Well hello there everybody. I've been playing the Civ series since the first one and have really enjoyed them all. I've been playing Civ4 a lot latly trying to get better at it inspired by the ALC series, which are some of the best AARs of any game on any messageboard, a real hat tip to all involved. Basically I want to try one of those because gosh darnit, I just can't seem to get myself beyong Prince. All the lower levels I can win any kind of victory pretty easily, but my play is so inconsistent on Prince that the only way I seem to ever win is a Space Race. The rest of the AIs that are left usually always end up ganging up against me. So, that's where the rest of you come in. I'd like to play a game in a smaller series of turns than the ALCs, probably have twenty game posts in all or so. The game settings I'll be using are the following:
Map : Fractal
Speed : Epic
Difficulty : Prince
Special Settings : Choose Religion(I like this one, adds a neat flavor)
As for which Civ I will play I would like to throw that out to the board. I usually play as a Financial or Industrious Civ and I wonder if I'm not playing them correctly or lean too heavily on those traits to the failure of the Civ's second trait. So lemme get a few suggestions on what you all think and then I'll probably roll a dice among the suggestions.
