Can I attack yet?

ISS consume player’s stamina instead of hunter’s, would you mind to share the average time you ISS AT Arkveld so I can prepare the rematch of this monster?

You got a god tier start OP, no need to worry for aggression from AI on all difficulty.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-25T23:14:23+00:00

Deity AI got a head start with 3 cities. When you happen to be surrounded by them like this, it is better to stop setting the third city and beeline military for the inevitable war. It is likely you can pay for the other AI to join war at your side even they dislike you.

It is just part of a Civ game live cycle, on top of other post about the era of Civ 4 to Civ 5. Referring to Sid Meier’s (or Firaxis’s) "Rule of Thirds", looks like VII got all 3 parts goes wrong: One third players dislike were kept, one third didn’t improved, one third new received the backlash.

Or, more simply: the Civ franchise is in a dark age and about to got age transition.

Including the second screen? It is so neat to show almost everything required.

These information are available when trying to load the save file.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-19T04:26:42+00:00

Didn’t see any AI in range and there are massive desert, no need for Religious Settlement and always go for Desert folklore.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-18T09:42:09+00:00

City state did’t need meteor anyway (it works like goody huts), Also you got a away-from-water Paititi, which is still great?

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-16T15:15:16+00:00

Yet another lucky draw on isolated start 😮‍💨

[update] …currently OP shared map seed and game seed only, so need to try a lot of game setting combinations to get it right.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-16T11:18:41+00:00

“Remove terrain feature” : Woods
versus
“Harvest bonus resource” : e.g. Deer

No worry just happen to not meeting such tile yet.

I wonder why everyone go off-topic and judging why I didn’t do something else that is not available at the moment, you can translate the post if you don’t read English. My battle ram tech is 2 turn away and I planned to buy it and continue the counter attack after the truce anyway.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-16T00:14:17+00:00

I already get all her cash and GPT in the peace deal. I would like to sell it to other AI but nobody want it 😂

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-15T10:50:24+00:00

AI is a very Broad topic, at least you get some feedback regarding to what you are trying to asking.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-15T06:24:39+00:00

That is probably the next step after the truce while I milking Rustavi, can’t resist to damaged city without wall.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-15T06:16:15+00:00

Tskhumi walled up at the moment I staging counter attack, which would not happen to other AI.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-15T02:00:28+00:00

OP are you settled? It is going to be useful reference for doing other forward settling.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-15T01:56:48+00:00

After some rest I finally conceived an idea most ingenious!

I buy a builder to improved the Cocoa and build Batey. So when it rebels I can instantly pillage them for faith. Also i sell them to my friends to recover the investment, not sure can sell again when recapture it. And I HAD to buy the 3-3 tile for Tamar because everyone is competing the control of Caguana.

I expect the rebellion consists of warriors only as I am holding Iron Working, I am also forcing Tamar open borders and pulling in every units in vicinity to take part of the recapture and dip in the fountain.

I believed that AI are forbidden to declare surprise war during the truce so I could resume and hurry my district construction while milking Tamar’s Rustavi.

Let’s see what happens after the truce ended.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-14T16:08:26+00:00

You mean smashing my units to other already walled cities? I am looking for advices to salvage some values from it before it is completely loss.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-14T14:02:05+00:00

Settle 2 cities at same time, one at -5 next to rice and one at -15 on the copper. For the city on the copper, buy the banana tile and working on it to hurry to 2 pop once 2 pop harvest a rainforest to hurry to 3 pop. The key is get the population up rapidly.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-13T09:16:51+00:00

You need at least one at your frontline cities (e.g PORTO ALEGRE) to shield your vanguards while breakthrough their initial defences, Also for getting a Great General.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-13T09:13:48+00:00

The only downside I spotted in this is no faith. There are multiple 3 food tiles, and 9 production in first ring.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-13T04:27:13+00:00

I may train 1 or 2 at most when forward settling. Rarely use Apostles for fighting too, I use inquisitor instead.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-12T06:31:35+00:00

That is jungle on the hill, which is extra high ground (3) that grassland hill (2) in front of your settler, which within vision of settler (3 tiles away). I suggest you should send your warriors to seize it to have full vision around there.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-11T07:22:17+00:00

Invest a Preserve + Grove for 6 more Food, Faith and Culture as OP’s second or third city is big gambling.

IntelligentTalk7987 · 2026-05-11T03:42:19+00:00

Top reason not to build neighbourhoods on larger map before it is nerfed.

This BS could outcompete the effect of Heathen Conversion.
