hi ,

with good planning we can beat the AI , okay , they start with more units , but then there is nothing for a long time , what is 12 cities with one unit in them , you can take them with two swords , ......

or are we going to say that we cant beat a simple AI program , ........

deity , we need a real challenge !

have a nice day

It is usually like 3-4 units/city and about 7-8 units in the capital @ deity.

With a strong accent on naval warfare..? Emperor would be fine, but if enough people are for Deity (and know how to beat the AI!), I'm all for Deity.

[sabrewolf]

deity!
with so many big brains and strategists around here, this level should be no challenge at all (except you start on a 10 tile tundra island )

btw: CFC used this level too.

deity.

I'm not saying we can't beat the AI at deity; if a single player not MMing every detail can, so can we. I just feel that choosing deity resigns us to being bloodthirsty warmongers all game; while plenty of SPers seem to be able to roll over the AI with Tanks, rolling over other the other civs with libraries seems to not even be an option on deity, whereas we were able to build for a while on Emperor.

As others have expressed, I can win at Emperor, a Diety win seems un-attainable. The AI kicks my ass at research and builds a huge army.

So I vote for Diety!!! Teach me how to win.

I struggle so much on Deity. I want to see how people manage to beat it. Therefore, Deity gets my vote.

[GodKing]

I have won 2 times on deity. Only 2 times out of a hundred or so tries. You need to have excelent FAM skills, and know when to attack or not. War is the best way, but not the only way. UN vote was one of the two wins - I played spain and had lots of culture and gold. THe other was domination, on a small map both times. This will be tricky. I say go for it... and don't be to surprised if we loose.

Emperor.

Deity pretty much ensures constant warfare, which significantly slows down the game, and pretty much prevents any type of builder strategy. That's why I'm against it.
