INFO FROM LT JOHN
(4 September 2000, 14:51 | CtP2) Just like those back in 1999(yeah, back then! :)) Lt John solved some "mysteries" from recent screenshots on SGO
The V next to a unit stands for Veteran.
The A next to a unit indicates that it is an army.
There are a lot of new trade goods- you guys have figured out many of them: cotton, tea, lumber, glass, (medicinal) herbs.
Stacks can have up to 12 units now.
Little buildings outside of a city are tile improvements- trading posts- that increase the city's trade income.
Remember that these screens come from the alpha build, so you are seeing some placeholder stuff.
Lt John also informs us that the official CTP2 site should go public in the next couple weeks

I personally think that the lack of fresh info on Civ3 is geting to our nerve system.... :) - MarkG
