Well, you *can* have both, you just need to do it from the world builder

How many expansions do you get in a city hit with a culture bomb from an artist?

BFC +1 expansion? or more?

Beorn · 19-02-2008, 17:10

You get 4000; BFC is 10, +1 is 100, +2 is 500, +3 is 5000. So in a city with some culture potential, you get close to BFC +4. In a 0 culture city, you get BFC +3 and (in war-time when you just captured the place) you automatically quell the resistance.

For me this is a tactic that I may try out for my HoF games at CFC.. trying to win Domination games.. I figure on a small map each culture bomb may account for as much as 5-10% of land area.. I just need to see how quickly I can generate Great Artists to see if it will help in my quest

Once you get caste system, if you can build up a big GP farm (maybe with a mass-warrior HR happy abuse) it should go really fast. Arboria maps might be friendly for that because of the forest health and deers.

I do not have the game in front of me atm but how any tiles will a BFC+2 city cover?

Any financial civ is usually a great start. I like Elizabeth a lot. Financial and Philosophical is a good combination...

I guess I should specify.. I want to play one of the new Civ in BTS.. I have played Vanilla and all of its Civ's and I am just looking for someone new now that I have BTS
