One thng I don't like about hotseat games in Civ3 is that the last human player can see when they are attacked (what was lost and the like) but the others can't. I was playing a game with my brother (he was player 2 I was player 1) and was at war with one of the computers. I kept an eye out on my cities at the frontlines and fortified when needed. I, however did not notice that they took a boat to one of my islands and took the city there. I wish there was some wat that each person could see what the AI does to their cities or make it so that noone has that advantage. Just my opinion, let me know what you think.

I think anyone who has played hotseat in Civ3 would agree with you. I sincerely hope that 100% of multiplayer attention is not given just to internet/network play but significant thought is given to hotseat as well.
