Clarification: in your explanation of the Agriculture card during combat situations (starting around 26:30), it is implied that the population bonus would apply should both civs have Agriculture. However, the bonus is never applied in situations of conflict or cohabitation, as per 32.241: "This effect increases the number of tokens substituted for reduced cities by one, but does not apply during conflicts or in areas which contain tokens belonging to other nations."
Regarding the Military Advance card, you advise you move last with this card as opposed to AST order (around 29:25) however movement order is based on Census Order (i.e. CIV with most units moves first) then AST if tied. Great Tutorial Videos!
Thanks for these videos! However, at 1:35, you mis-state "No one player can have the effects of two calamities hit them as the primary victim in one turn." You meant to say "the effects of MORE THAN two calamities...". Your immediately following explanation of how to determine which two to use, was correct.
There are no restrictions on available civilizations in a 7-player game. 16.4 Six players - All four panels of the mapboard are used. If the Western Extension Mapboard is available, players may choose not to use the eastern-most panel of the mapboard. Each player uses 55 tokens.
There's a FREE version of Advanced Civ Online at civ.rol-play.com/ . Plenty of players, and can't feel any difference with the board game. Just the time it takes (it's a turn based game, so it may take some time)
Thanks, going to play this with a group for the first time today. a great series of clear and concise explanations

28:53 i thought i was having a stroke when i heard this part xD i was like "didnt you just explain military?"
In your speed example, you have 7 players. When using 7 players, no one is allowed to play Italy. Just FYI.
