Yes, there's meant to be a patch coming out in June or early July, which will include Hotseat. No official word of DLC yet, although DLC accompanying the patch would follow precedent, and there have been reliable rumours of the possibility of Korea.

I'm playing Emperor/Continents/England/Epic. The question is, has anyone ever pulled off a six civ simultaneous raid? I've managed to take down the three civs on my starting continent (they had it coming!) fairly easily through hailing them with the arrows of my superpromoted longbowmen. There's six more civs on the next one.
I ask because I've managed to gain a considerable tech lead to replaceable parts while everyone else is just up to muskets at best. I can probably tech my way to mech infantry to get this lead even further or something.
Anyone ever managed to raid six civs capitals at once?

I've never tried, but I suppose it would be possible. Digging into my memory banks, I can rember taking 3 on one turn, but not 6.

What is considered "standard" size in numbers? I mean is it 80x50 etc. or what? trying to make custom map and want it to be of standard size...

Pretty sure that's set in the XML, so it should be easy to do with a mod. I doubt you can make such changes in a scenario based on vanilla though.
One of the later patches revamped the diplomacy system. Pacts of Secrecy were more or less replaced with Denunciations. It ends up working much the same, but with less convolution: if you denounce player A, who is the enemy of players B and C, player A will like you less; B and C will like you more. Before, if you would need to sign separate pacts of secrecy with B and with C both against A to get the same effect.

Does Egypt's UA boost National Wonders, too?

Considering that they are categorized as wonders, I'd say yes.
I have been CIV Ving for a year of better. I had a hell of a time getting Steam downloaded and running to play my first game because I'm still on dial-up. After I did get it, I was able to play offline with no problem. Recently, I made a mistake by running my RegistryFix. Since then I haven't been able to play at all. When I try to play offline, I get the message that the servers are too busy. When I try online, I get Steam and it just sits and does nothing. Then I have a hard time getting rid of Steam. Puter says Steam is not responding and wants to send an error message to MS. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

In the time I managed to produce 20 Mech Infantry, Gandhi had gone on a psychopathic rampage and basically went from controlling about 20% of his continent to 60%, and surpassed me in score. He took American, Egpyt, and Germany's capitals...so I only had three to deal with.
Though far far far more messy than I like, I did raid Gandhi's, Augustus' and Napoleon's capitals with a mass Mech Infantry rush. I actually lost several of them because the turn after I took Delhi, Gandhi droped 2 nukes on it.
I'd like to know which way each civilization(from the original Civilization) has to prevent players to expand too much? I asked it,because I want to know if the system to prevent ICS in Civ5 is in the right direction or in the wrong direction.

After 25 years I've won my first cultural victory (Ghandi, Prince, OCC). Heh, I know I should be better than prince but I have what you might call an inebriated style and Civ is my way of passing the time in the cave.
My question is how do I delay taking social policies until the tree I wish to prioritise becomes available?

First thing to try is to delete the local content of Civ. Right click on the game in the Steam games menu (not the desktop shortcut for the game) and select "delete local content." Then re-install Civ, either from disk if you have it, or through Steam download (quite a chore by dial-up, I know). Either way, you will then have to deal with being online long enough for Steam to update your game to the current patch. It's probably a good idea to at least start up Civ while still in online mode to make sure things work ok.
If that doesn't work, your best bet may be to uninstall Steam entirely and start from scratch. This should re-initialize all your registry settings. Not an elegant solution, but "nuke it from orbit" truly is often the only way to be sure.
As another suggestion, pick up a LAN card cheap (if you have friends like me, you probably know someone who has a couple old ones in a box somewhere), pop it in, and find someone to mooch a faster connection off of until you get it set up and running.
Good luck.

Quick question about city placement again.
This time, I got no iron near my capital. Not far from my capital is the natural wonder which gives +10 gpt. On one side, there's a 2 iron and a mountain but no river. On the other, there's a river.
Should I still try to settle by the river for even more gold? Or should I settle in between the iron and the natural wonder?

Thank you.

As long as there's enough food to work the tiles in the proposed city by the silver mountain then you should be fine. If not consider bribing a city state with iron as a temporary fix, and use the river city to fund your city state bribes.
