Olde Schoole Civ fan here (Civ 3 was my go to for a long time). I have had Civ 6 forever but could not just get back into it. Just tried Civ5 and have been hooked all over again. I just did a game after watching this video and adopted the techniques - easy victory for England. Long live the Queen!

[@ThatGuy-mu8hq]

Hey man, I just got into Civ 5 and while looking for tips you always help me out. Keep at it!

[@JumboPixel]

Fantastic news. I have five on the channel at the moment and they should help ya get your empire settled, fighting-fit and flourishing! Enjoy Civ ⚔

I've started to play again after so many long years and your info really helps a lot. I've always preferred to play the Arabian nation as they give double oil, extra money from oasis and bazaar. The early era also gives the Camel troops which are more powerful than any horse troops (that's what I think anyway). Again thank you for the info. ❤❤❤

Came for the naval tip and tricks. Stayed for the melee.

Archipelago, submarine, anaconda plan. Best idea I had in a while no ships were leaving Kenya for the entire war. America rules the seas

[@LakituKoopa]

what about Britain with their unique naval percs and the Line ship? Played with a friend in a session, was an island with my own navy and he came up with 4 Line ships and wrecked 3 cities within 4 turns. Not to mention that 40% of my navy went kia in the first round of the attack.

[@alexblakeley493]

It would be really helpful if you didn't put yourself in a position to lose melee units by moving in before the city is ready, keep ranged units at their max range and move them back if they get weak. Move in melee units to take the city OR take bombardment if they're strong enough.

TIme I dust this off I think. I always liked boat fights

[@Matakshaman]

What ships are that below the galley and ironclad?

[@jasonclark2050]

I just recently started playing on mac and I don't have any DLC is there any late game unit I can use to capture cities? Everything says there's no late game melee naval units.

Why don't you buy the expansions?

[@canozturk4757]

Is battleship can be use in information era?

[@JumboPixel]

Yes - but watch out for Nuclear Submarines (you may want to have some nuclear subs of your own to support your fleet by that era too!)

@@JumboPixel and i have one more question when I purchase carrier i can't get promote but sometimes I getting promote and that unpromoted carrier have only 2 cargo why this happens and how can I fix it?

[@JumboPixel]

Well, there are a number of things that could be happening here. I suspect you could be making the carriers in different cities? One city might have built buildings that give a promotion (or xp) to newly created units. I’m not sure about the second part of your question though. What cargo are you trying to move, and how many cargo slots do your other carriers have?

[@DarkSnake49542]

@@canozturk4757 if you are planning a navy based gameplay, build xp building&monument (the german one, brandebourg) in 1 city and build all your naval units there, still carrier without (supercarrier) mod is shitty :( your carrier need to take hits -without plane on it, just in case several barbarian manage to sunk it- to get xp on it but only barbarian hits (if they have the basic boats and not good ones which can destroy your units and only 1 at a time or your carrier can still be sunk)

[@alibombali]

What about the Dutch? They're also naval right?

[@R-H-B]

Not really no
