Me too, of course. And it is very possible, just look at Civ2, that was and still is the perfect example of a basic, easy to understand game that has the ability to create very clever and complex scenarios. That's why Civ2 is still being played, even after 5-6 years. Whether Civ3 will have that ability (and more) remains to be seen.

Yes, the only reason I ever play SP civ2 now is for scenarios.
