I've never been good at this game, I just play the series for the fun of it (like it should be). I'm not a noob per say, but an amateur really. So do anyone have any tips how to play the 5th edition?? I've looked for strategy guides but haven't found any... Just simple guide lines will do just fine :D |
Just mainly invest in science such as libraries, universities, etc to get the much needed lead on the other Civs. I like building the Great Library for a free science tech (build the wonders that give bonuses to science). If you expand too quickly then you better have luxury resources to please your citizens. The higher the difficulty the more easily they get pissed off. So expanding your empire requires a decent balance of making sure your people are happy. Usually, I try to save up decent amount of money so when I take over a city once it returns to production I annex it and buy a courthouse to knock off a decent amount of angry people. There are a lot of different ways to play but being ahead in technology usually makes it a lot easier to win. Once I get science and happiness buildings complete I then focus on getting a few production helping buildings out to start cranking out the troops. Make sure you have enough troops to at least hold off any enemy attack (defending your cities/territory) because if they see you are weak they might declare war on you (team up on you).

When is it a good time to expand? And what social policys is good to take? I usually try to get that free worker first. And is is still necessary to have specific cities; gold, production, science?
