[@zthompson2350]

Not me, unfortunately. While I understand the benefits of city-states, I usually only work to be ally's with a couple of them. Too often, doing quests for them can be overly burdensome when I'm trying to lead my own empire. That said, I do typically go for patronage and that first branch that puts the resting location at +25%

[@AugmentedOwl]

I am venince in the city state way- but then I also invest heavily in expansion. Woo for cities~!

[@pablomendoza4897]

zthompson2350 Yeah, i also find that doing missiosns for all the city states can be a little hard, so i basically do the same you say, and when i am stupidly rich, i just give them money :p

[@TheEpicWin126]

Yeah, my main thing is just being Montezuma and using autocracy to fear my way into their hearts, becoming allies with like 30 city states without having to do quests. I'm pretty sure that is how most people do it anyways.

[@HolyMapleSyrupManJack]

Abe Toecon what

[@Fkruus]

while it wouldn't immediately break his alliances, it would significantly reduce his gold income meaning that he couldn't keep buying the city states loyalty for then next world Congress. You're correct that if it was the first vote he could have repealed it but because he already put other delegates in other positions he lost this vote. While not a perfect explanation, it shows the idea behind the script. if the vote actually happened as it did in the video it would screw him.

I actually won on Immortal that way. With Venice, to be honest, so that made it easy!

I would never have an ill word for Sweden; it's a beautiful country, with great people. But somehow, throughout my years of playing Civ 5, Gustavus Adolphus became my archnemesis; he just constantly ended up in my games, always as a close neighbor I ended up warring or just conflicting with. Love the Sabaton songs about him, though.

[@pjrt_tv]

"I thought it was candy, but it is pigs!" I thought the same thing when I played Civ 5! I seriously could not understand the picture of truffles. You think your entire life that it is candy (Chocolate Truffles) and all of a sudden see a pig eating something off the ground as representing "truffles". Very confusing, I thought maybe the pig was eating candy off the ground, but that made no sense.

[@Peusterokos1]

Pedro Rodriguez Pigs are used to find truffles. They have a much better sense of smell than dogs, and are also more dedicated when trained properly. Nonetheless, the image for truffles is highly confusing, even if you have this prior knowledge.

[@misterbadguy7325]

Truffles are actually a kind of fungus that grows in the wild. Pigs love truffles and can root them out, so the "truffles" luxury is just a forest where pigs have managed to sniff some out.
