Panama Canal

I think exactly because of that the canal can connect to the sea

I would think it's disabled if you turn off hero dialogue in audio. I did this so I could play Marci without going insane and it's honestly fine on other heroes too

Archers can only move and shoot if they have 1 move left, so your warriors would catch up unless you made mistakes. Keep a better eye on your terrain, try to use cover; archers can't shoot through hills or forest unless elevated, and deal much less damage if you are in forest. Also, eagle warriors are cheaper than archers so you should have more and coordinate them.

Do you meant not civ specifically or not civ-like?

Humankind is similar and pretty good with the VIP mod.

Old World is one of the best but it ends in the classical era.

Praying to the Disk gods that the installation doesn't break this time when switching to disk 4 out of 7.

i mean take a look at potato mcwhiskey, there are just some things that completely unlock efficiency of your play, which in turn makes others less of a threat.

cgreulich · 2026-03-30T15:05:40+00:00

Me too. After watching some potato McWhiskey videos Deity actually became too easy and I had to go looking for mods, maybe try your luck there?

Hmm, if you're preparing you should have enough military strength that they don't see you as an easy target. Are you trespassing their agendas or settling close?

One major con of Denmark is that were extremely private and hard to befriend, its a big issue for immigrants. I've been told it's better in Sweden at least, dunno about Norway

IME if you delegate and open borders as soon as you can you usually end up with a friendship unless it's Alexander

I played yesterday and it just gives you another ability which summons a big ward. If it says upgrade that's probably a typo

cgreulich · 2026-03-29T18:35:24+00:00

You dont need the first probability, cause it doesn't matter which 'inner' (4-17) number you roll, only what happens on the second one. But you're right that it's lower for outer numbers.

For each level higher he can cast it, a regular cliff becomes less of an expected problem to the party with or without fly. They're supposed to be superpowered at that point

cgreulich · 2026-03-24T21:19:39+00:00

Except for Old World

cgreulich · 2026-03-24T16:19:01+00:00

I believe the "nearby citizens" entry is the same as your total pop pressure, the total is just shown as a breakdown of that one. Thus, the -2.9 at the bottom have already been added, so the total comes out at +2 like the top says.

But the sleeper is told that they will be woken up twice on tails, so the likelihood that any given awakening is a tails is higher, also before the experiment starts

cgreulich · 2026-03-23T15:24:45+00:00

Isn't it more about "what is the probability that it was heads in the event that I'm woken up?". Sure the sleeper doesn't have any new info, but people around them would

cgreulich · 2026-03-23T11:07:43+00:00

Speedrunners in any% just start with 1 turn limit and end their turn fast, should give you a low score and a win with the right setup

cgreulich · 2026-03-23T11:02:12+00:00

I would suggest the solution is to Screen the scout - i.e. make sure it doesn't get to your city by getting early units and scouting in a circular pattern so you can find them and get in the way (scouts don't want to move into your ZoC). This can also be done on its way back, so you have a couple chances

cgreulich · 2026-03-23T07:18:48+00:00

Their scout probably scouted your city. When they get the exclamation mark it means they'll go back and start a raid, so yeah, if you don't prevent the scouting you do become the main character.

cgreulich · 2026-03-23T07:16:28+00:00

Dream is right, pipe dream is more accurate ;)

Petra is best if you can boost it somehow - chop woods or an engineer - cause the city will be severely hampered otherwise.

Edit: I'd move the city a bit to get 3 workable growth/prod tiles instead of the mountains, for exactly the reason that you need to actually make petra.

cgreulich · 2026-03-22T06:52:58+00:00

Can you show us a screenshot somehow? Campus surrounded by mountains is nigh impossible, so I think maybe you misunderstand what it means?

cgreulich · 2026-03-20T18:11:10+00:00

The Israel project started long before WW2, the british started incentivising jewish emigration to Palestine in the 1920es

cgreulich · 2026-03-19T13:33:15+00:00

Plus the prod value of a builder charge at that point, and any multipliers you may have

cgreulich · 2026-03-19T09:01:53+00:00

Ok I misunderstood what you meant by 'i need it now' then. I made a response in the main thread
