Localised versions

From what I've heard will there not be any Swedish version of the game. At least nothing that has been decided.

But AFAIK, it's mostly EA that has bundled
Swedish translations with games published by
them (like The Sims and Theme Hospital).
At least EA Sports' NHL games are the only
games that are translated into Finnish
(expect M$'s Windows games ).

But I wouldn't buy a Finnish version of Civ III,
because those translations would probably
be too humorous.

You see, you gave a good reason yourself.

First the gold disc is in the US making the US versions. Then the gold disc is shipped to Europe to make the other versions.

(Or they are working on a second gold disc with all bugs found by the advance copy holders removed)

Not really, unless you start doing it too often.

Gramphos, I didn't know that Infogrames has
such bad guidelines for distribution.
