The "New World" map type features an "empty" continent for everyone to colonize. Extremely not cool.

We should probably put an alert in the op before we lose more people to the tutorial. RIP.

Has anyone tried to use the "Under One Banner" expansionist ability? When targeted at peaceful civs it says you need to be at war, but when I targeted it at someone I was at war with it said I needed to change diplomatic status..

Eimi posted:I'm playing on the beta and something that I've noticed is that civics scale insanely fast, as does the cost of attaching cities. I have a useless 20~ pop city that I just can't do poo poo because I want to attach it but it costs 50k!!!! influence do. A decent spot on the Phoenician one is an easy +10 food +10 gold. You can just settle in the middle of coastal forests and not worry about food at all.

FractalSandwich posted:Is it worth sticking around in the Neolithic to pick up the extra trait? The bonus is pretty huge, but is it worth the cost in tempo? Especially if it could mean missing your shot at the Ancient culture you want? Yeah, you have to weigh up what you want to do and what the trade-offs are.

poverty goat posted:e: Has anyone ever successfully picked the Harappans (agrarian) in the ancient era? Or is this just one of those things the cheating AI will always get first, forever You can yeah. - Change out your AI opponents. Militaristic ones, for example, prefer other civs. - Use auto-scout for turns or partial turns where you aren't sure where to go. It'll heat-seek resources through the fog. - Be careful wasting turns chasing dead-end berries or getting bogged down in river systems/forests. - Pick rewards that help you star up now(+hunters) rather than the discount research ones. - Bonus hunters from events start with full move so split them off so they can use it. - Split your second hunter off so you cover double the area but then try to move in 2s so they can hunt mammoths or temporarily split to efficiently pick up resources.

If you build a farm over a forest river, negating it's production, would the tile still qualify for a lumbermill?

Is there any structure to how sanctuaries spawn animals? I thought I'd give endless mammoth hunting a go in the Neolithic, as I found two sanctuaries close by, but after 20 turns I got nothing but deer.

Ah ok, farming mammoths for a while in the Neolithic makes the culture and expansion civs much smoother. You can get your second city up asap and disband your swarm of hunters to immediately populate them both.

I think the morphing cultures is great, the issue is that the leaders currently don't have enough personality to hold it together.

Is there some simple way to tweak map scripts so I can get close/semi-touching continents? No 4x seems to include this as an option even though it's how the actual world is set out and it always drives me crazy. There's even a continent closeness setting right there but they only put in separated and chaotic options

Veryslightlymad posted:Patronage is straight up busted and unbalanced. You don't need to own all the copies of a resource to claim yourself as the best at it, merely to have access to half. So if you're sitting on one pearl, and some other empire across the planet has 6 deposits of pearls, you can trade for their pearls, specifically so you can then declare "Actually, my pearls are the best pearls" and get an enormous empire wide bonus for having done so. Just utterly ridiculous This feels like the type of game where almost everything is busted good.

Your absolute priority in the Neolithic is mammoths and don't click up if you have more nearby + get a second city up asap; don't spend any influence until you've got it.

The second city is a massive influence source itself letting you snowball expansion and if they pinch a good sector next to you you can just demand the grievance on it backed up by 2 cities worth of military production.

I've loaded this up a couple times recently but the base AI personalities just loving suck, they just come across as random Apple commercial shitheads. I tried to sign up for the lovely G2G thing to download some but it didn't like my email. Still no map option for an Earth-like continent distribution either. It's a bummer.

The base leaders absolutely suck. Because you're constantly picking new cultures through time you need that strong personality to pull things together and they just don't. Not only are they a random half-assed assortment of mythological figures most people haven't heard of, they just don't have any personality. I think I've said this before, but they remind me of the fake people from Apple ads rather than world leaders. I don't think there's anything in game that even tells you who most of them are either. There's lots of interesting ideas but after playing through a full game I didn't feel any compulsion to start up another one and just moved on. e/ Like, as an exercise, give me a sentence that describes Tjilbruke based on your experience with the game?
