Why the fuck cant I start my three launch mars things for science victory? Got all techs and earth satellite, soon moon landing too. I've searched for them in the production list 10 times now. Im pretty much just skipping turns to officially win an already won game, but Im going crazy over this. Google and Civilopedia says nothing. You have to make the projects one at a time. So once you've done the moon landing you can do all 3 of the mars things. It's incredibly unclear from the game. | ||

In my first victory game, I think I spent like 100 turns just rotely building space shit to win. | ||

Pretty damn boring game. Granted if I knew how much I needed to build all buildings I'd have prepared better, but my plan for "ok games over, just go for a quick science victory to get it over with" probably ended up the slowest victory. Pretty sure I coulda just switched gear and built a bunch of army units and ran over them, heh. | ||

I have this Germany immortal game going right now where I am in the information age and everyone else is at least 2 ages behind me, but I don't really have a means of finishing the game within 50 turns. It's just too much work, so I'm probably going to just abandon the game and start a new one. That's always been the case of 4x games. At some point you get ahead enough that no one can stop you and its just a boring X turns until you win. Don't think I have played one in 20+ years where this wasn't a state you arrive at some point. | ||

I think I'll wait for a patch before trying a big religious playstyle on immortal or deity. | ||

I've got 8 Grecian missionaries and one apostle, 3 japanese missionaries and one apostle, and two spanish apostles sitting outside two cities within my borders.

You put humans in charge of religion and ... well everybody knows humans are better than computers at simulating successful campaigns and moves in advance, right? humans are better than computers at charting out scientific discoveries and synergizing advances from any point, right? But nah ... it's those God and gods stuff that the computers got us beat on  | ||

Tech: Get resource techs first, if archer rushing, it's best to delay archery just a bit so you can get enough slingers out and upgrade them at the same time. One city only. Get writing and place the campus so its production cost locks and go back to building units/builders. If not rushing, buy your first settler and go for religion, get astrology and a holy site, religion is usually obtainable if you have a good holy site spot and another small boost like a convoy at a religion city-state, good enough land for a faith pantheon, etc. Buy the GP with faith as soon as you have enough faith. From then on, beeline apprenticeship, build commercial hub asap, then industrial asap, get engineering for aqueducts only if your cities need it. Chops are helpful here. Fill up trader slots asap. Civ: Craftsmanship before foreign trade for +50% ranged unit production if rushing, if not, early empire first, then political philosophy, then beeline feudalism, then merchant republic. Best cultural victory strat is by abusing relics like another poster mentioned. It helps to get Mount St.Michel for it. For domination, beeline machinery, should be able to take out the entire continent with xbows if on continents map. Theocracy helps a bit but not super important. If beelining machinery, it's still best to build industrial districts first or it takes way too long to build an up to date army. | ||
