What the heck does "MGE" stand for????

I see it all over the place (usually as a "required to play" item on scenarios), but I can't find anything that it could stand for.

I mean ToT stands for "Test of Time" (I'm pretty sure, at least) and FW would stand for Fantasy Worlds. But the only thing I find close to MGE would be the Gold Multi-player Edition (but the letters are turned around). And if this is true, then it appears I'll be left out of quite a few scenarios as I don't own the multi-player game and had no need to purchase it as I play against the AI only (yea, I have no friends to play with - how sad!).

So, could someone please straighten me out here? Thanx!

Multiplayer Gold Edition.Thats what the North American version of civ2 multiplayer is called.

btw-with Cedric Green's FW update,you can make your 2.42 into FW and enjoy most of the good scenarios.

or with MGE update you can get the whole smear.

You need a working copy of Civ2 2.42 or those updates do nothing.I'm not supposed to provide a link here but if you are a Civilization Fanatic you can find them pretty easily.

We don't have MGE, we have Civilization II Ultimate Classic Collection, in the land downunder, where beer does flow and men chunder.

[Straybow]

"…men chunder" ??

Did you say that with a mouthful of vegemite sandwich?

[Hydey]

where women glow and men plunder.

[War4ever]

are the men 6foot four and full of muscles

Only the ones buying bread in Brussels.

Hydey, familiarity with the lyrics of that song not only dates you (us both), but is a strong indication that you are in need of therapy...
