how do I get ICBM

[zer0cool]

I just finished my first game of civilization on Chieftan level and decided to play on and see what happens. I found out that ICBM is pretty cool and thus researched it, of course, I have also done rocketry and fission the tech before ICBM. However, I can not find the button to buid ICBM or the tactical Nuke... I really want to be able to build those two things and blow the crap out of all the other nation....


could anyone tell me how those two things can be built??

I haven't got civ3 YET...But I'm pretty sure the answer is:

Building manhattans project (a small wonder I think) will allow you the option to build and then use ICBMs etc.

PLUS a source of uranium wouldn't hurt either.

Do I really need manhattans project ?? I thought i didnt need it cause it ll alow everyone on the map ALL to have the ability to create nukes. Is there anyway so that I am only one who can build them.


Also, I already have sources of both Aluminum and Uranium.

No, there is not. You (or someone) MUST build Manhattan Project before any nukes can be built.

yeah, it would be rather useless a wonder if you could build nukes even without it...

anyway, I disliked the fact that in the previous civs the wodners Manhattan Project and Apollo Programm allowed ALL civs to IMMEDIATELY build the nukes/spaceship improvements... it should be like in CTP, where the one who builds the relevant wonder gets an advantage of 10 turns befor ethe other civs can join in
