What kind of map did you have selected? You didn't accidentally select a tundra map, did you?
PS: That quote from the Chillies in your sig - it should say "This life is more than just a read-through"! -
from what I remember
Large, 5 civs and remember nothing about selecting tundra anywhere
We all hear songs differntly..

Ice Age is cool
No, really it is. More barbs and that primieval feeling that you're there "at the beginning." There usually is a narrow temperate zone in the middle though. I had three ivory sites in one of mine. Wonder if they were wooly mammoths

While we're on the subject of tundra, why am I sometimes able to farm it and sometimes not? It seems I can farm next to a river (and I think I've also seen commerce in such situations), but I can't chain farms to tundra or improve with biology.Comment

Every (land)tile (except ice) with access to a source of fresh water can be farmed. For the rest, simply pray that a forest will grow on non-fresh tundra tiles eventually to have some extra use out of it.Comment

Can't do crap with Tundra or Desert unless it's next to fresh water (or has a forest, in the case of tundra).Comment

I thought cities are supposed to pass through water for purposes of irrigation? I had a river/ tundra (fresh water) + farm/ city/ tundra all in a line, and I couldn't farm the tundra square on the other side, not even with biology.
Is that a bug?

this was my point earlier, it doesn't seem possible to "carry" water to tundra by eg chaining farms (or cities) or biology, but tundra directly next to a river is farmable. Seems odd.Originally posted by Lord Avalon

I'd assume it's an attempt to make the game realistic, because Water would Freeze in tundra, and would Evaporate in a desert.
I don't think they needed to do that, though - Desert or Tundrid cities tend to be crappy anyway.

There's a few months of summer - otherwise how could you farm tundra at all?Originally posted by Enigma_Nova

Crappy? Or sited near vital but inconveniently placed resources?I don't think they needed to do that, though - Desert or Tundrid cities tend to be crappy anyway.

What i dont get is...
a tundra next to a lake or river can be farmed, or cottaged/workshopped.
Tundra without freshwater canot have anything on it...
Well why not a cottage? ok no water to feed the populace? workshop? well? hmmm.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
