I posted this on reddit, but someone suggested I should put it on this forum instead so this is just a copy paste.
Currently I'm playing a game as Celtia in C2C, at prince or nobe level (can't remember which) on eternal speed. I'm new to civ4, but have played lots of civ5 so I was able to grasp most of the core concepts pretty easily. Anyway I haven't yet played enoughciv4 to know if my issues are specific to the mod or just standard noob teething problems, so those who don't have the mod might well be able to help out.
Basically, I am ahead in most aspects until about 12000 BC, at which point I meat the italian empire who reside on a nearby continent. Their score suggests they are significantly ahead of us - probably due to their size - but I don't really mind as long as they dont bother us for the time being (its hardly like I'm going to load all my clubmen and axemen onto canoes to attack someone on the other side of the world).
However, after this pointeverything starts going downhill. Not like everyone declaring war on me or anything like that, but rather I slowly become aware that (even if we ignore the italians) that I'm losing my tech lead, militarily my wars grind to a halt, as my troops cannot gain the upper hand, My capital - once the biggest city in the known world - is being overtaken by almost everyone elses. My score often doesn't go up when I finish a tech, whether its me getting one I missed earlier, or one seemingly miles ahead.
Is there anything, either in civ4 or C2C that can cause a slowdown in civ growth?
