    I *heard* something... I think there's nothing certain yet, but there's plenty people here who could answer this with a little more accuracy... That's just what I heard, just in case.

      I hopes there ones, especially if it included the ability to edit the diplomatic situation in a scenarion and a scripting language

        There is today at 4 PM EST (9 PM GMT) a chat on CFC ( www.civfanatics.com ) with Firaxis employees. You could ask there (even if you won't, somebody probably will) but I doubt we will hear anything else but "No comment" or "It is possible" answers.

          Its a good oportunity to announce this sort of thing

            When was PtW announced? Knowing this could allow us an approximate guessing wheter Firaxis will or not announce something and if a new XP could hit the shelves before Xmas.

              Nah, weren't they working on a new patch for PTW? And suddenly no one talks about this patch anymore. I'd say that they're probably working on their next project, whatever it is (X-COM?).
              I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

                    Firaxis continues to refuse talking about their projects, so we don't know if they are working on a new expansion pack or not.
                    However, in the chat, Firaxian Barry told us there were no new unit packs (à la WW2 and Medieval Japan) in the works. Besides, Mike Breitkreuz (the main programmer of PtW, and the big guy of the Editor since the beginning) doesn't work on Civ3 anymore.
                    OTOH, Barry told us it was unlikely any design change comes with a patch. The way he said it gives some hope there will be an expansion one day.

                      I heard that Firaxis was working on something involving Dinosaurs.

                          Oh, they've tried that one already? Never mind. My sources are a bit dated, I see.

                            They've had a project with dinosaurs before civ3 but abandoned it eventually (to our benefit, I'd say, because civ3 would have been delayed at least a year if the Dino game had been realeased).
