civics you dont use

[mostly_harmless]

Serfdom is the only one that I have never used - my main problem is always having too many workers with nothing to do. All the others have their uses.

 

[MisterBarca]

I never used environmentalism,pacifism(I always play with either theocracy or organized religion),police state.

Same here. I also rarely use Serfdom.

 

[Commie333]

i never use environmentalism, free religion, or any of the economy choices xcept state property

environmentalism is useless

oh and police state is THE BEST

 

[Gumbolt]

I never need serfdom as my workers have normally done job already.

 

[kristopherb]

never used mercantilism, caste system or slavery (unless im in a deseperate war)

yes i agree slavery i allawys adopt i like the optoin

welcome to civfanatics
come to the dark side luke

 

[jkp1187]

I've used all of the civics, but the one I use the least is: STATE PROPERTY. If I'm going for a military win, it's usually over before Communism is available. If not, I want the benefits that Free Market have!

 

[Aussie_Lurker]

Mostly Mercantilism and Caste System. The first because by then I am almost always in contact with other civs-and the trade income is simply to valuable to give up (now, if this civic gave a bonus to the maintainance of far-flung cities, I MIGHT consider it, but not merely for a free specialist). The second because my cities can rarely support unlimited specialists anyway-without starving-so its better just to stay on slavery UNTIL you can get Feudalism!
As far as pointless civics which I only change for the SAKE of changing? Well that would be slavery and Hereditary Rule. The first because the costs of pop-rushing are usually much too high to make it worthwhile and the second because I rarely have happiness issues-so these are two which I feel need to be REALLY improved.

[DigitalBoy]

I don't use Universal Sufferage (yes, I suck), Nationhood, or Environmentalism.

 

[wkndwrrr]

I never (or rarely) use Caste system, Beauracracy, or Theocracy.

 

[Lord GS-41]

Nationhood, Caste System, Pacifism.

 

[Columbkille]

Caste System and Pacifism.

 

[alpha wolf 64]

I'm confused as to why so many do not use merchantilism. I use it as soon as I get it to get the free specialists. And every time I've ever switched to free market, my gold goes down and techs take longer. What am I doing wrong, because I think merchantilism is the best?

 

[Tee Kay]

Never: Mercantilism, Environmentalism

 

[lordofcivs]

Just don't use Environmentalism. All the other civics are eligible to be adopted in my game, depending on the situation. I never play with Spiritual Trait.

 

[BadHorsie]

I've never used Nationhood or Police State, and have only used Environmentalism and Hereditary Rule a couple of times when I first started playing.

 

[BadHorsie]

I never (or rarely) use Beauracracy

Really? Never tried a CS Slingshot?

 

[Junglecutter]

Never used pacifism and caste system

 

[Desert-Fox]

Police state, serfdom, state property, environmentalism.

 

[TheBoatman]

serfdom, others all come to use on higher diffs when happiness and health pains and you cannot build magnificent cities with all those buildings

 

[ulsterman88]

i dont think i have ever used police state in any game. And unless I have a small empire i rarely use Bureaucracy
