Hi Civ Fans
I love the Vox Populi mod - Have played it several times and almost always win the game when playing King difficulty.
I´ve now tried several games on Emeperor level, but always lose due to being an attacked by an AI who has MASSIVE amounts of units.
One game I played shoshone Indians. I had taken down the Atzecs, and had an army of highly leveled units and several GGs. The Ottomans declared war. I immediately threw down two citadels, constructed roads to the citadels so that I could reinforce my units and moved my remaining GG to the battle site. For decades my soliders fought with perfect discipline not losing a single unit while mass-slaughtering the invaders... But alas in the end it wasnt enough, the stream of units coming in was just never-ending.
Last games I played Marokko and was attacked by Songhai. Kabash+Citadel+road+GG didn´t do the trick for me.
In both games I was technologically even or a litlle ahead of my opponents.
How do you guys manage war on emeperor level and above?
On Vanilla playing this defensive style of warfare always worked really well, but since the unit-upgrade systems has changed so much I feel all the good defensive upgrades are gone. Instead the flanking bonus gives a big advantage when you have more units than your opponent - Which further strengthens the AI.
Also OP upgrades like the double ranged shot has been nerfed - which is a good thing, I just dont know how to handle the AI when I cant expolit this anymore.
Looking forward to hearing your answers
