    They really need to put R. Lee Ermey in as your military adviser... it would be a beautiful thing.

    I still say Civ is the greatest computer game series ever.

    Beating Civ 5 in Deity isn't that hard. Brave New World is a whole different matter. Adding that faith resource made the game a whole dimension more difficult.

    If you have no iron in your area, the best strategy is to build as much science as you can on a path to Engineering, build the Great Wall, then get on a path to Education, which includes Civil Service enabling you to temporarily build Pikemen. After that, get on a path to gunpowder to finally protect your civilization. Once you have Musketmen, gift your Pikemen so you don't pay maintenance on them to an allied City-State that is providing you good resources so that a rival civilization doesn't conquer them and have you lose those resources. Once you have Chemistry, build canons and take a city with lots of wonders and one that has iron so you can begin building your maritime technologies and build Frigates.
