The "OMG! Look what happened in DoC!" Thread

I've noticed the independents are much tougher nuts to crack in 1.18. Crossbows in regions without iron (SE Asia, West Africa), arquebusiers in regions without gunpowder (New World), and now riflemen in the 17th century. To be fair, you are researching microbiology...

Probably they still that tech from me. And many others tech too))

I remember Ronald Reagan dropping a nuke on Grenada to kill those six machine guns.

How do those requirements work for them anyway? Do they just get resources from their cities on the other side of the world?

I thought the holy mountain was only allowed to be in the Canadian arctic

 

[AOS9001]

I've never actually completed the Holy Mountain. The peak is always in Alaska, southern Chile, or the Siberian tundra.

Edit: oh my god, you jinxed me.

Spoiler :

I don't ever want to see this quest again.

Is there a way to customize the target tile of the Holy Mountain quest so that it's always either within or next to the player's historical area?

Well the problem is you would often control large amounts/ all of your historical area, and the holy mountain won't show up on tiles you or anyone else already controls. That's why it so often shows up in the New World. It seems silly but when you consider the requirement that no one can have cultural control over it and there are so few American civs, and how many peaks there are per tile in the Americas vs Eurasia, I think it's actually really good odds to pop up in the Americas even if it looks silly. TBH I think it's just a poorly implemented quest currently.

Has there been any modification to events in DoC at any point? I'm not sure.

 

[Leoreth]

Only minor changes to make it fit the new techs, units, and so on.

Whilst I was playing as the Dutch, Bismarck decided to nuke both O Keo and Kauthara...

 

[Logoncal]

the ai feels very keen on nuking every independent city to the dark age

 

[AOS9001]

I mean, have you seen the defenders they get now? I want to nuke them too!

What year was it? I have never seen Greek colonies outside of Sicily , so it was quite a surprise!

 

[BaneFire]

At one point I had Morocco as a vassal, and my dynamic name was even the Angevin Empire, which I thought was cool.
Anyway even ruling most of Western Europe isn't enough to get 8 Renaissance techs in time...

Man, Guillaume le Conquerant must have got turned around or something. And this is 1522 and only Spain has firearms. Something's gone terribly wrong in Europe.

Also, check out the rare Rotterdam.
