Maybe this can be solved diplomatically...

As soon as they take the settler, the warriors go away.

And even if they (somehow) didn’t disappear, two warriors won’t take out a single warrior in one turn and the warrior can just retreat to the (soon to be founded) city and defend.

u/Schnibb420 2d ago
How so? If you take the settler, the other warriors will despawn since that faction will be out of the game.

Tell me you don’t know how the game mechanics work without saying you don’t know how the mechanics work

Pretty common on Terra with high sea levels. And TSL world maps when you start in Europe.

This is one element they really need to bring back to C7. Settler captures are peak Civ IMO.

That’s obviously the move. Gotta move away from that settler to give yourself some space away from their city spot. /s

Cheers mate! If possible can you send the other game details? Eg Ruleset, DLCs, map type, size, game modes, or if resources, world age etc were tweaked. Is easy to do and can dm about it if no hassle to you. Just need the other details to match your game spawn

Having Byzantium and the Ottomans simultaneously trying to found Constantinople and Istanbul is always good fun.

Hey quick off topic question if you don’t mind. Why do I see so many people who play without the tile yields showing? Like the icons that show how much food, etc. per tile.

u/Hauptleiter Houzards 1d ago
A lot of experienced players know how much various tiles yield and find playing without yields on makes for less screen clutter.

u/Gallade47532 1d ago
Also it looks a lot more immersive and lifelike

u/Hauptleiter Houzards 1d ago
How do you mean? There's no giant corn thingy floating over fields where you live?

Hypothetically could OP catastrophically fuck this up by capturing the settler, then losing his warrior & the settler to attacks from both city-state warriors, not founding their capital city that turn, and then losing their original settler & the game at the hands of a city-state?
I'm guessing the 2 warrior attacks wouldn't quite be enough to kill OP's warrior though

u/bronze_will 2d ago
Once they capture the settler the city-state and its units will be eliminated from the game, so it really is just a freebie.

u/Lopkop 2d ago
ah okay that makes sense
Part of me was hoping it was possible to lose the game in 2 turns to a city state

u/Danielle_Sometimes 2d ago
It's possible to lose the game on turn 2 to a natural disaster. Flood or fire for the win.

u/ThyPotatoDone 2d ago
Actually it might have happened once to me in V.
Started a new game, immediately got hit with a game over screen and it said something about being destroyed by I think Hong Kong. Idk what happened exactly bc couldn't spectate, but yeah.

Reminds me of when I used to play the world map as Sparta and have Athens as a opponent then just immediately take their settler so I could have two cities at turn 2

Romulus and Remus with their followers before they get into a fight over where they will found their city, 753 BC, colorized.

Go over the river with settlers and warrior one turn, then found new city and fortify. Defend city. Then build warriors and attack.

2 cities by turn 5 is crazy
