I voted for Civ IV: BtS. With the Legends of Revolutions mod, it is the perfect Civ game. Civ II and Civ III were also both amazing, and I still load them up from time to time. Civ V ruined the series with 1UPT, laughable diplomacy, and harsh penalties for attempting to rule more than three cities.

From the announcement, it looks like 1UPT is somewhat dead! While that quote does eliminate unlimited units per tile, it looks like we might be allowed one "main" unit in a tile, plus some sort of "support" units. What would "support" units look like? I'm wondering if they'll include ranged...

I would be impressed if a five year old went to the Internet, typed in civfanatics.com, registered, and voted in this poll...

I support a draw in the question put forward three days ago and due tomorrow!

It peaked my interest when I read its announcement. However, as screenshots and videos became available, BE looked to me more and more like a Civ V mod, and my interest was eliminated. Then I tried the demo. Ugh... 70 minutes later and I uninstalled it. I put 25 hours in the Civ V: G&K demo...

Me neither. 5-way works for me.

I'd be in favor for the three-way-draw option. Of course, I don't do any of the work with this ISDG, so if this doesn't taste good to those who do, please say so.

I check CFC once or twice a week. Otherwise, playing other games...

Try epic or marathon speed?

I would rather take their capital and leave them a dinky city, if I'm not eliminating them. It is a very, very hard blow to someone to take their capital.

I don't war very often, and when I do it's early in the game. I usually build a couple of nukes then ban them in the UN. I don't want any foreign civs nuking me in my quest for a diplomatic or cultural victory!

Ha, you and me both. I've never seen this option either, in 435 hours played. Something I'll have to look forward to...

I treat those two like any other: if I'm in the mood to play them, then I will. If not, I'll scroll right on by.

I usually play until the medieval or renaissance era, then save and move onto a different game. When I come back to Civ V, I tend to start a new game. I finish about one in six.

When you take one artifact from the AI, you'll still get the red "You took our archeological artifacts!" negative line when you hover over, even if you promise not to do so again.
