    AC Worth Getting?


    Hey all, I'm a big Civ2 player, and i've played CTP and CTP2 but never really got into them, do you all recommend getting AC, and if so can someone point me to where i can get a copy?

    If you liked Civ II, you'll probably love SMAC. I didn't think anything would ever replace CIV II as my favourite game, but SMAC quickly took that title. It's got the same addictive factor of "just one more turn". I wasn't much a fan of CTP either, to me it was just inferior Civ II. But I loved SMAC and SMAC-X as well. I know in Canada you can still pick up the original for about $20 (about $15 American) at most Computer stores. There is also the Planetary Pack, which includes both SMAC and SMAC-X, I'm not sure about the price though. I think SMAC-X is definetly worth it as well by the way, most importantly because the new factions add more variety. Meaning you can play again and again and again....

        What a peculiar question to ask in this forum!

            Not quite. Some of us never played the CTPs

                  YES! Many people actually consider civ2 better than SMAC. It really is a matter of preference (realism or sci fi), but now the price is about $10 - you can't go wrong. You'd be missing out on a great piece of gaming history.

                      bit of an "after-thought"; only if you don't have a life or, like, any big responsibilities.
