    Hey, I think "Fireaxis" is a better name than "Firaxis."

    Don't worry Paddy, your not as think as we drunk you are.

    And if that made any sense, then yes, you have had one too many beers, and a few hours too little sleep.

    thanks for that I think

    Fireaxis is a better name for them, I like to throw them on the fire some days

    ahh, Rommel talked me into have multiple sessions for when new patches come out...

    in this way I have PTW, C3C 1.15 and C3C 1.20

    a little maddening, but it gets the job done for now

    as to the game play, I am playing through a game now, and all seems to flow smoothly, well as smooth as these games go

    Due to the concerns here on the forums I have sent the game without the patch.

    Sent to Paddy, without the patch.

    Okay, now I'm confused.

    Where did you guys get version 1.15?

    I'm currently running v1.12 beta

    Is 1.15 small enough for one of you guys to email it to me? I looked at both Firaxis and the Civ3.com websites, Firaxis only has v1.20 and Civ3.com only goes up to v1.12 beta.

    Hope this doesn't cause any problems,
    Dan O.

    Alright, I have some serious issues with v1.15.

    First off, caps is backwards. I had to type in my password with capslock on, however, backspace does not work. I finnally got into the game, and found that numlock was backwards, and the hotkeys don't work. Finnaly, I tried to check what units were in a city and it brought up the build menu. That's about the time I had it and exited the game.

    Any advice on how I can fix these issues would be much appreciated,
    Thanks,
    Dan O.

    Okay, I rebooted and everything now runs fine.

    Sent to Paddy,
    Dan O.

    PS. anyone got any advice on how do deal with a barbarian camp that has 8 horsmen and a warrior in it? It's a long ways off from my base, but one horseman has already killed one of my settlers and is threatening a town.

    I can make swordsmen, but even then, I'll have to load them onto Galleys (I think that's what I have) and risk running into the barb galleys. The encampment is on a coastal square. I have one galley going that way with a warrior, but it won't be near enough. I have two elite warriors real close to the encampment, but I still don't think that 3 warriors can do the job. Maybe if I were to get some kind of ship that could bombard I could attack from sea. What's the earliest tech that will let me do that?

    I think from my nearest port city it will take about 10 turns to get to the encampent, possibly up to 15. This could be a long, drawn out war against the barbarians.

    a long drawn out war against barbarians! cool

    you can bombard with frigates, thats the earliest, and it needs magnetism.

    I would say: NO! At least not until Firaxis tells us if they are even going to fix the v1.20 patch or not.

    theres really nothing broken in it though. in the meantime other games get upgraded, and it makes a big mess

    if firaxis doesnt come up with something by monday, I say we upgrade this game to 1.20.

    turn sent btw

    Hey all! Good news!

    If you happen to be running low on webspace for your e-mail, there is a solution on the horizon. Ladies? and Gentlemen, I bring to you the webpage http://gmail.google.com/ that's right, Google is now aiming at email!

    According to what they say on the site, you will never have to throw away another email again! That's right, you are given 1gb, yes, 1,000mb of free storage!

    Not only that, but all the email can be seached just like the google search engine! Conversations are also grouped as such, so if you email Joe Blow, and Joe Blow emails you back, and you email him back, that is considered a conversation, and is grouped accordingly!

    This is gonna be sweet!

    i heard that gmail reads all your email, so it can properly display advertisements to you, based on the info it analyzes from your email.

    I vote for keeping it at v1.15 for the moment - to give Firaxis another week or so to work out all of the kinks in v1.22.
