My spawn forced me to stick with one city until I researched cartography, and because of all the cool shit you've taught me on your channel I was able to turn it into my second immortal victory, even against a raging Kupe sailing deep sea from turn 1. I appreciate the depth and comedic value of your channel man!

    In civ 3 I used to gather a good 12-16 workers and as I conquered my opponents I built railroads to every captured city to allow my new units get to the front line ASAP and my damaged units to retreat to safety. Back in the day railroads were unlimited movement which was so OP.

    Hey Potato, I noticed in this series you spent some time looking for various things on the map (ex. coal in this part) without using the "Search" function. I've found it very useful since they added it to the game, especially in later eras as my empire gets really big. Is there a reason you don't typically use this? I imagine when you have as much experience in the game as you have, it might actually be easier to just scan for the icons... Just curious on you thoughts. Thanks!!!
