Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
those who know me from the Civ 2 forum, know i can really get into micromanaging I've tried CtP II, but find the PW rather annoying. Civ I was really groundbreaking and almost voted for it as i think i may still have more hrs logged in Civ I than i do Civ II, but in the end chose Civ II (MGE by default), as there is so much more that can be done in Civ II than Civ I.

I haven't played Civ2 in ages, but the WW2 Europe scenario was great.
I have't looked, but are there any good WW2 scenarios for Civ3?
It is practically impossible to make a WW2 scenario--or any historical scenario, for that matter--in Civ3 as it stands, since you can't set diplomatic relations in the scenario editor
I voted civ III, but it seems that there are many more people who posted their praise for civ II MGE than civ III even though the vote is quote close. I wonder what this says. Anyway...
I prefer civ III for:
Luxuries
Much, Much improved AI
Bombardment
Better Trade
Gold supporting units and settlers/workers require no food
Civ 3. I must have played Civ 2 every day for 3 years, but as soon as I got Civ 3 I never touched Civ 2 again. I love the idea of culture, I love the borders, I love the fact that different civs are actually different, I love the UUs, I love the improved graphics, I love the fact that you can raze cities, capture workers and artillery, I love the fact that you can't conquer the world with a Howitzer army, I love bombardment, I love that your whole stack doesn't die with one loss, I love that computer civs can't sneak a settler two squares from your capital and found new city, I love the updated AI, I love the new trading system, I love the fact that there are no superpowerful caravans/spies/ Fundamentalist government.....
I loved Civ 2 in its time, but I think that Civ 3 PTW is far superior. I will personally never go back to Civ 2.

It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world, so far as we are now at liberty to do it." George Washington- September 19, 1796
Civ 2 (never had MGE, why wasn't normal civ 2 included in the poll?) was the best, due to the ability ot make great scenerios. Red front is a classic.
Civ 3 certainly has several imporvements, but honetly, i would have been happy if Civ 3 had just been AC reworked to fit an earth setting: too many of Ac's better ideas were ignored.
