Ever Fall Victim to a Civil War?

[Gatekeeper]

Yeah, but, rah, I'm just too damn nice. I'd suck at MP, that's for sure. "What?! Airbases on top of Mt. Everest?! No way!"

Be careful - it's what the banning rod was called, prior to the invention of the lathe and the internet.

It's a stick. It whoops ass. 'Nuff said really.

Woopass stick has not yet reached my end of the pond. What is it? (I think I have a vague idea )

It doesn't matter how much the AI cheats. Just take the woopass stick to them for a bit. End of problem.

Heh. I'll deliberately put an AI unit right next to the undefended capital. Although that's going to have to wait — my most recent game at the Emperor level has left me in the dust.

The Carthaginians basically took over all of Eurasia in short time and are ignoring me (the Aztecs) in Central and North America. It's funny seeing the AI get two techs per turn and completing wonders every three turns or so. The AI cheats at that level are so obvious it was aggravating. Eventually I just accepted it, though.

The strange thing is, the AI never launched a starship prior to the end of the game (2020), even though it had all the knowledge needed by the 1960s. I suppose it was waiting for me to catch up or something. How humanitarian, eh?

Make sure the AI beats the Barbs to it.

Well, I'm going to give it another shot. This time I'm playing the Celts on a standard Earth map (large). Once my "supreme-ness" is secure, I'll let some has-been power waltz into Cardiff.

Yeah, but I was kind of hoping to have a choice of three cities. Bokhara was on the far side of my empire and secure, but when it comes to allaying corruption, it's best to have a "centered" capital when possible.

At least civil wars are possible in Civ II ... it's my understanding that they can't happen in Civ III.

can't we just call Sid and ask if this is possible?

[Cyrion]

And so it happens I agree with the good Dr...
