Those of you familiar with smac know that a factions borders were inviolate by another faction without starting a war. In CivIII a faction could start another city anywhere, even within a area that in smac would be considered a violation of another's factions borders. Does anyone know how borders will be treated in CivIV? I stopped playing CivIII because of this issue.

From what I hear so far borders will be better respected."And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man." -- JFK Inaugural, 1961

I would certainly like to see entry into someone's territory be tantamount to a declaration of war.
In the early days of an MP game it annoyed me that you had to attack any lone warrior encroacher, and that they benefited from war happiness because they were attacked..One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

Yeah, the number of times the AI just sends it's hordes of settlers over your borders regardless of treaty status...Speaking of Erith:

That's an excelent improvement.
When an AI twenty+tiles away has three settler unit pairs within my boundaries in Civ III, I find the temperation to declare war just to get six free slaves ilrestistable.

AI: I sure wish Jon would hurry up and complete his turn, he's been at it for over 1,200,000 milliseconds now.

This is going to have a serious effect on REX. Now, instead of filling out territory as fast as possible, it might be better in C4 to push towards foreign nations as fast as possible. In other words, you can leave an undeveloped hinterland, at least until the discovering of seafaring.EsquireComment
