my little roman empire! what do yall think :S
playing with my mod that never advances from the Ancient era but gives all the religions + civics. plus ethnically diverse artstyles (units + buildings). and some more. difficulty I think is Noble or Warlord on here. it's my first game that takes more than 300 rounds
so the first one I didn't stop yet.Egypt, Greece and Malinese are my vassals. Egypt and Greece through capitulation (I love that..corner them to 1 city and force into submission or raze to death), and Malinese wanted protection because... no they just sucked and needed somebody to help out, which i didn't do. but now they're stuck with my demanding self. I force them to give me all their gold, well at least until lately, they decline all of that since a few bunch of turns. I took most of their resources and above 1000 gold previously tho.
yeah, I make a fortune (for me) each turn with above 500 gold everytime..so I guess I can buy practically everything, except that ALL the leaders, except malinese, even my capitulation vassals are furious towards me. I can't do anything with them
but that's because I often declared war and made arrogant demands. it gave me a good bit of gold so it was kinda worth it. I am still trading for gold my resources although they wouldn't trade any of theirs.

I don't have the pic, but I was paratrooping from Island to Island on an Archipelago map and my paratrooper kept walking across the water with a calvary next to him. BtS is really bugged up...
Yes, I have had a unit walk across the water which had just come from a transport. It might have walked from the place it boarded the transport, to the square it departed the transport.

If I have a paratrooper drop onto a transport, they will first run across the water to the ship and disappear, and then they parachute down with the normal animation.
Hang on, I'll see if I can't snag a couple of screenies.

Here's your man, trying to win a staring competition
Spoiler :
Damn!, (may be repeated, but I haven't noticed this post) Joao's medal has the castille-leon (a.k.a. Izzie's country) heraldry!! (up: castle, lion; down: lion, castle)
Therefore either:
- Joao stole it from his "beloved" neighbour.
- Or Joao is claiming castille should be annexed to portugal (altough I think it was his father, Alphonse V, who tried it the most)
- Or this leaderhead was intended to be Phil' the II, altough then he should have been dressing strictly in black...
Well the banknote below confirms he's joao. So, ¿what is he doing with one of Izzie's necklaces?

And this is unique to BTS because ... ?

A few GPs, good civics and access to some resources can give your city a lot of production =)
Offtopic, but I guess that max. production bonus is (for water units):
- Ironworks+Coal+Iron - +100%
- Heroic Epic - +100%
- Factory+power - +75%
- Military Academy - +50%
- Bureaucracy+capital - +50%
- Drydock - +50%
- Forge - +25%
- Police State - +25%
- Shale Plant (Japan) - +10%
- State Property - +10%
That makes total of +495%! Your 25 hammers * 5,95 would mean 148 hammers (I guess they round down), which would allow you to build any ship on Normal speed in 1-2 turns!

Actually, since you can only have a max of 2 national wonders per city, you couldn't fit the IronWorks, Heroic Epic and Military Academy in at the same time. Thus, the maximum would be +445% for water units and +395% for land units.
The military academy isn't a National Wonder.

Didn't you notice this: "max. production bonus is (for water units)"?
Clearly, I didn't.

I'm not sure this is unique to BtS, but I thought it was kinda funny:
Note the date and my research target. Now, check out the helpful tip. I have Copper! I can build strong melee units! YAY!
Later that year, the American army refitted its infantry with the new M-3 copper-barrelled rifles. This move was not a military success, but it was a significant step forward for martial fashion. The officer in charge of procurement -- General Christopher Lowell -- released the following statement: "The new copper rifles might not be everyone's favorites, but I think they strike that delicate balance between traditional modern and the unexpected."
Shortly after releasing this statement, Gen. Lowell was re-assigned to supervise the redecoration of the Arctic Naval Base, and the American army went back to using the old steel rifles.

Hehe, so was that the first time in the game you gained access to copper?!

Indeed it was. I had a no-metals start, sadly. I had to beeline Construction and use an Elephant rush to secure Iron from the Vikings. Once I had Iron, I didn't bother looking for Copper.
Fast-forward to the 20th century. As I was cruising toward a cultural victory, I whacked a couple of barb cities that had popped up on an island off of my coast. One of those cities came with its own Copper mine. As soon as the city came out of revolt and the borders popped, I got Copper! YAY!
