The Free Library from GL can be sold for 12 gold every turn.
The free castle from Himeji cannot though.
Needs players to check opponents gold every turn to make sure this isnt being exploited :scan: :mad:

Yeah the bug was found 1 day after release. Everyone should destroy the civ with the GL first until they patch it! Pretty lame i agree.
 
Well, now it has everyone up in arms too. They need to fix it fast. In probably 4/5 games I play I get the GL first (before turn 26) only ever losing it to Egypt with marble. Last night was playing with a guy named 'noob-seeking-missile' and he freaks sh*t on me for cheating saying my gold doesn't add up and posting logs. Funny thing is I sure as hell didn't cheat, in fact at the time I didn't even know about the bug. But then I tested it to confirm to him I hadn't cheated and sure as heck it does actually work. So what a big pile of steaming dog poo that is. How do you miss something like that in a patch?!

Anyways, I'm still going to be the first to get it 4/5 times and you can watch my gold all you want. :)
 
turn 26? wow thats early, how?
beeline writing, settle on hill, worker, GL, chops?
still seems early..
i usually get it in the 30's with gran, GL, free worker, chops
i got beaten to it by a pop ruin other day so i rushed him and captured it, you dont get the free lib in captured GL city, no lib at all, maybe a random raze of city or is this consistant?
 
I won't tell as i don't want it to spread but there's an exploit working only in multiplayer allowing GP generation every turn...

I can also sell my free lighthouse from Great Lighthouse every turn... I built that and the Great Library in the capital. But I can only sell the free lighthouse or free library in the same turn, not both buildings... need to build them in separate cities and try.

Somebody posted that whoever builds the Great Library gets dog-piled by all the other civs as a way to punish the possibility of the exploit... I bet there is more than one person who built the Great Library and then wondered why everybody DoW'ed him at once...
 
New Hot-fix released. No more GL bug!
 
Confirmed it too, all free sell bugs are fixed.

Now if they will just fix those Iroquois rushers... need to nerf the Mohawk by 1 point.

As it's right now, it's possible to resist it but it's hard. Once it's succesfully repelled or contained you're pretty much over the hard bit and you'll probably end up winning

If you have iron, the Iroquois are far enough away, you are Greece, etc. it is not a big deal but otherwise it is a bit OP I think. The proper nerf could be warriors need iron to be upgraded into Mohawks, Mohawks don't need iron but must be hard-built.

well no because that would then make the iroquois rather useless :)
because they would be vulnerable to other people rushing them with warriors upgraded into SM
