    I once had a nuclear missile lose to a phalanx. However, regardless of the result of the battle, at the end of the battle the nuclear missile explodes so only SDI actually (sort of) prevents disaster. Even then, because the city pulls all workers from the fields, you can still starve a city or destroy the city units even if they have SDI.

    I believe the Superconductor image is meant to represent no power loss across the circuit due to the use of the Superconductive material. Both gauges show full power across the distance of the circuit whereas power loss does occur due to distance, I think.

    The populations seem low, because the city population grows exponentially with each step. Your cities are small and too close to each other.
    You could have just removed some conquered enemy cities by buying settlers from them. Before buying the last settler, change the home city of the earlier once or settle them somewhere else.
    Not sure about this, might be just my fever dreams, but in some Civ game, might have been this one, you could settle a settler in a city, increasing the pop.
    Watching this is both enjoyable and triggering at the same time!

      Of course you can populate cities with Settlers, but just up to 10. But you can't remove a city by producing a Settler. Once you get a city down to 1, the game will refuse to build it. It was possible in the earlier versions of the game, but the devs patched it later.

      @@mykolapliashechnykov8701 Zakh removed a city in this very campaign by building a settler there at 1 pop.
      Might be some unofficial patch shenanigans, or a memory error on your part. I tried it on the browser version, and removing cities by building settlers is a thing there too.
      At the same time I have a vague memory of camping a city and attacking it whenever it had a defender, and capturing it only at 1 pop to kill it.
      It's been so long that I can't trust any of my memories!

    Use settlers to clean up the pollution as it happens. Build more railways to increase your production around cities.

    • @GamerZakh
      @GamerZakh  Місяць тому

      Yeah but there's no automate settlers in Civ 1 right? I didn't want to micro that when I was already winning.

  • @gebus5633
    @gebus5633 11 місяців тому +1

    If there is no pollution visible in the city view, the city does not pollute (increasing pop might change this), so stacking pollution removal in a city that doesn't need it is not efficient. You could build settlers to remove the ground pollution instead.
    The pollution on the tiles left uncleaned is what is causing the planet to heat. You can see the ball next to the science bulb on the main UI cycling from darker reds towards white, and after that if things aren't cleaned up the planet warms.
    You can reverse the warming during the cycle by removing the pollution on the ground. The tile changes due to warming are irreversible.
