How to play Civilization 5?

Before answering your question, I want to pay tribute to Sidmel, the designer of Civilization Series. This is a holy man. After playing his game, I won't play other games. I played his Pirates of Sidmel, Civilization IV and Colonial Rule of Civilization IV, and finally got Civilization V after waiting for a long time. As an American, he has a profound understanding and reflection on western culture. If you know American culture or western colonial culture, you can better appreciate the charm of Sidmel's works in this historical and cultural background.

There is a speed when choosing game settings. I guess the reason why people are slow is that your speed choice is slow. You can choose fast speed. Generally speaking, under the rapid setting at the beginning of the game, making immigrants (you should say "immigrants" refers to the English version of settler) will be completed in about 7 rounds. But civilization is a game that needs patience and time to wait.

A turn is a period of time during which you can command your troops, and after your turn, other players are also operating their troops at the same time, and you come and go.

There are many ways to increase money. I think luxury goods are generally not used for financial growth (but you can trade luxury goods with other leaders, and if others don't need them, there is no way), but to improve the happiness index of residents. There are several main ways to increase fiscal revenue: 1) Population growth is the easiest way to increase grain output. By letting workers build farms on your land, or through some national policies such as tradition, we can increase food production, or build some buildings to increase food production (not in the grid but in the production interface of the city, such as lighthouses, etc. The symbol of blue fruit stands for food, and you can find buildings to increase food production in the column of production) 2) Establishing a business district in the grid is also an important way for workers to increase their income. After completing the pottery technology, you can develop the technology of the business district and build a business district. I don't remember the specific English name. The business district is a sign of a white stall, and gold coins represent money and taxes in the game. You can find the standard of booth in the operator interface. Of course, you can also increase taxes through national policies such as business, and you can also build markets, banks, stock exchanges and other related buildings in the urban production interface. 3) Conquering savage tribes, you can get a certain amount of money for destroying a castle, but it is not the main way. 4) In the diplomatic interface, leaders of other countries can be asked. If the quantity is too large for others to accept, it is not a very effective method, not recommended, nor is it the main way to increase the quantity. 5) Money can be increased by some technologies, such as money, and you can check the technical tree of the game. 6) In the war, if the enemy is at a disadvantage, he may ask you for compensation and peace in a certain round, which may also increase his income. 7) Some leaders who are stronger and richer than you may give you financial assistance in order to curb the development of one of your neighbors, but this does not happen often. 8) Building some wonders can also increase the speed of financial revenue (which can be seen in the wonders of urban production) 9) Sometimes you can check the consultants in the second box in the upper right corner of the game and listen to the advice of your financial consultant (the first consultant in the upper left corner). She will report to you the salary paid to each unit in each round, and sometimes she will advise you to disarm or reduce the number of workers. It is necessary to reduce redundant troops and workers.

Generally speaking, the negative growth or no growth of finance is mainly due to too much unit salary, which exceeds the tax that your population and business circle can provide. I suggest you build more business districts, increase the population, and then appropriately lay off staff and disarm.

Heroes. Maybe you're talking about great people. There are four kinds of great men, generals, artists, engineers and scientists. They can all start a golden age. In a certain golden age, your country's tax revenue, grain output, engineering strength and cultural strength will all increase. Generals can build castles, and the military units in castles can increase the defense by 100%, which is stronger than ordinary castles built by workers. It is suitable to be placed in the throat area where ten thousand people can't force it, and it is very effective to guard it by one person before the air force appears. You can also put generals near military units to improve their defense and attack capabilities. Artists can build a monument to strengthen their city's cultural strength, or they can expand their city's territory through cultural bombs, which are suitable for being placed near neighbors' borders and can rob others of their land. Engineers can speed up the production of their cities in a certain round, and the construction of soldiers, buildings and miracles will also be much faster. Scientists can let you get a technology or a policy for free, so you don't have to wait for a round.
