Limit 1 Facepalm Per Turn
I voted happiness because it's the ceiling of how big your empire can be for everything else.
Yes, but it doesn't matter if you can mass produce swordsmen if your opponent already has infantry units...Outteching a production heavy opponent always seems to lead to that opponent's doom, in my experience.
Like I said in my original positing, Science has its hands in everything (maybe too much so) and seems to be what every other attribute is trying to get to. While it would be insane to completely ignore any attribute (they're all somewhat important), I've found ignoring Science is the quickest path to doom.
It's interesting to see what people in the poll are saying so far, though...
The poll has a basic flaw: ignoring the KEY resource (specially in Civ5, but true for all iterations).
Population is THE most important "attribute". From pops you get everything else, including food (which creates more pops).
which one was first? the chicken or the egg?![]()
