Welcome to Realms Beyond Civilization!

Welcome Diamondeye. I've been lurking your SG with glee recently. Feel free to grab the download for our current Epic and Adventure and give them a whirl.

Thanks for the welcome! Just out of interest, the Deity SG or the concurrent SGs on Monarch? Because I have only played like one turnset in the Deity one, and will be on vacation for the next ten days from tomorrow, so it might be the only set I play tongue

Thought so... It's tough, but we're lucky so far, having blocked off Pacal and Louis while keeping them both around Pleased-Friendly. Now, we'll soon see whether we're able to actually pull a win off and not just bash Pacal a bit while someone else goes to the stars. rolleye

Hi to everyone!

I'm another newbie to this forum and after reading at least Kylearan's reports I think to the game as well. wink
Nontheless I'd like to take part in some of your games provided here.. But for participating I should start to improve my strategies quite a lot. So does anybody can provide me some good threads discussing some strategies?
Thx by now..

The most helpful reading on that would be the Succession Games over at Civfanatics, IMHO. Because a player's turnset is 10-15 turns only, reports tend to be a lot more detailed. Additionally, the teamplay required leads to a lot of discussions about options, alternatives and reasons for choosing those (or not).

There are several Realms Beyond succession games, too - there's a list of them on our main site as well.

Even better than reading about the games would be participating in one of them, of course. wink Being a newbie is no problem in that case, as teamplay alone will allow you to play at least one level of difficulty above your normal comfort zone easily. I know I learned the most by taking part in Succession Games. smile

Hello to everybody at realmsbeyond! I am writing my first post and am going to have a do at the latest game on here. I have been a fan of Civ since Civ 1 way back - was probably a bit young to fully appreciate it mind! Civ 2 was awesome. Enjoyed many a game using REX and then warring using railroads - unlimited movement! Civ 3 was a let down for me. The corruption was a pain in the arse and i always got fed up and quit. I remember playing one game on an Earth map and any captured city or new build produced 1 shield and 1 commerce... BORING!

Civ 4 however is so good. Stopped playing for ages and then started again when i got BTS a few months ago. Got the bug real bad again and started looking for sites for tips etc, found here!

Must admit that i love the epics/adventures on here and some of the players are immense at tatics. I would never contemplate a Deity win except on a small Pangea using a Quechua rush! angry Even then i struggle, especially once AI starts using axes!

Anyhoo... i'm looking forward to trying a few of the epics/adventures and maybe posting a report or two. jive

Hello all. I am a long time lurker who finally is going to follow through with a new years resolution - to sign up and participate here at Realms Beyond. I have been playing Civ 4 on and off since its release as well as the expansions but have been threatening (myself) to get involved here at Realms Beyond so here I am.

I have learned much lurking the threads and reports as well as following the various succession games at civfanatics. My biggest hurdle is a technical one - properly saving and then uploading pictures to be used in posts and reports. Any help would be appreciated as I would like to attempt a sponsored game here and report same in an acceptable form.

If I have breached protocal or manners in my first post then apologies to all.
