    this really helps thanks I played a game as America and lost because I spawned next to not one but two barbarian camps I set up a city and actually did well I set up another city and was building up culture and made the mistake of not continuously updating my army. barbarians came with knights and cannons and my city was lost I kept trying to get a settler out but they kept getting attacked and I made a plan and succeeded I built a city when my city did not like me and declared itself its own nation so I started dealing with that when Egypt declared surprise war on me brought giant Robo death suits and took over my country. the best game ever.

    After c. 15 cities (on standard map) I feel unless it gives me a strategic ressource I don't have, more cities are relatively useless, they will only eat up my amenities. Personally I find early war on Deity more difficult to pull off than a piecefuly victory. Clearly the best mod is Quick Deals. Agree on the wonders, except Kilwa and the Mausoleum, always get those, but there is no rush, the AI usually doesn't rush them.

    So I win 90% of my games on medium difficulty (still struggleing a bit with the more difficult ones😅) and my favourite tactic is:
    In the beginning I focus on building as many cities as possible, also concentrating work on producitivity and money. Then I start building wonders in like 3 of my 10-12 cities at once and as many as I can possibly build throughout the game. Worked out great for me, I got the cultural win very fast most of the time🤗 Even with China around;)

    Nice video solid content. Though I wish it wasn't case with number of towns being so important (though I agree you are right) ... makes me sad because if I want to play on bigger map then I have to babysit so many ... it is not even funny. Also it is absolute joke that 2 x POP 1 cities yield TWICE as many merchants as City with idk 25pop no matter what(excluding wonders ). I do think that districts should scale effectivness with pop in the city (sounds really way more natural than whatever we got in game actually). Trade district in frigging metropolis should yield more than one in 1 pop town regardless of adjecency bonuses ffs.

      Hmm, I wonder if a mod could be written (not by I) where base science , culture, gold etc is 1 per building, but scales with population instead. Multiplicity instead of addition so pop scales yields, and specialists in cities add trade yields of the yield type.

    So you say Early war is huge, but every time I try to do an early war and take some AI cities I can never hold them due to loyalty, even if they are close to my borders. Do you have any advice on that? This is on deity as well btw.

    • @ness6099
      @ness6099 3 роки тому +4

      Here’s a couple of things I’ll list off for you:
      -governors. They are the most powerful single source of loyalty. It’s great to leave Pengala parked in your highest science city but if moving him somewhere else would make the difference between keeping and losing a city it’s worth it. That’s +8 loyalty, with loyalty penalties maxing at -20.
      -garrisoning units. Leaving a unit in a city, no matter how strong it is, if it’s a stinger or giant death robot, will give you a loyalty bonus. Combine this tip and the last tip with the policy cards giving +2 loyalty from governors and +2 from garrisons and you’ve got about 14 extra loyalty in a given city.
      -Victor. He has a promotion to give +4 loyalty to your cities within a tile range. He also establishes faster making him a great way to get a city stronger and have a passive aoe loyalty bonus.
      -buy/make/repair monuments. +1 loyalty if it’s needed. Every little bit counts.
      Those were fixing the raw numbers, here’s some other tips:
      -growth. Cities don’t grow when occupied, but the big thing you want is a food surplus. Starving cities are much more likely to rebel and fed cities are more likely to stay loyal. Also for cities you founded on the border make sure they have a solid amount of population. This will give you much more loyalty pressure in your favor for that area. The population effect reduces in effect the further the two cities are from each other but scale really well the closer cities are.
      -Amenities. Positive amenities boost loyalty and the opposite for negative amenities. War weariness will eat into your loyalty pressure so try not to push war weariness. You grow war weariness with aggressive causi belli and surprise wars, as well as for each combat encounter with the enemy.
      -stay at war. Once you have a good loyalty grip, you may think that you’re fine. However, being at war with somebody effectively lets you ignore some of their loyalty pressure. Keep in mind however that war weariness will only start reducing after you make peace, so if it’s a fast war then just keep going until you have all their biggest cities. If it’s a slow war don’t settle for peace until you have a solid grip and a plan to get those cities to grow for more loyalty pressure long enough for war weariness to go away.
      -golden age. If you are in a golden age you will have more loyalty pressure. If the enemy is in a golden age they will have more loyalty pressure. The AI on Deity will almost all the time have a classical era golden age which means you want to get a good grasp of loyalty pressure before the classical era starts. Otherwise it might be best to simply wait until the medieval era, since even the AI struggles to chain golden ages back to back.
      -religion. It’s not the best to go for a religion and domination, but if you do you want to make sure all cities you own follow your religion. If you founded the religion a city is following it has more loyalty towards you. If you founded a religion and a city is not following it you get less loyalty. No effects from religion if you did not found one. Most of the time this does not matter but certain civs like Byzantium and Spain can convert cities very easily before/after conquering them so if you have the faith then you can get the loyalty bonus.
      Other than that, it’s just having enough pressure in the area and keeping pressure from other civs out. Whether that be founding new cities, conquering them, or even raising enemy cities you can’t keep and founding your own where they were just to have less negative effects in a city you CAN keep.

In a new game I played continents got England was by myself on a continent so I expanded like 5 coties.to find India was with me on the continent. India and America declared war. I took over a city state and one of India cities as a result. Realized no happiness no need to make people really happy. I now lead in science and am trying for a science victory

    People ask me how the game can be fair with wonders that once you get them no one else can. Almost all wonders can be completely ignored to be honest. Their effects are great but just not worth it most of the time. +15% growth in all cities? +20% science or production in a city? Extra build charges? All these things are incredible! I would want them rather than not want them. The problem is that it doesn’t do as much as one would think.
    Let’s say someone gets Oxford and Kilwa in the same city with the perfect setup for +50% science in that city and +15% in the rest of their cities. That doesn’t do much good without the good campuses to use the bonus. Even with good campuses, another player in the game can use the production they saved to get more eurekas than you, giving them a discount on upcoming techs, or on builders, giving them a more developed empire than yours, or units, which will take that wonder from you for neglecting your military to focus on wonders.
    There’s countless interactions like this with wonders. Culture victory is the one where certain wonders like Eiffel or Christo matter the most, and even then there are work arounds every other player can do. You get more tourism from national parks and seaside resorts? Cool, I have all the great writers and artifacts.
    Just go for what you can get and move on when you can’t.

      You can always go and take those wonders from AI. Early game is more important in my opinion, you need to focus on scouting the land, dropping few cities and doing some basic infrastructure and get ready for a fight, because AI WILL attack you on deity if you have less troops then them.

I refused to buy any expansions until GS thinking loyalty mechanics were dumb and just make everything harder. I was so wrong, loyalty mechanics, when used to your advantage, is AWESOME also GS doesn't really add anything... BUT it makes it 5000% more fun. It's really fun playing without in the first place (I never play Apocalypse mode any more and turn disasters down to 1) but the only thing it really adds is Future Age which isn't even entered into in 80% of my games. But it's fun to play the first few times and having the complete set of civs IS great. Just really not necessary like Rise And Fall.

Occasionally something swift for taking cities or survivng raids, but most of the time it's bomb/shell in em into submission and then roll in and hold.
      There is of course the long range artillery option if they have no military to attack you.
