New York: Harper & Brothers, 1926

by accident or not , who knows , only SID knows for sure , .... maybe he got the idea when he read this book or so , ....

Sid had little to do with Civ 3 and probably even less with the expansion

And he does not seem to have much inspiration lately anyway, what with the sequel to Pirates announced

Remains to be seen. I like the sound of some of the additions, and the included scenarios gives me hope that diplomacy editing will finally be added. However, until I get more specifics about the features, I'll reserve judgment. Frankly, the crowing about adding 8 new civs worries me, since that's how PtW got started. I don't care for more civs...we have enough. Adding more won't change the quality of the game one bit. I'd rather the time and resources they spent on those be used more productively.

Sid will end his life signing napkins for money at an internet cafe at this rate.

Hi The Templar,

Just one thing, though, is that you are confusing the game DESIGNERS (i.e. Firaxis) with the game WHOLESALERS (i.e. Infogrames&Atrai). Having exchanged e-mails etc. with the designers, I get the sense that they TRULY want the best possible game-EVER. Unfortunately, the game wholesalers put very unfair, market-driven deadlines on the designers-forcing them to often produce a second rate product (in the eyes of the designers-at least!!) Of course, from the other end is the joke that, if game designers waited until they thought a game was perfect, before they shipped it, then no games would EVER get shipped!!!

Yours,
