The thing that kills this game for me...

Man, IF ONLY. Culture Flipping is such a braindead crock.

As for AI alliances, it is the Human against the World - and that is NOT realistic, it is just a fantasy of Soren Johnson.

the ai is a cheap whore, you have to contact the ai before another ai does, offer them your world map or something, it should be enough to make him attack his much larger neighbor who will proceed to run him over.

In otherwords, the Civ 3 AI has no sense of the strategic, is just a bean-counter, and does not even consider the human element of trust built up over centuries.

As such it sucks, and is worse than the Civ 2 AI.

Not the way I play... my ruler, the Scorpion King, actually deserves to be at war with the world.
