Penty November 9, 2005 Author Share Penty Member November 9, 2005 I find the best way to upgrade all the units of a certain type is to find one then hold down ALT while doing the upgrade to that one unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillow_Head November 9, 2005 Share Brillow_Head Member November 9, 2005 Hm, I thought that upgraded all the unit in that city? A couple things I'm noticing. 1) I cant make money. 2) My people are angry. 3) I have to spend money on culture so they are happy. 4) I have to keep research at like 30% or I lose money. 5) I have banks, markets, courthouses and I'm still going broke. 6) I have colloseums and theaters, resources and military making happy people and they are still miffed at me. I'm also finding that my cities need to be spread out in order to grow effectively. Also, I need to focus on tile improvements that earn money. I agree we should take out eqypt.

ScubaDan November 9, 2005 Share ScubaDan Member November 9, 2005 There was a point last night that I was -11gp/turn, but I had just mauled a couple barbarian villiages so I was flush with cash. Now I have research at 80% and I'm making +5gp/turn. I think it's cause of the number of cities I have. I did have to build markets and courthouses in them to get back into the black, but the more cities you have the more $$$ you can generate if you have the right city improvements. You can also set the city governor in your good income-generating cities on maximum commerce to improve cash-flow. For happiness, you can't let your cities grow to fast, or they'll get miffed real fast. Depending on your civices, you can combat the sad faces with military units/buildings, religious buildings, and in the larger cities make some of the citizens priests. And of course you can build wonders that will improve city mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillow_Head November 9, 2005 Share Brillow_Head Member November 9, 2005 Right, have most of that. It struck me that the only land tiles producing more than 2 gold was my water territories. Flat, grasslands or deserts do not go very far in producing money. I have to rebuild cottages to just get my income up. I'm also moving west as you could tell toward the end there.

Penty November 10, 2005 Author Share Penty Member November 10, 2005 Remember that you can't expand to infinity without having major problems. It is better to have a few really big cities then lots of small ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VooDooPC November 10, 2005 Share VooDooPC Member November 10, 2005 How big can the cities get? My Kyoto is level 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
