Quick Questions and Answers

Drat and bother. I guess Soviet Russia will have to tweak its current Foreign Policy.

What about City-States conquering cities? I've seen this in one of my 'Winter is Coming' games. Is it possible in the BNW standard game? If I gift Mogadishu 20 tanks, can they take a city?

 

I think you can gift an aircraft to a CS using the dialogue if it's the only unit in a city (I think I've done it). However it's possible it just disappeared and I didn't notice.

 

Yes, but it will take them about that much support!

Thanks, I will have to try that. That won't work for gifting to an AI (obviously).

 

I just tried this. Yes, I could donate the triplane (it was the only unit in my city). Three turns later I got the 5 points of influence. But the triplane did not show up in the CS.

 

No, sadly. He just peaced out with Mongolia so I'm making some units, pretty sure his coming for me.

Spoiler :

 

Can AI delete units? I have never seen it done, even if the AI is at like -500 gpt.

 

If a civ you have not met gets eliminated, can you tell?

 

You will get a notification that an unmet civ has lost their capital. That early in the game, probably it means the unmet civ is gone. Or will be gone by the time you meet the AI that killed them off.
Once the WC is founded, you will be able to tell that an AI is missing.
Once you find their old capital, you should be able to tell what civ it was.

 

Can I raze captured city-state? Thank you!

 

Thanks for the answer to my last question Beetle.

I'm building Globe Theatre and so is Ethiopia. I sent a spy and I see that, as it stands, we will both finish in 5 turns. Am I correct in thinking they will get it as it is their turn next? If so, should I abandon the attempt to build it?

BTW, I don't think there is any way to knock off a turn from my build. Bit annoying as we both got printing press on the same turn and have similar production, but their discount (455 vs 500 at emperor) gives them the advantage.

Thanks in advance.

 

Great suggestion thanks! I tried it and they switched production to... a cargo ship

 

Where do unit mods go? I tried in the MODS folder but that doesn't seem to be doing the trick. I play with a Mac app store BNW and am trying to use unit packs by danrell.

 

Might be a stupid question, but are you actually playing through mods menu? You can't just click Single Player from main menu, you have to choose Mods, select which mods you want from menu, Next-> Single Player.

 

I don’t think some of my built-in map scripts are running correctly. I suspect that one of my downloaded maps (HB, Terra Incognito) is interfering.

I think there there is something like a “verify assets” command someplace. Where is that?
Or am I likely to have better luck just deleting the maps scripts I have downloaded.

 

A legit question. I have enabled MODS and am able to run via MODS button any mod I might put into the MODS folder, except for units. I never see them in the MODS menu "No Mods Installed" although they're in the MODS folder. My test files have been 'ancient unit pack Rome', 'battle galley', and 'Songhai unit pack'.
