    1st you need latest patch 1.3

    You may find 'Setting up IP games' thread here. People post there when want to play but BEWARE!!! They'll skin you alive so if you want to get some multiplayer practice look for some 'diplomatic' game also here or go to www.zone.com.

    2nd...get ICQ. If you already have one,then do not download it for free from www.mirabilis.com

    Thread named 'ICQ players list' will provide you with numerous ICQ numbers from other civers.

    Have fun.

      Yep. If you're playing on a PC. If you're playing on a Mac, you'll need patch 1.1, which is the equivalent.

        You've had it for two years and you've never played MP before?
        Are you insane?


        I drove 1.5 hours to the only shop I could find that had it in my country the day they got it so that I could play it immediately.

          Makeo, I had the game a while, but couldn't find the site where anyone would explain to me how it worked. When I found Apolyton, it *was* explained.

          So, given your initial response, I request that *you* help our new Civ-player and explain to him/her how it works...

                  Very carefully.

                  Remember, Great Wall doesn't mean a human player will make peace.

                  Human beings don't think like A.I.'s, for the most part.

                  Horses, path to Monarchy, then Bronze; one tech path to consider.
