What I have in my Sim ruleset is that you can build (medieval) Workshop/Manufaktur, but once you build a Factory in the city, the Manufaktur becomes a museum and gives you 2 Gold instead of 2 Production. You may want to think about what would be the effect of the older walls once the new ones are bu...

I'm probably too old, but newer Civ games (3 or 4 and onwards) have absolutely no appeal to me. Civ is about complexity and choices, and for that I want to be able to swallow huge chunks of data at the same time. And newer Civs are all about artistic and realistic visuals, while for readability what...

Also, I don't know if commercial Civ games have such stable Longturn communities. Or anything resembling Longturn. I know for a fact that I would not be playing it if otherwise.

Okay, I made this post seven years ago and in the meantime more or less solved with the Sim ruleset: I cram the map with AI nations (which is basically very realistic, if you look at real history) and, in order to expand even a little bit, you MUST build a military to fight them and gain any sensibl...

Well, usually my main goal is to have fun, but in order to have fun, you have to survive first :D Can't say much about strategies, I guess the first goalpost is expand as much as possible without overstretching. But most of the time, more land and more cities means more power. Get the next governmen...

Does anyone know of a good free Civ clone or one of the older games (I'll accept 1-4) that play in html5 somewhere or flash. What am I supposed to do at work? Living in a post freeciv world... A harsh realm. Edited by Sandtrix 2 days ago - 8:15 PM You mean something like these? https://www.myabando...

I don't know if you already found this, but all unit (and other) commands are available in the menus. For example, you build a road by pressing R, but you can also select Work -> Build Road from the top menu. Shortcuts are listed next to commands so you can learn all of them simply by exploring (and...

Here ya go, mate :) https://discord.gg/SpWeujW This is not a "general Freeciv", but a spinoff called Longturn/Freeciv21, aimed at multiplayer games. But of all other subcommunities, we are most into cooperative modding. More about the Freeciv21 project: https://github.com/longturn/freeciv2...

For reasons which elude me, Freeciv 3.0 changed the default ruleset to civ2civ3, which is game-breakingly bad in numerous ways, the main one being that everything that was worthwhile in the classic ruleset has been nerfed to prevent anyone from gaining any kind of meaningful advantage. I'm curious ...

I have a few noob questions since I'm used to civ 5 and while freeciv looks cool, it's really confusing. First of all, I start sometimes with two settlers and one just acts like a worker. What? Second, I meet people and create ceasefires and then all of the sudden my cities are taken over. What is ...
