First of all I need an Advance civ 5 expantion pack. Civ 5 is simplyfied compared to civ 4 in ways that hasnt improved the single player game. 1 unit per hex was intriging at first but since the computer players can´t handle it well enough I want it removed but that is to ask to much i fear.
But to my topic. Trade has always been the worlds mayor way to get moeny and should be so in Civ 5 as well. I think the current traiding in Civ 5 is realy broken. Only option is to trade resourses which the computer player seldom wants and never ask for. They only as the human player to give away resourses. Sen ding one or two great merchants is not doing it.
At least I would want the trade routes of cive 4 back, which gave gold and other things in mods. They seemed to require acces, based on like tech for river or ocean trading but it was not vicible on the map or possible to blockade other players trading. It was possible to ask other players to breake open borders with a second player wich wasnt too bad when i think of it.
But the game I played which had the most fun trading system so far must be Medival total war 2. I had great moments when I played as the Venitians and spread my fleet over all the mediterians. And it wass quite simple. Trade value of area is dependant on population and which resources that area and the area it was trading with got. It would be a great improvement in Civ if we had to build fleets to defend vicible trade routs on the oceans. Small wagons folowing road or river trade routes would also be great. To send out troops to block those or kill the blockers would be fun.
A few more diverse trade resoures would be needed but that shouldnt be to hard to fix. But when you are at it redo the hole happines system and make happines citybased as before that is more fun.
