    Gotta get them bronze deposits!!

    "This means that an area you ignored or gave to the Phoenicians (in return for some wicked-cool bronze deposits) may turn out to someday be rich in oil or uranium. Surprise!"

    LOL!! I hope they don't include plastic deposits in late game!!

    Maybe Civ3 includes dwarves, who mine all the metals and secretly replace them with alloys...

      bah.

      gave to the Phoenicians
      giving land?

      dammit, what kind of ruler are you.

      ALL THE LAND IS MINE.

      the other civs are my tenants.

        3 to 1 odds it's Game-Revolution's mistake and not Firaxis'. Also: why does the preview mention "nanotech-wielding"? Such things were in SMAC, but not Civ II, as far as I can recall.

          Ever heard of understatements? He meant of course "traded", or "exchanged".

            Ah, so they've taken a page from ToT? Civ3 will have layered underground maps as well!

              What kind of squired up thread and replies are these?
              However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true? On the other hand, is it really so difficult simply to accept everything that one has been brought up on and that has gradually struck deep roots – what is considered truth in the circle of moreover, really comforts and elevates man? Is that more difficult than to strike new paths, fighting the habitual, experiencing the insecurity of independence and the frequent wavering of one’s feelings and even one’s conscience, proceeding often without any consolation, but ever with the eternal goal of the true, the beautiful, and the good? - F.N.

                Maybe Civ III should let you build cities in the sky.

                  i quite like this idea, it would be fun to have traded land to some poor civ only to find out it it is richest in later years, bit like the mid east now, no body wanted to settle those areas so left the major powers left them to the nomads, now look at how welathy they have become, rich enough to buy weopons to protect themselves from losing what they have...

                    Rasputin, the point is that Bronze is an alloy of Copper and Tin, and thus doesn't exist in natural deposits

                      Acctually,its pretty astounishing if you ask around how many people DON'T know that Bronze is a alloy...I ask them where Bronze is found and they ask "where?". Pitifull really...If Sid meier makes an oversight like this,my respect points will drop quite a bit for him.So he'll move from "As close as mortal man will ever get to God" to "Up there with Buddha and Ghandi"...*L*

                            I had a history teacher who thought you could mine steel.

                              I thought there was a titanium alloy?

                              And are you saying titanium is a natural resource? how come its only been found recently?
