If you declare war on an AI you immediately get the tech from the research agreement and all resource trades are canceled but you keep the gold. This is pretty abusable -.-

ChristofferC said:Sorry, I worded it a bit poorly. If you trade a resource for a lump sum of gold with a civ and then go to war with that civ you get the resource back and you keep the gold.

MapMan said:I don't know how to play this game lol. Its 1500 AD and Im still fighting with pikemen. I wanted a science win so I hoped to expand a little on untaken land and cooperate with other civs. Instead I get betrayed by everyone around. First, they want a pact of cooperation, I give them free shit and few turns later they bombard me with shitloads of units. This applies to every civ I met. It's like they know I'm a Pole and they need to betray me to keep historical accuracy. Is the key to victory abusing flaws of the game? Spamming trade posts, city states as a source of food and culture? Or simply making a few strong units and steamrolling through enemies claiming their shit?
MapMan said:Shall I actually capture cities or just fuck their shit up and back off? Or maybe raze some cities down, push him back to capital?
This. Also, don't ever get tricked by the AI when it surrenders half of its empire to you during peace talks. This will royally fuck your empire happiness.Better yet SELL them to AIs, they pay insane money for those cities. 3+k plus 2-3 resources is not uncommon.

Grunker said:My very first game I was leading by ALOT of victory points. Finally China and America teamed up, raped me, and taught me the value of defensive units in ciV. Had it happen a couple of other games, of course then I raped them instead.
So yeah, it happened to me at least.
