Hmm, the thing that's puzzling me is how you get strategy into a dinosaur game. If it's RTS then it would just be like playing the zerg in starcraft, and would hardly fit with Civ3 and SMAC. If it's TBS - who are your competitors? Other types of dinosaurs? (in which case you won't have much variety in creatures on your team) Other clans of dinosaurs? I guess that could work, but setting up strategic attacks doesn't seem to fit with dinosaurs, somehow - after all, as the Firaxis teasers pointed out, they did just have brains the size of walnuts.

Australian, it looks like Firaxis is simply exchanging different units with different dinosaurus. No more fighters plane, put a Pterodaptilus instead. No more tanks, now you have a T-rex. Some stuff, different graphics.
If that's really the main shift from Civ to Sid's Dino, it will be a huge disappointement.
Once again, I can't realize why we are almost fighting about a game we know almost nothing.
Firaxis is only exercising the old marketing trick of "Pavlov's bell". They ring, we drool
Merry Christmas

I will not be buying this game unless it is a LOT more original.
