  • I Found My Civ II poster

    On buying Civ II and looking at the enclosed advance chart, I recognized it immediately as something pretty cool to have as reference, maybe even as a keepsake.
    So, with the intent of putting into a poster frame, or having laminated somehow, I put it away; and promptly lost it.

    Years later, following numerous packings and unpackings, I found it this morning!
    Still looks brand new. Why wouldn't it?

    You won't care much I suppose, but I was happy.

      Oh man, Wiz. I am SO sorry. Maybe they will resurface.
      Apparently Civ posters are like socks.

            But , it's not the same as having the original.
            They have copies of the Mona Lisa on the internet, too.

              I have two copies of the poster... but I wouldn't call them a mona lisa

              If I ever get too drunk or spaced while playing, the civopedia (or whatever) that is part of the game can always answer my question, so the posters are really kinda of worthless.

              But heck... go ahead and frame it... hang it with honor in your home... and get strange looks when your friends come over
              Keep on Civin'

                    You know, you're a very bad man.



                    I got the poster with MGE.

                      I guess they're not included in the budget releases, shame...

                      Apart from the original They also came with FW, CiC and Test of Time. Although the one in ToT differed in a bit appearance and layout to include the extra scenarios.
                      Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.
