As arabia with 3 cities I had 1000 a turn in the industrial era
[QUOTE=deltasquid;32291547]Well then what's your strategy? Do you go wide or high with your cities? How aggressive are you in expanding?[/QUOTE]
I put my cities where there is good resources (nearby if it's early in the game), doesn't matter where they are in regards to direction. I expand to about five cities early-on then kick-up production and gold in all my cities, ignoring military units for the most part. This can only be accomplished early-game when the other civ's can't do shit to you and only keep around enough forces to push back the barbarians. I do not scout until the renaissance era (which I mass explore the world). During the renaissance I mass buy military units and kill off the most aggressive players by the start of the industrial era.

I play on Hard (Immortal) by the way.
Hmm, I think the problem is that for me, I can hardly find resources. People often say "oh place cities where there's at least two resources" but it's seriously hard to keep my happiness positive then if I expand really fast.

Expand moderately fast, then.

When I begin my five-city expand I try to keep my happiness around 1 or 0, which isn't bad. After my cities have moderate production capabilities I try to build happiness buildings (like the colosseum) and it raises the happiness around 20 or so.
I hate it when you're making lods emone and then you realize its a golden age....

Atabia, you shall suffar.
God....damnit....England.
After destroying Siam with my army of cannons I turned on England. The problem is they have a fucking city on an island one tile off the coast. Every time I try manage to get its health low enough to capture it, a ship of the line comes out of nowhere and destroys my transport ships. Decided to amass a fleet of ironclads and just surround the city.
The diplomacy in Civ 5 reminds me alot of Empire Earth 2 for some reason.

Declare war on the city states.
[QUOTE=Capitulazyguy;32309753]Declare war on the city states.[/QUOTE]
This, those pesky city states must perish.
Aww I love the city states. They're the only ones I'm ok with sharing my continent with. How effective are submarines?

I always pick just one and ally with it, and then protect it because I'm so generous like that. Then I destroy the rest. causing Gandhi to shit himself

Re-installing. My god, I loved EE (3 sucked though).
[QUOTE=Mackalda2k6;32312125]How effective are submarines?[/QUOTE]
They take out most naval units in one hit.
My friend told me to take the continent by force and then build a submarine fleet around it to protect my waters.
When I first reinstalled Civ 3, I didn't realize you could turn off automatic move animations.
I got a cultural victory after 14 hours, about 3/4 of it spent watching workers run back and forth.
Hello thread. Why are you on the second page?
Is there a mod which lets you build multiple buildings in each city?
[QUOTE=Chekko;32317123]Hello thread. Why are you on the second page?

Wouldn't that be really game breaking? I'm assuming you mean building more than one building of the same type in each city.
Stupid idea then.
Hey, let's record while playing CIV with fraps for an hour or two.

Guess not.
I lost because I built the UN out of boredom while going for a space race victory, everyone voted for Siam. :gonk:

Brilliant! :v:
I had one part to move to my capital and one left to build as well.
[QUOTE=ForgottenKane;32312627]Re-installing. My god, I loved EE (3 sucked though).[/QUOTE]
Funny thing is, he was proposing an alliance to me all game, I wasn't the superpower then I was assuming he was just using it to get my LOS, and would then go hostile and attack me.

Strategic view crashes my game. :(
Speaking of game crashing, that Egypt game keeps crashing on turn 292 and I have no idea why.

I'm in a war with Napoleon, taken two of his cities (Chartres and Tours), made peace with three new nations, and have a massive surplus of Workers.
