Why does my Julius Caesar have a different Veni, Vedi, Vici?

Tried out caesar after buying the big bundle during the steam sale and for some reason my Caesar's Veni, Vedi, Vici grants +150 in gold, science, and culture rather than the +300 gold the wiki says I should have. Anyone know why this is?

My theory for the age transition from the exploration era to the modern era

So what if at the end of the age of exploration everybody picks an ideology like in civ 5 But in a couple turns a war breaks out between all the ideologies and from the dust of this war new civilizations arise many people gain independence And the next era of the modern age begins

First time playing civ

I recently bought civ 6 after it was recommended to me from a few friends, and have started a game as Trajan. Are there any tips anyone has for a begginer using trajan ( trying to go for cultural or science victory)?

Can you help me find which Civ game I played as a child?

My family used to have shared iPad and my father (probably) installed two civ games on there that I loved to play. I was like 8 and couldn't speak English so I sucked ass.

Here's what I remember:

They were named Civilization and Civilization II The first one had the 'games made in early 2010s' quality to it. Lot of bright colours (used for borders), these weird texture packs andit was like something between 2D and 3D ? I remember that every soldier, barbarian etc. Was shown as three guys next to eachother. And you could like merge them together. Have six of them. The Civ II was def 3D, much more refined and the gameplay was way more complex. You could rotate the map, the terrain wasn't just drawn on and there was this guy with long face who would like help you with the game (?). I never finished a game in the Civ II but I know you got to chose between diff civilizations, (I rember Aztecs, Romans, British (?), Egypt) and you started with a boat.

So sorry if this is too vague to pinpoint a specific game. I tried to find it on my own to play it again but I haven't got too far. Tried to just Google Civilization on iPad but they told me that only Civ VI is available.

Also possible it was some bootleg Civ.

Anyways, anything is helpful, thanks a lot.

Transitioning from Civ 5 to Civ 6

As a BNW-only grinder for years, I want to try moving on from Civ 5 to Civ 6. Any advice as to what are the starkest differences between the 2 games, and what I should pay attention to when trying Civ 6 out?

I have no DLC and only plan to play with Gathering Storm expansion.

I don't have DLCs anymore for Civ VI

I reinstalled Civ 6 after a while, and I found out that I don't have any of the DLCs that were included when I purchased and played the game on Steam. Can anybody help me to get my DLCs back?

Is there some way of changing/stopping the rock band jingle?

Is there a mod or some setting, it's SO annoying in the later game gearing that every single turn!

Arms trade

I'd really love to be able to trade units in civ. Somewhat like the gifting of units to citystates in civ V but as some sort of trade deal.

It would be fun to be able to buy arms from more advanced civs and sell weapons to less advanced ones. Support the war effort of other civs, buy support from others in case of a surprise war ect.

Probably won't happen anytime soon, but i'd love to see it.

Couple questions

Just finished one of my games which is pretty rare because I am awful at restarting games for various reasons. Anyway in this game two things happened. The first was that I took out Mongolia early in the game and kept all their cities. Fast forward to the 1900's and they call an emergency on me over one of the cities. How long can they hold onto things like that? Can I trigger emergencies based on earlier decisions?

Secondly, I had took one of Australia's cities way later in the game in the atomic era. It kept rebelling and since I was the Mapuche I took it back and occupied it a few times before eventually just razing it. However, I kept getting denouncements from Australia for occupying a city that no longer existed. Is that a glitch or just a weird oversight?
