Difficulty settings as a new player
Posted: Mon May 08, 2017 3:08 am
Hi there,
I am a civ vet, but new to freeciv and this forum. I tried a couple of games, (the tutorial and one that I created), earlier today. I am not sure what the difficulty settings were for the tutorial, but I put the difficulty on normal for the second game. In both games I got completely destroyed. In the first game I was overrun by my neighbour's ironclads around 700 CE. The same thing happened in the second game, though with riflemen. Is there an option I need to change? Did anyone else have a similar experience when he or she first started? I am just wondering because this obviously seems a little off. I am naturally playing the latest version; I think it is 2.5.6.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
