The agony of seeing 3 cities 7 tiles away from the colosseum...

[@JSargeK]

This was a time of development inside the Chinese empire, on a roll of a strong base they were starting harbors and expanding the borders of the capital. Minor tumult occured with the suzerainty and loyalty of La Venta trading hands away from China which was swiftly retaken. Along with the Norwegians looking to fight a religious battle in the lands of China and no recourse found in diplomacy. The powerful governors of China were growing with Pingala in the capital and now Magnus in the Northwest grasslands of Taiyuan. The strong economy led to multiple annexations of more land along with speeding along production. Most importantly of the time was the plans for the many great buildings of the governments plans, starting with the completetion of the magnificent Colosseum bringing entertainment and broadening their culture. The Colosseum was followed by development of cultural districts and campuses. The large builder class and strong training they received allowed them to help speed along the development of the Chinese infrastructure. At this time the Great Library was going to be constructed in the capital. While they were not in what historians qualify as a golden age they were in a strong developmental period in Chinese history The religious struggles continued in the capital which now refocused onto growing in population while defending from the foreign missionaries. While constructing the main wondrous buildings of the age the ever planning Chinese continued to plan ahead and what governmental, cultural and scientific accomplishments they were aiming for. This was also the first sign of the fantastic Chinese walls, the creation is a sign of the Chinese greatness. This is a mark of how their success is so great that it almost seems minor in this age of Chinese internal development. The second wonder of the age was the Mauseleun of Halicarnasus. A fantastic accomplishment for the coasts of China. Unfortunately the Great Lighthouse was made by another civilization. However a consolation came in the chance to build the Temple of Artemis. Before the final wonders of the Age came a flood in Chen. The Colossus was constructed in Chengdu to end this chapter of Chinese history and open them up to international trade. If you enjoyed this let me know, if you are really interested I also left a history book retelling on the last episode. Thanks for reading!

I'm fairly new to the game with about 70 hours in it since buying it earlier this month, but I wanted to let you know the loyalty problems when settling new cities can be avoided quite easily. The other day, I had a game where I wanted a few cities in a spot affected by a lot of negative loyalty. So I just founded the first 2 of them at the same time, and they helped each other. The same turn I settled, it said it would would rebel within 6 and 7 turns respectively, but the turn after, it said it would be loyal within 2 turns. An interesting video would be to play around with this to see if you could find a limit to what is possible with this trick. I'm a big fan of your videos. You and TheSaxyGamer have helped me so much these first weeks. Keep up the great work!

Just so you know, Potato, Torres del Paine is pronounced "Tohr-Ehz dell Pie-Nay." It is a blend of Spanish and native Chilean languages that means "Towers of Blue." I did a research paper on this natural wonder for a geology class I'm taking in college. In case you or anyone else is interested, it is composed primarily of yellowish-gray granite peaks situated on top of a gabbro-diorite laccolith (This feature used to be an underground magma chamber). It is also located in the third-most southern National Park in the world- just behind to other national parks that are also in Chile. Additionally, the peaks are surrounded by numerous glacial features and beautiful, sky- blue lakes where several fossils have been found. Have fun reaping the benefits from this gorgeous place as China- love the series, keep it up, man!

I like playing this civ because it is extremely strong (t0) in science and culture. Apadana+wonders gets you a ton of envoys(in this meta any civ with an extra edge in controlling city states is greatly advantageous, e.g. Greece and Hungary), the Great Wall is a good source of culture or tourism, and builders +1 charge(which can save a ton of faith/production since these two victories require a lot of builders.

I think one downside of making wonders this way is that when you get beaten to making it by another civ, I don’t know if your city recovers the production after. Usually you get a production refund if your city is actively building the wonder when another civ steals it. I could be wrong on this though. Also I know I am commenting on an old video xD.

Hey, Potato, what's the highest score you've ever achieved in a game of civ(in the current DLC, not including mods or scenarios). Mine is 3420 with Hojo Tokimune of Japan(Nippon). For me, second place is pretty close too: 3380 with Pachacuti of the Incan Empire(Tawantinsuyu).

[@cooolbigguy]

What did you do to achieve high scores? I never get more than 2000

[@PotatoMcWhiskey]

don't know, probably not high because I don't optimize for score.

[@calencrawford2195]

@@cooolbigguy I always play super risky and draw out the game to produce as many high-score things as possible. Wonders like Taj-mahal are instrumental, as well as city-states. I usually go into a war to pick up more score and dominate the game. I settle the entire game, and my first few settlers never have a unit to protect them. At the end, I usually have 12 cities that I made and ~20 that I took. I always win as slowly as possible and try to become friends with all the weakest civilizations in the game. I declare war on any civ which is too strong or poses a threat of any kind to me. For example, I won a diplomatic victory with Suleiman after declaring war on everyone and leaving only one civ with just enough cities to not fall due to loyalty pressure, getting a huge religion which took up all of my territories, building as many wonders as I could in places which it wouldn't impede my progress to do so, and overall dominating the game. TL:DR: You have to dominate every aspect of the game, and declare war until only one civ is left. You also have to delay victory as long as possible while keeping your puppet weak.
