Refresher course

[IRON_BRIGADE]

I've been away for quite awhile, so I noticed that PTW
has finaly come out.
I have a few questions that most likely have been asked before but I never seen them.

first, were is the majority of everyone going to find online games? gamespy, the zone what?

next question how did the designers of civ3 overcome the tremendous length of a typical game cramed into a simple online short game or long but not 12 hours.
is it still turn based?

[Gangerolf]

there will be a turnless mode in ptw

At the risk of exposing my Newb status I think I am confused after reading many threads.

Is PTW out yet?
Is PTW an online game or just an expansion for civ 3?

Iron... read one of the previews and your questions will be answered.

thanks good deal

Ptw will be out in October.
PTW is an expansion to civ3, it requires civ3, and adds multiplayer to the game.

Of course, you can still play the 18 hour game online
