An island would negate the purpose of the orc mod and the siegers in civ forge. I'm rather tired of ice maps myself, so I'll look for something tropical. Maybe there will be undead dinosaurs.

Edit: I'm going to start looking in unleashed, unless you guys really don't want unleashed.

All my useless immigrants lately have gotten the job "practice target" and told to stand in the catapault range.

Okay, what kind of map do we want? Any suggestions on worldgen?

There will be magma.

Anyone interested in starting a sucession game with Civ Forge (either normal or unleashed) and the orc mod?

≠ is a standard math symbol. != is used as an equivalent for the sake of convenience as very few computers have a ≠ key, so it saves programmers the trouble of remapping their keyboard or punching in an alt code every time.

Of course, if you're looking for trade goods, furniture is a bad idea due to weight.

The quickest strike I ever had, was the third tile I dug out on the map.

Bet the king wasn't too happy about having to start off in 3x3 soil quarters!

Don't know. He was eaten by orcs.

To maximize value in glass production from sand, you need to make clear glass. That requires you to burn a log to ash at the wood furnace, turn the ash into potash at the ashery, bake the potash into pearlash at the kiln, then make clear glass at the glass furnace. Note that this will require two fuel (one at the kiln and one at the glass furnace) unless you're using magma.

If you can find rock crystals, those can be substituted for sand in the same recipe to make crystal glass, which is far more valuable.

I'm not certain what product is the most valuable. Probably goblets, but that's just a guess.

Keep in mind that many modern processors are faster than older ones with the same clock speed, due to architecture improvements that allow more operations per cycle.

Try removing the doors. THat will eliminate all door issues completely. If you can't do that, "t" the door and see if it's forbidden.

Maybe try fertilizing your fileds.

More precisely, "Orc" is the common form of the Black Speech word uruk, which properly applies only to the soldier-orcs of Mordor. The lesser Orcs are technically called "snaga." Generally, except for in The Hobbit, (A work that began as a standalone but was retconned into the same universe as the Silmariilion, and one in which only the lesser snaga appear) Orc is used as a general term for all three Orcish races, snaga, uruk, and Saruman's uruk-hai that appeared near the end of the Third Age.
