Okay, this one may or may not be hard, depending on your skill in math (particularly graphing).

If these two points {(0,1) and (-1,-1)} are put in slope-intercept form, the slope and y-intercept represent the A.D.M of what unit (where rise over run equals attack over defense and the y intercept equals movement)?

 

[rcoutme]

[homeyg]

Correct!! Your turn.

 

[rcoutme]

Name each attribute and the starting tech that it gives (e.g. Scientific) in Vanilla Civ

 

[LLXerxes]

If for traits, I have some sort of answer.
Scientific: Free tech at the beggining of each new age, and cheaper scientific research city improvements. Starts game with Bronze Working
Expansionist: More lucrative barbarian tribes, can produce scouts. Starts game with pottery and one scout
Religious: One turn anarchy, cheaper religious improvements, start with ceremonial burial
Militaristic: Cheaper militaristic city improvements, unit upgrades occur more often, start with warrior code.
Commercial:I kinda forget this one Uh... I think it is Large cities produce more commerce, lower corruption, start the game with alphabet.
Saved the best for last,
Industrious: Larger cities produce extra sheilds, workers work faster, start with Masonry.
I hope this is all right. I spent 4 minutes working on it!

 

[rcoutme]

LLXerxes: Looks complete to me. Go ahead.

 

[LLXerxes]

Wahoo! Party! I got one right!
Enough spamming, let's get to the question!
What's the most expensive wonder that can become obselete?
Hmm?

 

[Gainy]

the Great Library

 

[LLXerxes]

the Great Library

Yup!
The Great Library at 400 shields.
The question goes to you, Gainy Bo

 

[Doc Holliday]

Temple of Artemis for C3C is 500 shields

 

[Gainy]

But this thread is about Vanilla civ, and Vanilla civ only

What is the most expensive UU? And how much does it cost?

 

[homeyg]

Okay, we got a tie between the American F-15 and the German Panzer for 100 shields.

 

[Gainy]

Indeed It was a badly phrased/trick question. Your go.

 

[homeyg]

Wow! I'm 2 for 2 today...

Here's an easy one: true or false, there are the same amount of bonus resources as strategic resources. No cheating!!!

 

[Tomoyo]

Depending on the size of the map as well as the amount of players, it varies.

If you mean different kinds, then there are 6 kinds of bonus and 8 strategic, so false.
