I believe it's some leftover confusing text from an alpha/beta/1.0 version...
Annexing does not alter the speed of which you generate great people in any way.

After the NOv 2012 patch the fall of rome scenario now requires the recruitment or enrollment feature for western rome to be on a scaled basis similiar to the change in the "prize ship" promotion but while the prize ship change might be an improvement for regular games it makes the fall of rome scenario (which is pretty hard to begin with at advance levels) impossible and no way to appropriately strategize like in previous games-- so my question is can the scaled version of prize ships promostion be removed from from the fall of rome scenario or somehow changed-- did anyone else notice this change? it can't be what they intended as it makes western rome unplayable?

Do forts have any effect on units with the no defensive terrain bonuses promotion stationed in one?

Does the AI have problems sending great merchants into city-states to get gold from trade missons? One of the AI players has sent it's GM to a city-state near me, but it's just hanging out by the borders, not actually going in. Anyone else noticed issues with this?
This is driving me nuts. I believe in earlier versions of the game there was a keyboard shortcut that woke up all units asleep and one that made all units on alert "wake up" for new instructions. Is there a keyboard shortcut in G&K? Or am I dreaming and there never was one on any version??
2 random questions:
1. If a world wonder is built in a non-cap and that city gets razed, can that wonder be built again? Example, I take York from England and it has Statue of Zeus in it but I raze the city. Can I (or any AI) now build it?
2. If, say, there are 5 max religions in a game and all have been founded can you found a new religion when one of those 5 gets removed from the game through complete domination? Example: I was recently in a game where I had my own religion but I took out a civ and converted their cap (that is now my city) to my religion. That religion no longer has a presence in the game. Can the AI now found another religion?
Im leaning toward 'no' on both accounts but I'm curious if anyone has any verifications or anything.

No. A world wonder once built cannot be rebuilt under any circumstances. I've actually tried out this one. The AI built some wonder, I think it was Machu Pichu in their second city, I razed it. Poof! Its gone. xD
Again, no. It just disappears I guess. Haven't checked this though.
thanks, akashsara.
Just popping in again with a question I"ve been trying to find the answer to for months!
I'd really like to dump the contents of a Civ V save out to a file so I can look at the map, civs, world history, etc. Is there a way to read the files like this? Any tool I can use?

I don't think a lot of people in General Discussions know about this. Maybe the modding section can help you?

So i'm playing my first ever Civ V game and I've just entered the Industrial Era. I spent a lot of the game figuring out mechanics and how stuff works, and while I didn't do terrible I'm currently in third place (out of 4 civs) and struggling to maintain my gold/happiness above zero. I'm still ahead in science so I could conceivably go for a science victory, but is it worth just scrapping everything and starting over with a new game?
For context I'm in turn 280 or something like that, I'm playing continents, I'm allied with Egypt on my continent who's been cranking out wonders every other turn, and the other continent has been completely dominated by Japan. I was able to take out America in early/mid game but I think I have too many cities (8) so I'm finding it difficult to stay profitable/happy with all the required maintenance and unhappiness from population size.

Are you having fun with this game, or just gutting out the consequences of choices you made earlier that you now think may have been suboptimal? If the former, play on. If the latter, there is always something to be learned in a late-game struggle, but you should also feel free to scrap your initial "how does all this work?" game and start a new game where you can put to good use all that you've learned.
I'm kinda having fun I guess. I do lament some of my dumber decisions (my neighbor sent an Islamic great prophet to nuke the founding city of my religion, and I accidentally stamped out my own religion by building an inquisitor in the now Islamic city lol...), but I'm still sort of having fun. I guess I'll keep playing on and see how I feel.
yes, i think so. if you use the SDK (the free mod tool from steam) you can make random maps of any size with World Builder. but since I have never tried to make a gigantic map im not sure what the max size is capable of.
if you've never used it before, when logged into Steam go to your Library and use the dropdown arrow and select Tools. It should be listed as Sid Meiers Civ SDK (or something very similar). If you havent installed it you will have to install it but after that just open it. There is an opening menu for 4 things, one of them being WorldBuilder. That is the map editor. from there just mess around to figure it out. there are tutorial out there to help. they can build scenarios, maps, etc.
How many turns does a game generally take if you play it on the Normal speed? I just started a new game (my first game ended up being unsalvageable) and am wondering if I'm going to have to get through another 300+ turns to beat it. I'm playing against 7 other civs in continents.
