United Nations Resolutions

[Imran Siddiqui]

Ok, so when you get nominated at head of the UN, how exactly do you sponsor other resolutions? I have no idea how to bring them up, though by my position, I'm the only one that has the right to do so....

So... how?

[Solver]

It will pop up in 3 turns.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Ah... every three turns a new option? Or you can vote on how many you want after 3 turns?

[Solver]

Every three turns if you're the Secretary General, a popup shows up asking which resolution you want. After three resolutions, a new SG election occurs.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Ah... thanks Solver .

(punctuation mine, yes it's better)

Each civ vote is weighted mostly by the population and some minor parameters I can't figure: this give you a point total.

Then the resolution is passed if the sum of the points of the CIV agreeing it reach the total needed (the total points needed is shown in the resolution screen).

As I said, you can improve you points by increasing your population.

Most importantly you can gain the votes of other civs by having them liking you (and I hope they are if you plan to play with the UN wonder !).

You can't get them all to like you, so getting close to a couple of powerful allies may get the votes needed. Weak allies are not much use in the UN, though they could tip the balance. It's probably not a good idea to have weak allies, though, as you're likely to get powerfull enemies.

Having all the early religions might be one way to get a block of allies, but that won't always be possible. Trade, Civics, response to help are also influential.
