    Looking for advice on low production map (Warlords)

    I'm playing a China on a large map with Epic speed on Warlords. Everything is random. I built the Great Lighthouse in one of my 2 good production cities. I have about 9 cities right now. I just took 2 from Frederick including one that was a holy city. Frederick's lands are much better...

    Sick, Sick, Sick . . .

    keep population low --> whip or focus on production/commerce tiles instead of food. Get resources with health bonus: cow, pig, seafood, etc.

    What does/doesn't get wrecked when a city is conquered?

    If you take a city as part of the peace treaty, I think that none of the buildings are destroyed. Can anyone verify this?

    What does/doesn't get wrecked when a city is conquered?

    Pretty sure world wonders and shrines live on everytime. National wonders are likely destroyed, but I know I have captured an academy before so great people created buildings probably have a chance of being destroyed along with the other buildings in city. Settled great people I don't know about.

    Improvements and wonders in AI cities

    Is there a screen that lists the locations of all the world wonders? I know the wonders are listed for the top 5 cities, but what about the others? Is there a way to know what improvements an AI has in its cities besides trying to look at all the little graphics on the main map? I am...

    Question about emailing games

    How do I clear the game cache? My brother reinstalled the game with the 1.74 update (which is what I am using), but it still doesn't work. I don't know if this matters, but my computer uses a ".Civ4SavedGame" file extention for the saved files, but his computer uses a ".SavedGame" file...

    Question about emailing games

    My brother and I like to play as one civ and email the game back and forth after about 10 turns. We did this all the time with civ3, but something is not working right for cIV. When I send him a saved file, he puts it in the My Games/Civ 4/Saves/Single folder, but the game will not recognize...

    Biggests Blunders!

    Like many other players, my first game on Chieftan I built the Palace in every city. I only had about 6 cities though and I am sure I built it in the same city twice. I remember thinking that this city already had one, but I must be mistaken, so I built it again. Also, the last square...

    Let's talk about WEALTH...

    1) I think the ratio starts at 1 gold for 4 shields and then becomes 1 gold for 2 shields after econ. If a city only makes one shield, it still gets one gold though. 2) Only blue shields count. 3) Straight to the treasury. 4) Don't know 5) Don't think so. 6) Only useful...

    Why Are you still playing Civ III?

    Though I have been playing civ3 for about 2 years, I have recently beaten conquests on deity. Now I am trying to play through all of the conquests. There is still much to do. When I finally get bored with civ3, then I'll start playing cIV.

    Quick Answers / 'Newbie' Questions

    Quick question: In Conquests under the HOF, does it only list one entry for each Conquest no matter how many times you beat it? How is it decided which victory shows up, ie highest score, first victory, hardest level?
