a desert is described as a place where evaporation far exceeds precipitation. That is technically what happens in Antarctica but i think it is classified as ice desert so a bit different.

evaporation in cold climate should be forbidden. i hate my ice cubes just up and vanishing in my ice box

Antarctica only gets an inch or two of snow a year. It just never melts and forms the ice sheets.

@TheDanc1nghawk I'd guess that there is still some sublimation happening

BTW, a desert is an area that receives less than about 25 centimeters of rain per year. And even though snow is a type of precipitation, the whole continent of Antarctica fits that desert criterion and is, thus, a frozen desert. QED. 😜
@macizogalaicoАй бұрын
That's because most of the snow carried around is just eroded ice being picked up by the wind. They're more akin to sandstorms than snowstorms.

Awesome video! I have had about 8,000 faith per turn with about 30 cities fully upgraded with all of them having preserves, tons of wonders and city states that boost faith, science, and culture. All of the faith and commerce city states were owned.

Just an FYI. The Simulacron-3 is an excellent book from the 1960s, which is one of the first works that depicted virtual reality. It was turned into a faithful German TV adaptation called World on a Wire in the '70s (I think it holds up till this day), and later a looser adaptation called The Thirteenth Floor in 1999.

It's also fun to sneak a settler down to the south tundra and expand east and west as far as you can as well
A comment right from the get go: When getting so much production and being in a golden age, i find it better to hard build lots of buildings instead of buying it for faith, since that faith is going to workers and settlers (and/or everything in the city center if Valetta is in the game, but that can then be done later as well, so... settlers and builders) :D

Strategics should be spent for in-city/civ-wide yields and not just military units. Like, cash-in some strategic for production in one city... Or, some strategics give different yields: culture, faith, science, and also production. . .

Deserts are any place that sees less than 0.25 m of precipitation each year. The average for Antarctica is about 0.166 each year though, the west and east(90/270) have remarkably higher precipitation and the total continent receives highly variable amounts of precipitation. The wiki - en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_of_Antarctica I did a brief google to confirm this and the wiki citations look good if a bit old. Given that the region is warmer now than it was that data might be bad, but I’m not an expert.
