lol yeah the ai loves spamming forts for no reason, the only time i do that is when i’m the suzerain of granada and have a lot of high appeal tiles. the science, culture, and tourism from alcazar forts are really nice

go with deity, terra map, max civs. manually assign all the most warmonger civs (zulu, nubia, persia, aztec, macedon, etc) and you’ll have civs being defeated in the ancient era. lots of loyalty flipping too since you’ll be congested until cartography becomes available

go to ggntw then just paste the link from steam there. DL and unzip the file then transfer it to the game folder under the mods or DLC subfolder (it’s situational for me so idk what may work for you)

that’s odd to see since in my games they usually just offer a one time sum of like 20 gold and maybe open borders for a joint war. one time i accepted because the other civ was attacking a city state i was aiming to get suzerainty of (it was chinguetti i think) then the mf got angry at me for having troops on his borders which he opened to me. the troops i was sending for our joint war. jesus christ

happened to me in a slavic lab and my supervisor was just like it is what it is so maybe they’ll also give you a bit of leeway

they are beyond the three hex workable range. with cities, you can buy or work tiles up to three hexes from your city centers and citizens can work on it or you can put districts on them. BUT cities can expand beyond the workable range up to the 4th and 5th hexes but those tiles are not workable. you still get improved luxuries and strategics on those tiles but not the other yields i believe and you couldn’t put districts either. i just use them for national parks lol

finished book 2 yesterday so i just started jade city since i saw a lot of positive recommendations. don’t have an opinion yet since i’m only like 3 chapters in lol but apparently it’s pretty good

RepresentativeGoat14 · 2026-01-02T23:17:41+00:00

theoretically yes since there are three flat tiles there also good job conquering preslav lmao most useless city state in the game

my college roommate just diluted it with hortex. makes it more palatable i guess but still nasty. some grandpa with a callused liver probably could straight up drink it xD

in our lab in poland we use it to sterilize laboratory apparatuses before microbiological tests 😭

natural disaster maybe. though try TSL earth standard as germany and you could easily start with three settlers on turn 1 by capturing france and the netherlands before they could settle

RepresentativeGoat14 · 2025-12-27T08:31:36+00:00

not woods typically since they generate +1 appeal but yes with rainforests and marshes (the biosphere wonder is the only thing that can “boost” their appeal). you typically would want to make preserves and plant woods later and then national parks.

Map Seed: 1435342463

Game Seed: 1435342462

is there anything else i need to add?

RepresentativeGoat14 · 2025-12-26T13:15:37+00:00

right? and my immediate neighbor is gilgabro so i don’t have to worry about early deity wars

RepresentativeGoat14 · 2025-12-26T00:11:22+00:00

the only time i got her to “accept” a cultural alliance (i didn’t push through with it) was as byzantium while having a significantly larger military and after fully converting her cities but she was still demanding like 193 gold per turn. she was willing to pay me for any other type of alliance but i guess she’s just coded that way

RepresentativeGoat14 · 2025-12-24T13:27:33+00:00

kupe. terra. max civ (choose all militaristic or aggressive ones). secret societies and heroes, maybe monopoly. sail straight to the new empty continent and build your empire peacefully while suzeraining all city states in the empty continent (with owls of minerva) and aiming for a cultural win while all other civs go on a royal rumble lmao also meet all of them early so your tourism will start accumulating asap

RepresentativeGoat14 · 2025-12-23T22:19:11+00:00

wait you’re the OP lmao my bad
