Just to be clear for anyone who is new to the game, when Quill was looking at building a farm with his worker next to his Capital, the capital showed zero growth (stagnation) because he was building a Settler. Building a settler will always pause a city's growth which it is in production, and resume once it has completed.
I was playing this one game on a huge map where I had almost twenty cities that wanted spices and when I finally got a city that had some literally half of my empire celebrated "we love the king day"
I've been really enjoying your commentary on your playthrough. I haven't played any of the previous civ games, but tried the demo for this one and got hooked. I can't afford to get it right now, but plan to eventually. Your explainaions are great and I've learned more from the few videos of yours that I've watched than all the others combined. Keep up the great job!
you're awesome. I've got this game... played it for like 4mins and quit after not knowing shit and looking at the help section lol. It looks soo huge that I just didn't feel like learning the stuff, but your vids showed me the basics and now i love this game.
@captainblackskul download it for 60 bucks? last time i checked, it was 50. at least, in us dollars. maybe youre talking about canadian or australian dollars, in which case, sorry.
I am not that good at the rts, mostly because of base building + micromanaging. But I am an expert at blitzkreig. In Rise of nations, my base rts, I commonly win in minutes, almost always below 10. I know I can't do it in this, but how complex is base building, thta will be the key part in my choice to buy this game.
This game is turn based, so you cant really treat it like you would an rts. It is possible to 'rush' in the sense that you can try to end the game on small maps quickly. However, the more rival civilisations, and the larger the size, the more difficult this becomes.
Dude...sometimes you sound like Wallace Shawn as the evil genius in The Princess Bride.
"I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders - The most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia" - but only slightly less well-known is this: "Never go against a Sicilian when death is on the line"! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
I’m glad that you playing for cultural victory. Other letsplays are domination, and they are super boring, because everyone play on prince, send 10 longswordsmen to city (when you need 2 or 3), wasting half hour for all movements across map.

if you were going for a cultural victory you should've played as the french. They get a cultural bonus each turn until the discovery of steam power.

I just realized that you should have built Babylon next to that river because Akkad is also on that river and they would have connected
