      It will be OK, I hope, but they really have to work non-stop on this one. I just wish they did lest promo tours and spent more time actually playing the game.
      I also hope they nerf the steamroll. After all, it was Jon Shafer who, a long time ago at Poly, wrote
      having played Civ first I thought the way provinces are captured was a bit odd but I really like it now... it prevents uber-blitzing over other countries like you'll see in Civ, leading to more realistic wars. I hope they keep things pretty similar in EU3.

      Ugh, stuck in a perma peace treaty. I thought this was supposed to have been addressed.

      No, thanks.. Civ V is raw enough to me

  • Do you Ever Move Your First Settler?
    by Aeson
    An interesting article at The Escapist about Civilization and some of the goings-on behind the scenes at Firaxis:

    http://www.escapistmagazine.com/arti...s-Civ-V-Studio



    I have a lot of problems with the methods Firaxis tested this with. Turning off barbs, limiting AI expansion ... those are two critical factors for how big an impact waiting to found your first city will be.

    I myself like to move the other unit first, see if there's a good spot to move the Settler to in a couple of turns or less. A river hill is is hard to pass up moving to. The extra production from the hill will pay off the first move very quickly.

    How about you? In what circumstances do you feel moving the Settler is a good idea?...
