Interesting Screenshots

Plus, all of their laborers have been assigned to unimproved tiles.

 

[choxorn]

Yeah, you'd think they'd be smart enough to move OFF THE CRATERS at least!

 

[Sweetchuck]

Craters go away once you improve the tile, I think. They don't have any effect other than visual.

I haven't had the opportunity to improve anything I've cratered yet - but you can improve that rockpile that's left behind when you waste a city with no effect (the workers use the same amount of turns to build a road, and once it's done - the road appears and the rocks vanish).

 

[choxorn]

I think the effect doesn't go away until you hit "clear damage".

 

[Turner]

Not sure, but I've had damage cleared by roading the tile. I never bothered to check if it was a problem, but I don't ever recall looking at a city that's suffered from damage and said "Hmm...that tile should be producing more." It's unusual enough that I probably would remember.

 

[sercer88]

Are you sure the "damage" wasn't just a city ruins site? City ruins sites clear up as soon as you road them, or irrigate, or mine...but craters do not.

 

[Turner]

No, I'm not sure.

 

[Bartleby]

I may be wrong, but I think that craters will yield one red shield, just like pollution.

Craters go away once you improve the tile, I think. They don't have any effect other than visual.

I'm pretty sure this is incorrect. Craters will reduce shields from the affected square, I think.

 

[Bartleby]

Once you've cleaned craters the tile is back to nomal, just like pollution.

My first trip into the multi-millionnaire club.

Now if only I would have had culture flip on I would've been making my first HOF submission .

I'm not sure if I could've been making more money if I sold off all factories/nuke plants/manufacturing plants. I figure since I was making wealth in all cities it was better this way.

 

[Bartleby]

Nicely done. I like your shrubberies, I do that too.
But the wasted tiles make me wince--I'm a hardcore milker.

 

[choxorn]

Why has the game still not ended in 2050?

 

[Bartleby]

You can continue past 2050, just choose "lemme play another couple of turns" in the Game Over dialogue.

 

[Aabraxan]

It looks like he just hasn't ended the 2050 turn. I've never played a game to 2050, but wouldn't the game be scheduled to end when Nitfan finishes the turn on which the screenshot was taken?

 

[Nitfan]

Yes the game ended and I hit lemme play a couple more turns because I wanted to take the screenie.

As far as the wasted space I was trying avoid overcorrupting my cities since I was in commie. The OCN is right around 200 and you get a big time hit in corruption if you go over. This was actually my first milk game so I was a newbie in that respect, I'll definitely use all the space next time I spend 200+ hours on a game. 34xxx wasn't bad for a first attempt, I should've completed the conquest faster than I did but I lost a little focus on what I was doing for about 200 years, haha.

I had over 800 slaves so there was nothing left to do but be a tree hugger .

 

[Bartleby]

Good point about the corruption. Communism is uncharted territory for me.

800 slaves--blimey.

 

[Nitfan]

Yeah I found out that continents is no good for high score games. The logistics of getting ~550 Modern Armor, 25 armies, and about 200 artillery across the ocean turned out to be a problem. I didn't want to go with any less than I did because sumeria had taken over about 75% of the other continent. Good old Deity AI with 600 MI + tows and un-upgraded infantry in huge metros made for some razing fun, hence all the slaves.

They had actually switched back to democracy from fascism. It was quite amusing when I investigated a city after opening the offensive. Needless to say they had 2 turns of no production immediately after.

This is very confusing. Although i did edit game rules (nothing to do with terrain or resources) and made it so a few more things were avalible, but this was completely random and i never knew it could happen, fish on grasslands?

PS-that is 326 by 326 size map, and it "had" everyone on it, some i killed.
