traditionally its never good to play on chieftain because you get such obscene bonuses compared to the computer that you learn bad gameplay habits. i know on civ3 (i still play it after nearly 10 years) on chieftain level, the computer takes twice as long to produce things. advice on how to do better? keep playing. i started playing civ when it came out on snes in the mid 90s. i still learn new strategies to this day. i am sure it can be frustrating, but just try different things. sometimes being warlike has advantages and sometimes it doesnt. i am a builder by nature and try to get as large an empire going as i can early on. if i have over aggressive neighbors, it can be super tough.
