CTP2: A good game vs. civ3?

[Tamerlin]

Hagbart,

Have you been convinced by this thread to buy CtP2 ?

If the answer is yes, have you found the game and started to play ?

I'am interested in your feedback and I guess I'am not the only one.

I like both games.

CTP2 has its Combat System, Future Technologies, its Public works and lots of Special Units.

Civ 3 on the other hand has real strategic Ressources (such as Oil, Iron or Coal) which are important enough to fught wars over (no Iron, no Swordmen, Knights etc; no coal, no Ironclads and no Railroads; no Oil, no modern Units).
Civ 3 has also Cultural borders which i really like (the borders don´t expand with city-size, but with Culture-Points. build Librarys and Temples and watch your Borders grow).

I´d like to see a CTP3 with strategic Ressources and Luxuries and maybe cultural Borders.
I´d love it

Yes, I agree--this is a cool part of Civ III. I remember years ago the game "Destiny" had this feature, it was one of the most attractive features of that game.

If they every do make CTP 3 (hey, I can dream, can't I?), I think that would be one of the key improvements.

Proteus_MST, bartdanr, have a look through the 'AI/mods/creation' ctp2 forum - those things you want to see are being worked on. That's the great thing about this game -it can evolve!

Sounds great.

Good Reason, to play CTP2 again
