Personally, I feel that this is the most important issue in Civ3. Ease of scenario creation. Now, not everyone plays scenarios, heck, there might be more civers out there who dont. The thing is though, Civ2 is still really popular because of scenarios. Civ3 will last for years as well if you make it easy to make great scenarios. Here is my list of ideas that would be great to have for tools:
1: Bring back the scenario editor, but get the bugs outta it. I dont like ToT cuz it does not have this.
2: Give us more unit spaces! I can't even begin to tell you what I would do with 100 slots. 200 would be great as well. Would it really be impossible to do this? If its possible the more unit slots the better. You dont have to use them in the regular game, but man they would be great to have for scenarios.
3: Unlimited events space. This would be a joy so that there would be no more multievents scenarios.
4: DONT overdo the graphics. TOT does not really benefit from them IMO, unit animations are not necessary, Captain Nemo and others can draw better units then you guys can anyway (no offense). I'd say keep pretty much the same graphics as Civ2. They are fine. The only thing the game needs is better playability options, it does not need a whole reworking of art.
Just my opinion.
