And if you do have Knights you can capture more than one city of your bellicose opponents. The Court of Camelot turns your Horsemen into Knights. A few Pikemen can also help: they will support your attackers when your enemies will counterattack you.Īlso, never stop searching for Artifacts. You may also want to use up all your available Spies in order make the defenders of your opponent less efficient. If they’re also equipped with the Infiltration upgrade it’s a shame not to attack. Your armies are capable enough and if they are upgrated to Veterans, they have good chances to take the city. Don’t aim for the Capital, but for a small city close to your borders. If you are already in a war and you have at least two armies of Horsemen, don’t hesitate to attack an opponent’s city. (More on that soon.) Help your Horsemen move fast by building roads. Your opponents will already have attacked you by now. While one Pikeman in each city should be enough at the early stages of the game, a Horseman must be around. When you get a few Horsemen send your Pikemen home to defend your cities. The fourth Settler will come by gaining 100 gold, which is not difficult. You will soon have a new Settler with no sweat. If one of the tasks is to explore 30 land tiles or 100 coast tiles, don’t miss that chance. By that moment the game will have offered you the chance to reach a new mini achievement. I found my second City somewhat close to the Capital to gain time. Right after the two Pikemen I start building a Settler. By eliminating Barbarians they will become stronger (don’t forget to attack Barbarians on a Hill, so you will avoid a defeat) and they will get valuable rewards such as money, Horsemen, a Galley maybe etc. Eliminate them!īy the moment I found my Capital I go for two Pikemen. Not many opponents aroundīarbarians are your friends. Incense and Silk are also great especially if you go for a cultural victory. Soon enough you will have an idea of the terrain around your Capital.Īlso, look for tiles with useful resources: Gems and Wheat are great in the beginning of the game, since money is sparse. Since the Deity level is demanding, you will need at least one more strong city. As a result, good terrain is absolutely necessary. Forests are fine in the beginning, but without Hills and Mountains (at least 2 tiles of each other) your Capital will decline by time. So you need Forests, you need Hills, and you need Mountains. You definitely need a very powerful Capital: a city which will be fairly big and ultra productive. So let’s cheat: Start the game again and again and again until you get: A decent terrain On Deity level, the opponents seem to always be one or several steps ahead no matter how you play the game. If the most demanding levels leave you a sense of unfairness in Civ, I’m with you. But yet, before you start playing on this level, make sure you have achieved many victories on the previous ones. After playing several times I can now say, it’s doable. In the beginning of this journey, winning the Deity level was out of the question for me. But if you are a militarist, I don’t think my strategy can really help you. Most of the tips in this guide can apply to players who aim to achieve a Technologic or Economic victory. Now, I can hear you say: “I am not Greek/don’t want to play with Alexander” or “I don’t care for a cultural victory. Playing with Alexander (you see, I’m Greek, so Alexander is my only choice).In the following paragraphs, I will try to explain to you how to achieve:
