Yes, i know what your thinking. It is Dan. He has played the game, even talked about it. But he is keeping things away from us. Well i'll tell you your wrong! In fact i'm worried that it might be me.
Recently i was thinking about civ3 (as i do). I thought about all the new additions:
There is culture - a bit questionable a first, but i now respect it.
resources/trade - A well deserved change.
the Great Leaders - clever and probably worth it. Will add more to game strategy.
CSU/Golden Ages - very questionable, but i expect them to be well balanced. Probably a good game with or without them.
Workers/settlers - I'm not complaining, and i don't think anyone else is.
After these "large" additions/changes there are the smaller changes eg air combat, ZOC(unconfirmed but mentioned near the start),Map sizes, etc.
And then... I thought i knew everything. I was very disapointed. There would be nothing new for me to learn when i play my first game.
That evening i checked the forum again and to my surprise there was a lot of new (small but still new) information and i felt positive again.
And then i felt disapointed, worring that i now knew all there was about civ3, which is why from now on i shall not be knocking at Apolyton's door each and every day asking for some more factual porrige to release the growing hunger for information, for just another hour, from my stomach of knowledge.
Does anyone, anyone at all, share with me this ... this ... feeling?
Can there be any new stuff left that i don't know or am i in fact a civ3 guru. I hope not.
