You the man, Splangy. Nice foreign advisor screen, I like that.Comment

a short summary
Ok so it has a totally new look. Beyond that, what new information does civ3.com bring?
- Pillaging exists and is considered an act of war
- The city view changes according to the cultural group of the civ and the time era
- A world map will be included, and a "rules.txt" editor is confirmed once again
- Units are supported by your entire civilization(CtP1/2 way), not by your cities(Civ1/2 way)
- The 16th civ are the Aztecs
- The special abilities of each civ are devided in 6 categories: Militaristic, Commercial , Expansionistic, Scientific, Religious, and Industrious
- Each civ has one special unit, but they may come at different times: Zulus have the Impi(early one), the Americans have the F-15(late)
- Golden ages: During a "golden age", all worked tiles in your empire contribute one additional trade and shield per turn. Golden ages only occur once, last twenty game turns, and are triggered when any one of your civ-specific units wins its first combat against another civ
- Special abilities, special units and the golden age feature are optional
Beyond all this insignificant stuff, there are screenshots, videos, screensavers, etc, as well as the "Civ of the Week" feature where one of the civilizations is presented. The babylonians is the first.Co-Founder, Apolyton Civilization Site

I don't know if this is a knwon fact, but now there is a terraforming dedicated unit "Worker". Building it depletes 1 pop. But building a settler to found a city requiers 2 pop, hindering the ICS strategy.Cake and grief counseling will be available at the conclusion of the test. Thank you for helping us help you help us all!Comment

That's actually somewhat of a joke. We were going to do the classic CivII "tank losing to phalanx" paradox but didn't wanna give away all the cool modern military units.Originally posted by UberKruX

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn you Splangy I wanted to be the first one to find out civ3.com is open. I actually checked the page at 3:45pm (my time) which is about 15 minutes before you did and it wasn't open.
The worker and settler thing isn't any new info. Kass.
That's not a funny joke Dan. Thanks for finally getting up and the site looks very good.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.Comment

if thats the order (in the civ of the week area) we've got like 15 weeks ahead of us.
that takes us into november."I've lived too long with pain. I won't know who I am without it. We have to leave this place, I am almost happy here."

It's candy. Surely there are more important things the NAACP could be boycotting. If the candy were shaped like a burning cross or a black man made of regular chocolate being dragged behind a truck made of white chocolate I could understand the outrage and would share it. - DrosedarsComment

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe this means that the game will be out sometime around 16 weeks. That's my guess at this point. I wonder if this actually does have any corallation with the release date.???if thats the order (in the civ of the week area) we've got like 15 weeks ahead of us.However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true?
