[QUOTE="Blockinlick, post: 5276, member: 234"] The lack of unit stacking is the biggest reason I can't play 5 or 6. I mean, overall those last two iterations nerfed the military aspect into the ground. You pretty much HAVE to focus on either the cultural or space victory. Conquest just became a fluke or pipe dream. My playstyle is typically to be peaceful early game and then go for the conquest mid-game. In 5 or 6, if you try to do that, the AI civs will have strong city defenses and you'll flop on the first cities' doorstep that you try to attack. Since you can only have one unit per tile, you can't just bring a bunch of catapults to break their defense. If you do bring any catapults, the city defense feature will ensure they're either dead or wasteful. You have no choice but line up units single-file to be slaughtered one by one. Just a big middle finger to people who play to conquer. [/QUOTE]
