Civilization 5 Tutorial - How to defend, retreat, negotiate a great peace deal (land combat tips)

[@biggestboofer]

I never expected very many if any Civ 5 tutorials or videos to be being made in 2021, given as Civ 6 has been out for several years now. Thank you.

[@JumboPixel]

I honestly thought nobody would watch them, but the comments on previous episodes inspired me to try again :)

[@gliese832c]

@@JumboPixel I've seen many people prefer Civ V over Civ VI online. As for me, I can only comment on Civ 5 because that's the only that I played and still am playing.

[@kennethkho7165]

@@JumboPixel I only play civ 5 because civ 6 looks horrific.

[@collosalphd5477]

I have civ 4 but I can’t find any tutorials like this on it

[@JarvoD]

​@JumboPixel I really enjoy your guide videos covering Civs you can play, I would love it if you eventually had a video for each civ in the game. Even civs I don't want to play I watch because I find them very interesting and entertaining. Thanks for your hard work!

[@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat]

You should pillage on offense too. Running Calvary, tanks, helicopters, etc ahead of your attack force deep into enemy territory you can pillage luxury resources to cause unhappiness spikes, pillaging iron/oil will weaken enemy troops, pillaging uranium keeps them from building nukes, pillaging trade routes yields huge gold, and pillaging railroads reduces production. If you find a fork in a railroad or the meaty trunk at the root of a railroad network connecting to the capital, you can cut the production of their entire empire by 25% in one attack that heals your unit and gives you gold.

[@noahholland7655]

Yeah honestly it's so nice to see this video, all the other videos are super old and its refreshing to know people still play civ v!

[@JumboPixel]

Oh that’s awesome to hear. Honestly when I look back at my older ones I can feel how outdated they are... 🙅‍♂️

[@DavidAndrews-eb7gm]

One tactic you didn’t mention. If you don’t think you can hold the city sell improvements. You can sell one per turn. I tend to focus on high value or production buildings but, depending on circumstances, deleting happiness, science or culture buildings can cripple an empire, especially if it’s their capital.

[@irathi2722]

Also - if you hold a city you know you're going to loose, find the most expensive building and sell it before it is lost! - not sure if you covered that point.

[@DavidAndrews-eb7gm]

Posted the same before I saw your comment.

I'm a massive Civ5 fan, playing it for almost a decade. I've had a long vacation from the game though and when I returned recently, i found myself weak and losing. Those tutorials help me regain my lost skills, so TYSM

[@here_bedragons]

Been playing Civ V with friends of late (we’ll add in an AI or 2 to shake things up a little), so it’s nice having modern vids to check out and make sure I understand how the game runs on a deeper level ^.^

[@damiancressy9071]

Thank you so much, great video as always. Keep going!

[@JumboPixel]

You rock! Thanks for the comment and support 😎

[@B_men_apo]

You are very good at explaining civ 5 🙏

[@JumboPixel]

You are a legend for saying so 👌

[@Jack-kx5rf]

My first ever attempt at a domination victory ended with the citadel exploit. I had a single cub left and like 10 great generals. I had so many I just placed a citadel near my land and took some of his. I ended up training up a settler and taking it right up to his capital and spammed the citadels so the only land his capital had left was the city. That mechanic is so broken.

[@El_Presidente_5337]

Why have I begun to watch CIV V tutorials? I have more than enough hours in it but also haven't played it since 2019 and don't plan on returning lol.

[@encycl07pedia-]

Thank you for this. I've been playing Civ 5 for years and had no idea that the citadel actually did damage to enemy troops. I pretty much always used it to expand borders... I guess I figured any damage it did was due to me repelling an attack near it.

[@prototype434]

Was literally dusting off this game a day ago. How convenient!

[@JumboPixel]

Wicked! Maybe a one-city challenge is what you need to get back into it?

[@jakebhaj2041]

Keep up these please!!

[@JumboPixel]

There's more in the video oven!

[@xx_trickscopez_xx6930]

Thank you so much!

[@JumboPixel]

You're welcome!

[@motolon]

Good video! Keep it up!!

[@JumboPixel]

Cheers! 🙂

[@Burnhill10]

I play civV for 3 months now, still leaning the game. This is very helpful. I didn’t know the citadel are a bit overpowered. Do they also work when attacking navel units?

[@JanBetonnetje1]

Thanks dude!

[@Tuvzii]

How are you moving your units so far around 7:40

[@JumboPixel]

They're likely mounted units, potentially promoted with extra movement, and they're walking partly along roads which speed the up as well!

[@Tuvzii]

@@JumboPixel ah okay makes sense thank you

[@lux27.42]

Civ V still the best...need to make DLC leaders from Civ VI.

[@JumboPixel]

The New Frontier Pass for Civ 6 adds a lot of DLC leaders!

[@mr.l991]

Thanks bruh! This was very helpful 🙂

[@TheX4fun]

Awesome peace deal!!! Just wanted to inform you that you are the one that is paying 30 gpt and 2 luxuries to the AI.

[@joshuachang5210]

I wish the AI were this easy on me. I razed two of his cities to the ground and they're still offering peace on the condition that I give up two cities...

[@rockl.1361]

I am terrible at warfare so this is great lol

[@alexblakeley493]

Dude you played this defense like shid. Basically let the enemy destroy units needlessly, left trebuchets undefended, and wasted promotions. You can out a citadel 1 tile outside your own territory, even if that's in enemy territory. Not a great tutorial if you're missing key important components.

[@nathangreen3072]

I don[t think your peace deal was real. I think you just screenshot the offer, but not his agreement. I've NEVER been able to get gold from a peace deal, even when devastating the other civ.

[@jasonenvy6474]

give me MOAR

[@JumboPixel]

Working on it! Feel free to let me know if you have specific requests :)
