Traffic comes and goes.
There's no inherent value to getting more traffic really.

>>128319068
EL's got a neat combat system, stack into tactical overworld with reinforcements

>>128316457
What is that from?

>>128319068
Just a bit more extra traffic might keep the thread from dying tho...

This thread dies every night except night before yesterday when I was here to deliberately keep it alive this general is fucking DEAD as shit I keep trying to talk about EL as well and hardly anyone responds eveere

>>128319068
I agree. I'm not happy at all about the inclusion.

>>128326341
We just have to wait for Endless Space 2 and hope it's not shit, then it can revitalize this thread for once more


The thing is that there just isn't much to discuss about

Haven't played civ5 in a year and thinking of starting a new game.

Usually go ynaemp giant, but will go for a generated map now instead.

Haven't looked into mods much, but I think I'll try some. Got a fish mod tech which just added one step on the top end, +1 food from fishes building iirc, but I never played with it.

What mods do you use?

>>128327373

I have always liked the idea of probe/satellite based surveys and scans

Could have a carrier group and then launch probes to nearby bodies upon successful jump.

>>128332546
wow, what a retort

>>128327497
Haven't played in a while but I like the No Quitters mod. Major upgrades and tweaks to the social policies and whatnot, the general idea is to provide more options on starting up, hence the "no quitters".
Oh, one of my favorite parts; Granaries and Mints now account for Buffalo and Copper like they probably should.
Just be warned, they did make some weird Civ-related changes. No Venice anymore, Ottomans have a new ability, and A-bombs have been removed entirely in favor of Missiles.

This fucking hard difficulty in EL is some serious shit. Seems the difficulty ramps up WAY steeper in this game than civ 5. I'm not even era 4 yet and someone just started their victory quest. Seems it's back to normal for me until I have a better grasp of this game. So annoying though, normal seemed pretty boring. Someone on /r/endlesslegend (yes I went to browse it because you fucks never respond here and I want to learn this game) wrote:
>My recommendation for practicing is to play on a difficulty you can win, but always try to figure out how to make your wins faster. Cruise control is the wrong metaphor, it's more like practice laps on a racetrack.
Guess that's a good way of looking at it?

The "weird" changes come from it being a multiplayer-oriented mod

>>128345492
Minor factions don't count for peace, burn them all.

>>128349298
Don't get me wrong, it all makes sense from a general balance perspective.
Actually, that makes me appreciate the mod a lot more, its not one of those goofy "start with X goofy OP thing because fuck the AI" mods.

Can you not right-click away the city attack thing at the side?

If this doesn't save it then nothing will.

Is a single-minded science rush literally the best strategy in existence in Civ V?

I am getting some strange behaviour with AI's diplomacy in CiV.
I had a declaration of friendship with the Celts who invited me to join a war against Austria. Since I was already planning on attacking them I accepted and rushed to the capital. I then proceeded to scoop the last remaining cities.
After that I receive a message from the Celts that says they are breaking the DoF with me.
Also I had two other nations offering me resources but when I clicked tried to accept the offering they kinda had a second thought and insulted me.
Is this normal behaviour? I am using the community balance mod

Most AoE 2 campaigns are solved with 2 simple things

1) Keep your units alive
2) Remember to build a lot of shit and pump out units

The harder ones usually have both of these elements with very limited resources or time limit.

>>128371095
There are some amazing custom scenarios for AoE2.
