          Good one, Anunikoba!

            UUs and GAs

            An UU really provides 2 advantages, increased basic stats and
            if it wins, a Golden Age. So, if I start out with some Impis and
            manage to beat up a warrior, I'll start my Golden age, get
            increased production, pump out a horde of Impis an either cut
            down or completely destroy a neighboring civ. An AI sniping my
            explorers, Getting a GA and then come barreling down on me
            is just as likely, IMHO.

              Well, I think steve is right, but only for those really 133t players who can thrash the computer around at Deity due to their infinate patience. I still barely hold my own at Emperor, in Civ2, mostly because I don't have the patience to manage a huge number of cities and units, nor tweak and tweak and tweak to maximize my production. So for me, the computer's UUs just might be something to worry about.

              Still, the UUs aren't that much more powerful than the regular ones. The big advantage is that you get a free GA when you use them for the first time. So what it'll really come down to is, how big an advantage is a GA?
              To those who understand,
              I extend my hand.
              To the doubtful I demand,
              Take me as I am.
