welp never even played the game before, but I was so amused by reading your guys play by plays.. I wanted to... Its a lot of stuff to look over, but neat. So far my biggest issue is knowing what to produce in the long run... Guess you can go any route you want, be it mass murder or being a pig farmer... all depends on what you want. Trying to play it how you guys are, without governors or whatever, now I understand the happiness issue, all sorts of bastards getting angry at me. I had NO idea how to fix that, then realized its just like, point and click =o

Build temples, churches, coliseums, that kind of thing to keep people happy w/o having to make dedicated entertainers and losing productivity. Some of the wonders help too.

Generally when I play against the computer I go as a expansionist scientist, I build only enough military to defend from an attack. Generally I can expand fast enough and I have such a technology lead that if anyone attacks me, I can create an undefeatable army of like 10 units and whipe anyone out. Then again, I haven't played against a human ever :).

Raising the luxary rates with one of the advisors will also help keep your people happy. If needed, you can zoom to the city and click on one of the squares being used to create an entertainer.

Oh, and play on Chieftain difficulty level if you haven't. It's much easier to learn how to play on the easiest difficulty.

I zoomed in extra close and took a screenshot of San Vidle, the most beautiful city in the empire.
