    About forts

    With the espionage system, we don't need the outposts. I second (third, fourth...) the ZoC request for forts. I really miss that. Also I thought the age specific graphics were better with Civ 3 for forts. I think all they do now is change color every era...

    For the love of god the spies, THE SPIES!

    I was playing a marathon game on Noble/agressive ( I'm a bit rusty) and I was getting molested by spies and I had a decent espy rate going on with improvements. I don't know what made me think of it but I opened up the WB and was shocked at the number of spies the AI was producing and had...

    RedSheriff

    I didn't argee to any such crap when I first started coming here. And I have no idea what you are talking about. This site is not an official Infogames site. THere are no warning that they would implant spyware, tracking, snooping software of any such devious means when I first came to this...

    RedSheriff

    It just angers the heck out of me that people think they can place whatever the hell they want on my computer without my consent. There are other statistical "counters" out there that require no placement of cookies or tracking information. I admin 7 sites that recieve decent traffic and I...

    RedSheriff

    I really like this site, I've been coming here far longer than I have been posting. I need to voice a little displeasure on the redsharriff tracking methods employed on the main page. I understand there are costs for hosting a site like this. I'd rather see a donation or something for the...

    Does war produce happyness?

    I've definatly noticed it. Recently I have been playing the type of game, in which after I reach a nice chunk of territory, I just basically defend, and build up my infrastructure: luxuries, trade, science.... I usually just plant defensive troops along my borders, with an artillary...

    Naval warfare

    Heh lol, its not the battleships I fear, its the darn transports. Those transports take out just about any naval vessel you toss at them. Nuclear subs, crusiers, destroyers.... don't matter, the transport always wins.

    Regarding Hidden Nationality

    If you leave it unchecked, your unit will still be able to attack. And yes, if you DO check it, your unit will be able to capture (a city) during war. If you have it checked, your unit cannot attack a city (unless it is a bombarding unit) during peacetime. If its a land unit, it can still...

    Precision Strike Failure?...

    Seriously try the spy for buildings. As far as improvments, I have the exact same problem. My bombers have no problems singling out an embedded factory or temple, but can't hit an open field. You would think it to be quite the oppisite wouldn't ya?

    Bug: move planes without Carriers

    This is actually old news. I've been doing this since vanilla C3. You can run AS mission from that rebased posistion. I used to use it for my areas where I would keep fortified troops in the choke points, before flak and moble sams came into the picture.

    Argh Matey. Privateers.

    If the AI attacks that stack of units, they will declare war on you. I've done that before. I kinda keep it going. I have my Priveteers upgradable to smaller patrol boats as the ages change. I think of them as drug runners or black market merchants. It is alot of fun with all the...

    How should the UN be changed in Civ 4?

    I think the UN has some possibilities, but not as a game ender, I'd like to see it continue on. Some of the things I like to see, is maybe have it kick out a mech infantry unit every so many turns. Have these specailly designed units labled as multi-national or something. They can be used...

    Problem with cut and paste

    What I do using photoshop 7, is I do a select/color range, and select the purple. Then I select the background palate, make the color ff00ff, then ctrol+backspace. It will replace the background. If you look at the info and mouse over the purple, I usually see descripencies, like 215,25,215...

    feature request: streamline airlift

    I hate searching for an open airport. What I did is just pulled in some cargo planes. I load up some units into a few planes then rebase. There are quite a few decent cargo units available in the Customizatoion forum.
