Multiplayer: Extremely Basic Small Tips
Disclaimer: Use these Tips at your own risk. Your popularity and morality plunges to rock bottom after successfully applying these "fiendish" tactics.
1) If
- your nearest neighbour who is 4 to 8 tiles/squares from your home city and
- your neighbours happens to be
Greek
German
Russian
Persian
Mongolian
Aztec
Move your warrior near to edge of their border and declare war the next turn. You should be able to take their Home City within the next 2 turns. Their scout is only 1 Strength and their Home City Def % is only 0%.
2) Anyone that founds an early religion like Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism means that they have spent around 5 to 11+ tech turns on religious techs. You can choose to declare war on them and capture their workers, station troops near their horses, iron, copper or pillage whatever improvements that they have.
3) Place scouts and troops near your nearest neighbour. If you happen to see his worker or settler outside of border or directly at the edge of the border, declare war, and destroy/capture the worker/settler.
4) Park troops near hills/forests which are directly next to an enemy city and reinforce them. They serve as scouts and enslavers of settlers and workers.
5) Declare war on your nearest neighbour which is already engaged in open war with another different player.
6) Never open the Diplomacy screen with any player until you're sure that the player doesn't pose any threat.
7) Never ever attack a city without Siege Units when your Enemy uses
- Archers
- You see the 20% and above City Defensive Bonus
8) Try Pillaging the roads(provided that there are no rivers) instead of the mines if the defence at the designated mine is too strong.
9) Never mass Early Mounted troops against a Greek enemy once he has access to copper and iron for more than 5 turns.
10) Use F9 to constantly spy at the Wonders that your enemy is building. If your enemy player builds 2 or more consecutive wonders roughly continuously, attack him.
11) Never whine or complain when some other player has the upperhand. This will instead goad the player into making his 1st priority in life to finish you off and inevitably attract the attention of other players. Think of scavengers in real life.
12) In Ladder games, private chat is forbidden and chatting about vital ingame information is a violation of the rules. However, there's no way to monitor private chat if you're the 3rd Party.
