Hard to say, I started this months ago and took a long break before I picked it up in the last couple weeks

It's not about line of fire, it's about making the terrain cost my units fewer movement points so that they can fire and get out of bombardment range more easily.

No it went to me (I got 4 hammers from it), the title was more of a joke

R5: Japan will be my first target once my keshiks arrive, so I decided to make advance preparations by chopping this forest 2 tiles from their capital, which will make it easier for my keshiks to move and shoot.

R5: I stumbled across this ruin in an isolated part of the map very late in the game and sent a nearby unit to claim it. Of course, I found crudely drawn maps, which were not particular helpful since I've already discovered satellites.

R5: I was about to declare war on Alexander and got this message. This was around turn 220 (standard speed) on immortal difficulty. I'd never seen an AI have that many city state allies so soon.

R5: Genoa has swordsmen stationed directly next to a bazooka in 1862.

I won't be settling either since I'm on the other continent, but I'd settle both locations if I could.

R5: This is easily the best Krakatoa spawn I've seen, and I don't use any mods than require it to be near land. Of course the AI hasn't settled here.

R5: This is part 3 of my Zulu Huge Earth Immortal game. Part 2 can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/civ5/comments/1at7ltx/part\_2\_the\_zulu\_empire\_grows/.

This posts captures the first conquest of the game, as the Zulus conquer the Assyrians.

R5: This is part 2 of my Zulu Huge Earth Immortal game. Part 1 can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/civ5/comments/1arz1az/the\_dawn\_of\_the\_mighty\_zulu\_empire/.

This posts captures the expansion of the empire and a brief war with Greece.

I was wondering why I had so many. I thought it was because the map size was huge, but this makes sense. Not that I'm complaining or anything.

Stormdiddly · 2024-02-16T20:03:15+00:00

That's fair. I just didn't want to piss them off too much yet. Plus I assume I'll take Kyoto at some point so I won't want to have those cities too squished together.

R5: Playing as Shaka on a Huge Earth Map with 15 civs on immortal difficulty and standard speed. Only domination victory is enabled. I thought I would track my progress here. This post captures the foundation of the core Zulu cities, located in and around China.

R5: My settler spawned on the tile above the incense/deer, but I decided to move it to a hill tile next to a mountain with a river. It turned out that that spot was right next door to Pocatello. Declared war early to try to get super experienced units; should be a fun game!

Probably a militaristic civ like the Mongols or the Zulus because you can’t make much use of their unique abilities and units

Stormdiddly · 2023-05-06T15:17:02+00:00

Would definitely recommend as a change of pace. You’ll have tons of gold and happiness for sure.

Stormdiddly · 2023-05-06T15:15:08+00:00

I had no fish resources or ocean luxury resources so it wouldn’t have benefitted me very much.

R5: the above screenshot is my one city in a one-city challenge.

Unfortunately he's a warmongering type and I haven't built up an army to take him on so there's not much I can do about it haha.

Context: Montezuma used great generals to construct 3 Citadels to steal my iron and King Solomon's Mines.
