What does Golden Age do? quick question

[Valen Dreth]

Hi, I just got my Golden Age, and don't want to continue with the game before I find out what this does. So if I can use it to my advantage, I want to know for what. Please reply quick.

Tried to look in the civilipedia, but didn't find it

Increases Commerse and Production, and (in BtS) prevents Anarchy during a Religious or Civic change.

A golden age gives +1 in each tile that already gives at least one, and +1 in each tile that already gives at least one. All cities generate 100% more great people points, and you can change civics without anarchy while in a golden age.

A golden age increases hammer and commerce production in all cities, doubles your Great Person production in all cities, and allows you to switch civics and religions without anarchy. It's not a bad perk, but of course everything goes back to normal once the golden age is finished.

Thanks alot guys!. Another quick question. Is there a way to turn off barbarians, if so. How?

Wow, I didn't knew that!... thanks

There is an option (check box) to turn them off, but you have to use the "custom match" (I believe that would be the english translation, I play the spanish version).

But the best way to turn them off is: "The Great Wall", they can't harm your empire, but you can go after them!

Premier Valle is right about turning off Barbarians. There is a setting in the 'Custom Game' setup that you can set to no barbarians-or raging barbarians if you like to fight.

No its 50% more Commerce and 50% more production in every city

I don't think so, although I'm not 100% sure. That sounds like Bureaucracy's Capital bonus to me...

Nope, MrCynical's answer is correct: +1 in each tile that already gives at least one, and +1 in each tile that already gives at least one. (Plus the aforementioned no-anarchy and +100% GPP).

Perhaps you're playing a mod that changed it?

No I*m Playing A Mod That Changed It
