Talking Caesar yoga and Civilization V

Started before 10 minutes.

Gods and Kings.

Augustus Caesar - Rome.


I started with 12 warriors, 10 peasants and 3 deer around good valley with lake.
Shame, but my experience with such games is Master of Magic only. And Dune 1&2 maybe..

ha ha ha
Fog, fog and fog...

Caro Capo,
You know this game before me again?

Basta! I give up for ever..
There is no game which i started and You say:
- O, yoga, i know this game already...

Wait, wait.. There is a game I passed but You no.
Ha ha ha
BoK.
Mama mia....
Pls. do not cry i know You do not like BoK.

Grazie for encouragement, i need it.

After so much RPG I am little bored with this genre and want to play something very new for me.
My experience with this style is very poor.
But senor Japo is a good leader.

Now i have to read some Civilopedia to learn how to start..
Only one Q if You do not mind.
If You think this Q is cheating pls do not answer.

- Possible flying as Rome leader?

I like this game option very much.

yoga aka Caesar

I was wondering when will the RPGs start to bore you...so now I know.

And a little tip considering CiV, if by peasants you mean settlers, you probably won't be needing them in such great numbers and especially not in the beginning of the game.

Ave Cæsar!

I also wonder what you mean by 12 warriors and 10 peasants? You mean you have one unit of each, but each appears as a group of several people?

Listen to your advisors, they're like a tutorial.

I don't think this game is really longer than most RPGs. Growing your empire to greatness can take less than leveling up in many of them. :P

Thank You for interest of yoga played games.
You very kind.
But after 25-30 RPG even the dedicated fan as brave will say - Basta and stop!
Time for new beginning. Hmmm... The witcher 1&2 wait for me but my PC is weak for these nice games..
Would be so kind to explain the meaning of 3 numbers and 3 letters down in your signature ? Some completed games?
Merci.

@Caro Capo
Yes, the idea is the same in these games.

@Senor Japo

Ha ha ha
But Caesar can not makes a turn....
I read and read the Civilopedia but something is wrong from the very beginning as the case of my battling in Morrowind when some settings make me cry and You helped me twice then.
The game started even a little bit slow till loading. Then playing speed is good.
I am Rome Caesar. Earth.Great plains. Tiny map - Duel. 2 enemies with 4 city states. Game pace - Standard. Difficulty - 2.
But the interface is ..?
I am in some nice valley with river or lake. 3 deer. 12 men, i think they are warriors. And another unit with 9-10 men. I think they are peasants who like Master of Magic will start to build granary, university and like?
I expected to see on the left down side label Settlers and icon of Town. NO any.
I click on the small icons over the both units. Nothing happens.
I expect to see a slight sunny light showing the place of Rome. No.
Why?
Where can be my fail?
Pls i am like newborn baby. Do not laugh at me. Danke.
Maybe some patch needed or what.
Version 6.1....hmm 170 or like. Will check and tell the correct name.

crying Caesar aka brave

You don't count the individual men in your unit. That's just a cosmetic representation of your unit strength. You usually start with a warrior unit and a settler unit. You use the settler unit to build a city, otherwise you're going to lose the game fast. And then with the city, you build buildings, wonders, or more units. Settlers can build new cities, workers can improve the area around cities, scouts are good for exploring, warriors and soon archers are your first military units.

The game will pretty much tell you exactly what you need to do on the right side of the screen. Alerts will appear telling you what's going on around the world. A button over the map will direct you to things you need to do, like select what to build in your city, choose a technology to research, or units that need orders. You just keep clicking that button and doing whatever it wants you to do until it finally ends the turn.

Click there and you shall enter the fabulous world of Backloggery.

About CiV, just play in-game tutorial, it will help you understand the game much better than reading civilopedia will. You'll need that later, when you become better player and would like to try higher difficulties and improve your tactics.

Play the tutorial, it's in the single player menu. Your advisors will tell you what to do.

On top of the map at the right bottom corner there's a button that tells you what to do next ("a unit needs orders", "end turn", etc.), and you can center the map on the task by clicking it.

The units should be selected when you click on them or their icons, if they're yours.

Rome doesn't exist yet, you have to use those settlers to found it.
