  • The Russians no longer build Kiev, Tbilisi, Riga, etc.

    So no more Tbilisi and Riga, eh?

    Well, it turns out that 'Civ' has been pretty much a politically incorrect game throughout the versions! It is only in 'Conquests' that this mistake is corrected. I hope Firaxis didn't get sued for this.

    As for Kiev and Minsk, they should still be in there. They are parts of a greater Russian Civilization.

    P.S. Just bought C3C recently. This is one thing that amused me most.

    You can always add them in the editor. Sounds like they removed cities no longer part of Greater Russia.

          I hadn't noticed it, but it does faintly annoy me. All of those were part of Russia for generations.

          But while at it, why not remove Zimbabwe from the Zulu list? It was never part of Zululand ...

            Isn't present day Zululand inside the borders of the ancient kingdom of Zimbabwe?

                Oh. I thought the Zulus migrated into the region after the ancient kingdom of Zimbabwe fell.

                  Funny - I searched Google for 'Zulus'and 'Zimbabwe', and the first two results I got were CivFanatics!

                  Sounds like there are sort-of links between Zimbabwe and the Zulus, just not the classic movie Zulus who fought British guns with Spears and whatnot Limited Zimbabwe info.

                    No, there's nothing to suggest that Zimbabwe's sphere of control stretched that far south.
