Hi everyone!


If I'm playing as England (for example) and I have cities on different continents, Like continent A (original), B and C; intercontinental policy cards (colonial offices and taxes) will only apply to the cities on B or C.

My doubt is: What happens if an enemy capture my capital on A? If the new capital goes to B then only C and A will receive the bonus? As B is my new original continent?

And then, if I reconquer my original capital on A, B will still my original continent or it will return to A??

Thank you very much!

I understand that usually the continent where you found your first city - your original capital, gets to be your home continent forever, for the whole game that is. Even if you've been banished from it completely, your original capital stays there, even if occupied and not controlled by you, and it is still considered your home continent for those cards purposes, so it does not flip all around the place.

Unless you are Phoenicia, perhaps, and move your original capital? I can't say about that, haven't played them in ages. And I've seen reports that due to a bug the original capital can now be razed, so I'm not sure what happens in that case.

Repair the shrines then

I should have clarified - I did repair the buildings, but the belief still didn't work. I also now have another game where I spread my own religion to another civ's city, then captured it, but the follower belief isn't working (that one is work ethic). I think maybe a bug? I put that one in the bug forum as well, but wondering if anyone else has run into issues with follower beliefs and capturing cities.
 
Is there any way to check who has the highest possible score?
I wonder if anyone got to 10000 before?

So, I started up a new civ game to try out a few things before the next DLC/patch and noticed some oddities... first, the game is in early renaissance now, and apparently none of the AIs have made com hubs and industrial zones yet apparently as they are not getting any appropriate GP points... is that normal?

Second, Hammurabi asked me to be his friend, I said No, he said like "I don't wanna be your friend" and then we still were friends...wat? I didn't tell him to stop asking, just like "Not this time." This happened twice now so I'm pretty sure it wasn't a misclick. Is this a known issue?

Edit: Also, I forgot... how does the era score overflow in dramatic ages work again? I had so much overflow in that medieval dark age. D: It makes me worry a biiit about future golden ages.

Yes, I see a lot less AI CHs, until quite late into the game.

Yes, apparently Friendship dialog is bugged now, just hit the last option, if you don't want friendship.

Larger overflow makes your loyalty pressure from citizens stronger.
 
It seems that the game that has gone quite wonky (saves are getting corrupted, settings are changed after turns), so I want to reinstall my game copy. Does anybody know if the Hall of Fame would survive the reinstall? Not that it matters at all, but I don't want to delete stats if not absolutely necessary.

Thanks in advance.
 
Where to put relics as Congo? Palace, Mont St. Michel, St. Basil's Cathedral, the bank of the GM with the two art slots... Did I miss anything?
 
There's also the Apadana wonder (although that's in a DLC) and the National History Museum (which is available fairly late in the Modern era). If you're playing with Secret Societies, the Voidsingers turn your Monuments into Old God Obelisks, which can hold anything - they synergize extremely well with the Kongo.
 
Thank you, so, I should have picked Voidsingers... Although I only got St. Michel because of the vampire castle.

Another question: is there any way to claim a hero which was claimed by someone else first later on?

Rise and Fall v. Gathering Storm. I currently only have the base game. I'm thinking about getting Rise and Fall, but wondering if I get GS instead can I disable a subset of the features and get back to the same game as RS? I know GS contains all the functionality as RS; I don't know if I want everything in RS but I might later. (like the change to how strategic resources work, and natural disasters) Both are on sale right now for about $10 and I want to get one of them. RS looks like a better game but I don't know. I know each package has different new civs and natural wonders etc and I don't really care about that.
 
Hello! When the January patch comes out? I know it's the January 28th, but what time?

If you own GS and not R&F, you can only play with GS or not; no option to play with R&F but not GS (if that's what you're asking).

I recommend GS because it added Maori, my favorite civ! I don't care for any RF civs. GS also added Diplomatic Victory, but good luck getting it without building the Statue of Liberty...which comes from R&f. XD I see what they did there...
 
Is there a mod that just reveals on the Secret Society governor promotions in the same way the other governors' are shown?

Yes, that's what I was asking; if GS could emulate R&F by turning off some of its features. Thank you. (it wasn't the answer I was hoping for)

Which is the better game? :)
