Poil posted:I'm spending half the time fighting the UI with the horrible delayed unit cycling and how hard it is to see anything when you have a settler or religious unit selected. Not to mention how grayed out every unit becomes when it's not active and WHY THE gently caress ISN'T THERE AN ALERT BUTTON SO MY UNITS WON'T JUST SIT AROUND IGNORING THE BARBS WALK AROUND THEM?!? No notification that a city can bombard either. This poo poo and the terrible trade route UI(lack of indicator of what your last trade route was, can't set it to autorefresh) are some absolutely baffling decisions.

Montezuma is amazing. Just spam Eagle Warriors and then snowball hard with all your free builders. And since they don't cost any maintenance, you can keep dozens of them around to beat up on city states to get free builders even in later eras. Aztecs own

RazzleDazzleHour posted:The greeks waged war on me really early on and I came out of the conflict with like eight builders, but I had nothing to build after a certain point. How many cities should I be making as Aztecs? I was sitting on three well into the Classical Era Make all the cities. Blanket everything with cities! 3 cities in the classical era seems low. If you see a location with fresh water, preferably a river, and some luxuries then feel free to poop out a city. Bring 2-3 builders with you to speed build the industrial district and science district(or whatever, I prefer science).

splifyphus posted:I have posted wrong information in the thread, which I will now rectify. Amenities really stop being a problem once you get entertainment districts. I guess if you built like 6+ cities with 3 luxuries between them AND never traded for poo poo your citizens would be unhappy but then you can just build some districts. Sadly going wide is still the best strat.

The Gorp posted:Just wanting to know if the common populous agrees with me - Yea Scythia is definitely a top tier civ. You will over everything. Not to mention her leader ability that gives +5 attack on damaged units and healing after you kill them.or you can just sell all your for money.I'd say that Scythia and Aztecs are probably the most powerful civs, just because of how great they are early game(which leads to snowballing) and they still have some stuff that is useful throughout the course of the game(Scythia's leader ability and power building districts using builder charges for the Aztecs).

Roland Jones posted:Question; does making improvements everywhere, like mines, farms, etc. destroy unrevealed strategic resources, or if you, say, make a mine on a hill that is later revealed to have uranium does it just become a uranium mine, or you have to make a new improvement to get it or whatever? The "blanket your lands in improvements" strategy makes sense but if it wrecks your chances at strategic resources later that wouldn't be ideal. It becomes a uranium mine. I have no idea what would happen if you built something else on it. I assume it would be destroyed. That's not even mentioning how really loving rare the last few strategic resources are. I think there were 4-5 sources of uranium on a huge map I was playing and I would guess 10 or so each for aluminum and coal. Thank god I was suzerain with some city states that had some because I had none in my 11 city empire.

I assume people know that barb camps can't spawn if you have sight on the map, so poo poo out a ton of warriors / scouts(no maintenance) and spread them out so that you have vision(no fog of war on any land hex) throughout your empire. Bonus is that your lovely army will deter people from attacking you for an early era or two.

Tom Tucker posted:What makes the Aztecs good - is it the ability to basically buy districts with the worker ability? Eagle Warriors are really strong and can be used to get free builders at the start. Power building districts is useful all game long and let's you go wider than you normally could since their build time isn't much of a concern. Their leader ability of having luxuries provide amenities to 6 cities rather than 4 and gaining +1 combat strength for each luxury you have improved also goes well with playing wide. The Tlachtli is good for a unique building. Scythia gets light cavalry spam which is just ridiculous. Horse archers are pretty good too. You can stomp all your enemies or just build them to sell. Tomris' leader ability is really useful all game, giving you +5 against wounded units and letting whatever unit did the killing blow heal up to 50 hp. Their unique tile improvement can be built at the start and let's you start generating faith quickly if you want to play that way.

I also still can't figure out where good places to found new cities because thinking is hard. Rivers > Lake > on the coast >= nothing. Ideally it would be near some luxuries(or strategic resources if you need them) as well.

Cockblocktopus posted:I'm feeling the Civ itch for the first time in years. Despite putting >1000 hours into Civ 4, Civ V never really clicked for me and I never bothered to check out Beyond Earth. I have Civ V and (I think) all of the major expansions, but I'm willing to pick up either VI or BE if it's a better experience. What's the thread consensus on the best post-Civ IV game to play right now? Buy 5 and both expansions when they are on sale. Wait a few patches before getting 6.

gfsincere posted:I know I'm an rear end in a top hat for wading in here and asking this, but is this substantially better than Civ 5? I know the near universal opinion of Beyond Earth was that it sucked, but wht's the major improvements of Civ 6 over 5? I can't seem to find any clear cut reviews that talk about it. It will be better once they patch it up. Right now I'd still recommend 5 over 6.

gfsincere posted:Well that's disappointing to hear. It's by no means a bad game, but there are some baffling design choices like the UI, terrible diplomacy system or just lacking functionality the other games already had(trade route / spying automation, build queues, etc). The base is there for a good game they just need to fix it.
