Also Civ "fish" can't just swim away. They're anchored to a space on the map;Lava + salt water = sulfuric acid.

Umm, how exactly does a volcano wipe out all the fish in the sea? Just had my fish resource wiped out. Edit: Though after repairing the pillaged fishing boats I'm still getting 4 food and 5 gold. So even though the icon is missing, I seem to be getting full use out of the fishing boats.
I'm not an expert on tea, but I do know that volcanic soil in Ethiopia, Indonesia, and Central America is wonderful for coffee.I've had a volcano fertilize some Tea several times in the same game. Mmmmm Volcanic Tea.
Lava rock isn't an ideal construction material, though tufa can be pretty good after a few thousand years!Someone posted they lost stone yesterday

Also, it had a gentle eruption two turns in a row. Only on setting 3
Anyone notice if the Great Merchant who improves diplomatic visibility no longer allows you to do listening post operation? I find my spies no longer able to do listening post operation, and I'm not sure why. Unless it's not available later in the game for some reason.
On the bright side Vesuvius erupted a few turns after the previous screenshot and lowered Rome by 6 population. Sweet.

yeah I've made a habit of harvesting all bonus resources/ chopping all around volcanos. I watched a lot of potato leading up to GS release and he loves chopping absolutely everything so I've been doing a lot more of that. I thought I was chopping a lot before I watched him and realized that some people do not leave any natural land around even on CVs, they just plant trees later lol.The harvest able resources being gone was mentioned in the streams. Basically it is forest, jungle and bonus resources, as the terrain gets "changed" to volcanic soil.
Then there's my favorite oolong: Iron Goddess of Mercy.Or alternatively, ready-grown lapsang souchong![]()
It's an excuse to drag the science victory into the Future Era, but I can't say it adds anything enjoyable to the experience.The change to Science Victory seems pointless to me. The 50 lightyears thing is just adding turns on for no real reason. If you get to the stage where you're chasing lightyears then you've probably won already.
Am I wrong?
Agreed, it feels like a pointless drag-out. I would say "it gives other civs the opportunity to kill you before you go to space", but even in human vs human games if you are that far ahead in tech, it'll be quite hard to do that.It's an excuse to drag the science victory into the Future Era, but I can't say it adds anything enjoyable to the experience.![]()
