority and Tradition as openers and where are their strengths and...

I know this is probably pretty easy difficulty compared to practically all the other games here, sorry about that xD I'm hovering around Warlord/Noble difficulty at the moment, testing out all the different things. Judging by my own game I PROBABLY could play Prince and be competitive (less...

Hey everybody, I'm new to Civ 5 modding and have been having trouble creating an actual working mod. I'm not concerned with it being the most amazing project or anything. My goal is small and personal. Make a mod that I can enjoy in singleplayer and mess around with. Been working on this...

Hey all. I just got into modding; I've made a few (as yet unpublished due to simplicity) small mods, and I decided to try to build a unit pack using Snafusmith's skins and models. Unfortunately, while I've figured out basic XML, how to change a unit's stats/promotions/class etc., I haven't...

I went into the game files and made world builder available to try it out a bit and while i’m still figuring out how to make anything playable I have encountered some issues where natural wonders and a few natural resources (most noticeably horses and oil but possibly more) will disappear...

I'm trying to keep on a level with the AIs re espionage, but two major civs have their entire espionage output on me - 9000EP between them with me in Renaissance. I'm trying not to use the slider because I'd like to gain ground in tech or at least not lose any more. So I've got all but three of...

Longish post coming up. I'm playing on Fractal (turned out to be a pangaea tho) with Churchill, on Prince difficulty and epic speed. On K-Mod (for anyone who hasn't played it: there really isn't too much of a difference, just much smarter and more aggressive AI, a different global warming...

I've been trying to win quickly and successively with a DV on Immortal level for a long time with not much luck. I have won a few times - like 3. I have looked at threads giving DV advice, and although I try to follow the recommended steps, I can't seem to catch a break. I watched an ACKEN...

Can anyone help me understand this more fully? All I know is the obvious rule of thumb: settling is better in the early game and bulb-ing is better in the late game, because a settled Academy will provide about 6:c5science:x [number of remaining turns], while a bulb-ed scientist provides yields...

I've been searching a long time for guides on how to get quick science victories, but I've never really gotten the gist of how to actually launch in the 1600s-1700s. I know generally how to play the game and win, and have about a 75% win rate on prince. I know which techs to generally go for...

Hello everybody, I have just won a game with the vox populi mod on deity difficulty and would like to share some impressions and advices. I played as the Inca, Bering Strait map, Deity, Epic pace. I prefer epic to standard because you spend more time in different eras. Bering Strait because I...
