Civilization: Rapa Nui

Leader: Hotu Matu'a

Requires GS.

Detailed approach: The Rapa Nui don't need to spend a lot of time worrying about where they settle their first city: they can easily change their capital later. With their massive bonuses towards volcanoes, and since they can enter ocean tiles as early as the Norwegians, the Rapa Nui can race towards any victory.

Civilization ability: Hanau

Volcanoes provide all districts with a standard adjacency bonus. Coast tiles provide all districts with a minor adjacency bonus.

I have already done Hawaii, but I feel I could do better, so I present my rework.

As I step out of my palace, I see my people, enjoying the sandy beaches and palm trees, our magnificent sunsets, and our volcanoes. Other empires pollute the air with their emissions, but through this they gain power to maximize their cities. Should I follow suit? It carries benefits. But Hawaii is like no other place in the world, and I cannot tarnish it for the sake of progress. May its beauty last forever.

Agenda Disapproval: If even the city-states of this world ignore you, I can see no signs of your mana.

Attacked: Ready my koa warriors! A fool, and an enemy of mine, wishes to fight. We shall bring him to his knees.

Declares War: Hawaii is a beautiful land, and you are tarnishing its glory. So I can see no other option but to go to war with you.

Defeated: You wretch! How could you have destroyed Hawaii?! Very well, our volcanoes will consume you.

Hey guys! I just wanted your thoughts and opinions here, so nothing big at all, but I noticed ffh2 is actually really easy and I always win. I turned up the difficulty to prince and they never gave me bad research, the ai are not biast against me, the events are balanced, my military has no nerfs because I'm human, it just makes the game smarter unlike the base pack. It appears to me that ffh 2 prince level just makes the ai smarter.

Civilization: Palmyrene

Leader: Zenobia

Civilization: Cree

The white man is here, whether we like it or not. We could go to war with the white man, and try to drive him out of our lands. But this would be illogical.

Civilization: English

Churchill can push England toward a Domination or a Diplomatic victory, with Science as a backup.

Attacked: “We shall defend our country, whatever the cost may be! We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, and we shall never surrender!"

Declares War: “Never will I worry about action. But my inaction scares me, as it has let you grow powerful for far too long. Now, all I can offer you are blood, toil, sweat, and tears.”

Defeated: “So this country is subjugated and starving, but our Empire and our friends beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, will carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, you are destroyed.”

Greeting: “As Prime Minister, it is my duty to let my advance worrying become advance thinking and planning. I hope that you feel the same.”

Declares War: Your people need a strong ruler, a one that is better than yours. I am that kind of ruler.

Defeated: My hatred of you is indescribable. My people will endure!

Invites You to Capital: Antananarivo is where I govern my faithful people, but where is it that you stand?

Accepts Invitation: Better to start things off in a friendly way, I suppose.

I NEED HELP!!!! My friend and I are playing a normal game,but we want to start war with Russia and China.We can't even start one because all the other AI civs are allied to them or have friendships. Can someone please help and tell me a way around this?!?!?!?!

The Huns are back, and have pretty much the same concept: conquest. Their Hunnic Cavalry will allow for early harassment, and from then on it will take quite a lot of effort to stop their army. However, domination isn't their only option, as some of their bonuses to culture could snowball uncontrollably and lead to a culture victory.

Ability: Scourge of All Nations

Razing cities generates no Grievances. All units gain +5 Combat Strength when inside enemy territory. +1 Culture per turn for every conquered city in your territory.

Unique Unit: Hunnic Cavalry

Replaces Horseman. Has a ranged attack and a range of 2, and has a ranged attack with 30 ranged strength and 4 Movement. Has a "War Cry" ability that provides Culture from kills equal to 100% of its Combat Strength.

Unique Infrastructure: Yurt

Leader: Attila

Ability: Sword of Attila

+50% Production towards military units while at war. Units trained in conquered cities gain +2 Combat Strength.

Agenda: Universal Ruler

Attila wants to have a large territory made up mostly out of conquered cities, and likes those who follow this approach.

Greetings: I am the mighty Attila the Hun, the scourge of God, and king of the Huns, Goths, the Danes and the Medes. Are you even half as strong as me?

Agenda Approval: Your empire is a respectable one. Now let's hope it stands.

Agenda Disapproval: Look at the size of your empire! You make me not even want to try and conquer you.

Attacked: You planned this out, right? Because now you are at war with the Huns. Prepare to be wiped out.

Declares War: My cavalry shall shout its war cries once again, and we shall rule the world. Let's begin with you!

Defeated: Are you pleased with yourself? I was going easy on you.

Quote: "Superficial goals lead to superficial results."

Delegation: My envoys are here to show you that we aren't complete barbarians. Here, have some horses and bracelets.

Accepts Delegation: Thanks. I love treasure. Don't ask how I get most of them, though.

Rejects Delegation: Your petty gifts are rejected.

Accepts Friendship: I can't believe I'm doing this, but our two people are now allies. May we reach the ends of the earth together.

Rejects Friendship: Friendship? We are the Huns. We don't thrive by making friends.

Asks for Friendship: You seem to know what you're doing. Together, we can conquer the other fools of the world.

Denounces: The Huns are at least ten times more civilized than you.

Is Denounced: It takes less courage to criticize the decisions of others than to stand by your own. You are a coward!

Invitation to City: Would you like to visit a nearby city of ours? I assure you, it's definitely mine. Totally not someone else's.

Invitation to Capital: You seem like a good victi-er, I mean, diplomatic partner. I will show you my capital, if you show me yours.

Civilization: Akkadian

Leader: Sargon

Detailed approach: The real highlight of the Akkadians comes from their leader, Sargon. Under Sargon, city walls are not an obstruction when trying to capture cities, and capturing cities helps you make up for the time lost in technology research. Akkadia's unique unit and infrastructure both fuel an easy Domination Victory. The Four Corners of the World ability allows them to go for a more peaceful path if they so choose.

Civilization ability: Four Corners of the World

Plantations, Pastures, and Farms over Resources grant +1 Gold. Trade routes to Akkadian cities provide +1 Gold and +1 Culture to both the sender and receiver for every Pasture, Plantation, or Farm over a Resource in the city, but -1 Gold for every Mine, Camp, or Quarry in that city (minimum of 0 Gold). Cities receive +1 Production for every Trade Route to or from the city.

All military land units do full damage to city walls. Capturing a city belonging to a more technologically advanced civ grants a free technology that you have unlocked but not researched. +1 Production in all cities towards military land units.

Portugal is a domination civilization at heart. They should prioritize exploration first, and then start settling(and maybe capturing)cities not on their home continent.
