    Vel:


    Try going to Walmart. I saw CtP2 there for $9.99 this past weekend. Good luck!

      I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

        Vel,
        What I hear from other people, you should be able to get it from EB, and fairly cheap too (that's what I heard anyway; since I live on the other side of the big water I don't even know what an EB store looks like ). Good hunting

        Haupt. Dietrich,
        First of all, well said. Good to know I'm not the only hippie here

          This is a part of the reason that I haven't finished my SP tornament #2 game. I picked up a cheap copy of Caesar III, and have been having a splendid old time.

          the tourney game will be finished soon... I've been trying something completely different than I've played in the past. One might say that I've been quite bloodthirsty... almost makes me feel Evil

              He!He! Very noble of you Oerdin. I too apologise to sir ralph cause it makes me feel all warm inside
              Like the new avatar Oerdin, just as well you didn't say his mother was a hamster and his father smelt of elderberries!
              But lets get a life here for a momment(he said spending hours on apolyton while at work!). Games are er.....games - what we do for fun. Mr B likes that one, Miss C that other one - so great! As Vel says there should be room in the world for all(although i won't be getting Civ3 in a hurry cause i'm irrational or something/cheap).
              So lets bury this nearly bloody hatchet now. I know what i like as i'm sure each person knows what they like. That's the way of the world. Happy 'civving' to all!

                  Like the man said at the poker table: "Read 'em and weep!"

                  By the way, Hex, I haven't thanked you lately for the marvelous work you do and have done with Cradle. I enjoy the hell out of it, and I hope Vel gets to try it soon. If he can't find CTP2, I'll sell him my second copy (still shrink-wrapped) and then replace it.

                    It appears that Sir Ralph and I may both be correct in our observations concerning the number of units the AI recieves after the AI culturally captures a city. For those who are interested in more info please follow the link. http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...77#post1154160

                      Velociryx,

                      Have you found CtP2 and played a game (hopefully modded) ?

                        Hey guy! Got it, but haven't played a game yet....a little leery of it...LOL...not because I'm thinking I won't like it, but because of where the Candle'Bre project is at the moment...I'm scared I'll get so absorbed I'll forget about the work...LOL

                        But, I did scare myself up a copy...it and WC3 are both now waiting in the wings....

                          It's great to hear you have finally found CtP2.

                          After a bitter "Civ3/AIcheats" war, I guess many of us are eagerly waiting for your after action report.

                            Personally I prefer CTP2 MedMod, altough I may be biased because MedMod is the only mod I've really played . CTP2 really is a different type of game to the Civ series, it plays different and feels different.

                            One of the things I like most about CTP2 is that games go so much quicker, there is little in the way of menial micromanagment (especially if you master the national manager, hint: master the national manager) so CTP2 can be really quite enjoyable to play.

                            My main gripe? ModSwapper doesn't work in Win2K . (or has that since changed?)

                              My operating system is Windows 2000 Professional and I have no problems using the Modswapper program...maybe you should try downloading it again.

                                Speak for yourself, Sir! I can still take forever to play CTP2 with excruciating micromanagement, just like Civ2! However, I guess that's part of what makes the game enjoyable to me. [Part of the problem is that I could micromanage Civ2 quickly because I understood the formulas to the last beaker, shield, and wheatsheaf. I'm less sure of what I'm doing in CTP2 so the decisions take longer to make.]
