So here's the deal. I'm not a fantastic Civ player and I'm not great at keeping to schedules. But I want to give storywriting one more shot. So I'm going to be playing as America with the simple goal of getting all of the UHVs (Unique HIstorical Victories). I'm willing to savescum to a certain...

Hey guys, this is just two (7) hours' work culminating in the addition of some extra music into all of the ages in modless Civilization 4 BTS that I suddenly realised I wanted in my game. It's all Civilization 5 music, and I spent most of those two hours making sure they fit in for the most...

I don't know if this is the best place to put this thread, heck, I don't even know if it's the right one, but I figured I'd ask it here since it is the one I assume is the most active and, well, I guess that just seemed comfortable to be. When Civilization V came out a lot of people loved it...

I saw people having trouble handling a big Royal Expeditionary Force (REF), not getting enough liberty bells, or winning.
