Hi folks.
Picked up civ2 again recently, I find it much more satisfying that civ4. Having just got back into it (i played it on and off a few years back) i'v been playing it more seriously and am currently in my first game on King
Wondered if you could enlighten me to a few things I couldn't find out trawling through the various strategy forums around the place.
How many cities can you build before the number of cities affects happiness? I know somewhere i found a chart that showed how many cities you could build depending on map size and/or govornment type, but i'v lost the link.
Is there anywhere that will tell me what resources i will get from the city square when i build a city on the various different terrains? Having tinkered with civ4 a bit, i assumed all the squares would provide equal resources but it seems its not the case.
It seems building roads to my capital reduces corruption, but i read some vague notes on how to make this work properly. Anyone explain this? Also, do rivers count as roads in this respect? As you can't build roads on rivers at the start, i wondered if they counted.
Also, should i get the +1 trade bonus from building a road on a square if that square contains a river?
Thanks folks, and i look forward to having a go at the GOTM (and getting my ass handed to me
)
