Culture Guide

A bump is a 'useless' post that doesn't say anything, just moves the thread up to the top of the table again where people will notice it.

I say we go one up and sticky this. This is something I am sure a lot of newbies will find interesting to take note of.

Does'nt really need a sticky as it can be accessed through the useful links if RTW.

Wich apparently some junior members use

But most infro in not really valid, since the real explanation is done by one of the developer in Ludus Magnus. It's also pre-1.2 patch, when you could not see culture tag for buildings.

Anyway,
Culture depends from % of your buidlings compare to other culture, with governor building worth more then other buildings.

We already have way to many stickies.
I think more then 50% of them need to be desticked, but with links to them in sticked forum index thread.

ah I see... as you can see I'm guilty of not actually reading the useful links thread :-p But then again I'm not a newbie :-D ...i hope.

Very good guide, Oaty, very useful. Well done.

**Megas Alexandros** · 07-31-2005, 11:26

Yes, definitely you are right.

Anyway, I also learned, that there are co-addictive factors as weel: if I am to raise the tax in the city, the culture penalty goes up, too.

If we play barbarian faction,we will stuck with Culture penalty problem in late game coz most city are minor or large,or hopelessly huge(we can't upgrade it).....

Personally, I think the best time to destroy the temples is right after you capture and exterminate. Public order will be high still, giving time to build up your temples. Some temples I leave in place, mainly the ones that give upgrades to weapons/armor, or that increase trade, provided it is not a shrine or temple, usually has to be large temple at least for me to leave it standing. Check out the public order to determine when is the good time to put your own temples in.

You can't really wait with foreign temples, unless their bonuses you can't get from anywhere else. PO problems are the main reason why a Rome campaign was so tedious in the later stages. @ReluctantSamurai has a ZPG guide somewhere whcih can achieve blue faces in all cities on the map, but I don't think it can be achieved with every faction.
