    Quick Answers / 'Newbie' Questions

    This isn't really a gameplay question but me and my dad have just gotten back into civ 4 over LAN. The main problem we have is that if one of us is taking a longer time to finish a turn that the other, we (mainly me) get impatient and switch to another window, like an internet browser. What...

    Favorite Web Browsers

    I used to use firefox (used to being 3 or 4 days ago) but just switched over to Chrome. It is much faster, and now that I have figured out how to block ads on it, everything is cool. I still use firefox for browsing that requires more power though.

    Wonders in Civ 5: Ancient

    I like the idea of Petra, Sphinx, Parthenon, Stonehenge, Terracotta Army, and the Great Wall, and the Pyramids because they are still standing (the Hagia Sophia is a bit late for ancient wonders). I also voted to bring in the Circus Maximus (that would be cool) and Sun Tzu's AOW and also voted...

    Rather Violent Idea I had

    I had an idea, after reading a book about the crusades and reading about all of the massacres after they took cities and whatnot. I think they should bring back nationality (like in civ 3) and expand on it. So when you capture a city, you can select to massacre all enemy nationality people. This...

    Idea- Leader Specific Flags

    Not sure if anyone has done this before, but would it be possible to have leader specific flags? That way, if you have ancient leaders, they would have more of the banner feel of the vanilla flags, but if you have a modern leader, like FDR or Churchill, you could have a modern flag.

    Help with vista?

    I just installed civ 3 on my vista laptop and it works fine. Then, I installed the patch, and now it doesn't work. (it says it can't read the CD, but the CD is in). So I tried to uninstall, but that didn't work, and neither does reinstall. So, I did something that wasn't very smart. I delete the...

    I had an idea for a mod, wonders require resources

    but it may also balance it out more, so you aren't focused solely on peace and culture, but focused on war to get peace and culture. Then you wont be going out conquering for no reason other to get rid of your next door neighbors.

    Bug Reports Center

    Unique Powers mod in progress...need ideas

    for germany you could have the power of blitzkrieg, and all units start with blitz. america- the power of minutemen- gunpowder units start with woodsman and city garrison (not sure about this one). maybe, so that there is still diversity between leaders, you could have it like the new...

    Unique Powers mod in progress...need ideas

    you could have India with the ability to have more than 1 state religion. We just finished Sumer in history, and they could have +1 food for flood plains (since floods were such a big part, similar to the egyptians and the nile) speaking of the egyptians, maybe +50% wonder production, not...
