    what's the record for getting to Alpha Centauri?

    Get Col Asap to get the free tradepost in Thebes. Then expand from your 100g city and taken AI caps. Don't take settlers from Thebes. If doing this right a non dom win in 500BC ish should be possible. And thats whithout playing the same map over and over and saving the game.. atleast 4...

    Is there a generally accepted best civ(s)?

    Yea Morte your list looks good. But I do think Egypt got their place in this list to. Also it depends if playing MP or SP. I would defently say that Japan is better then German in SP. This because the AI never rush you.

    Is there a generally accepted best civ(s)?

    I read in another thread on civrevforum that what Cid Meyer wan'ted when he made this game was.. He wan'ted the player to feel that.. "No matter what civ I choose, my bonuses and advantages are so strong so there is no chanse of me to loose"... Whith that said I would say Zulu and Chinese...

    Addiction/Depression (or: The Chinese are Awesome)

    Yes you are a weirdo :D Seriosly though. The + 1 pop is strong bonus. But many other civs have bonuses that are very strong to. Different but still strong. Also when playing Chinese you always should take advantage of getting writing for free and b-lining to CODL. You will get to medival...

    Egypt is Pwnage

    I agree that Egypts can be good. As every civ can be realy good. They can be realy fast in the beginning as we have been talking about earlier. However in the long run I still don't think they are the best civ in tech though. This game that you describe pretty much states what Egyptains can do...

    Not Impressive Winning w/ Strong Civs.

    well after 50 games its not luck anymore. Then the random factor should have made it quite fair and even for everyone ;)

    Not Impressive Winning w/ Strong Civs.

    I agree on that The debate of wich civ that are the best or most powerfull is is simply a bit ridicilous. However its perhaps slightly more easy to see what civs are best for war and what civs that are best for teching fast. China is one of the best because it leaves so many options. you...

    Badly planned civ concept

    Don't forget the best civ... The Spanish! :D Its just learning how to use all the civs. Heck even the Mongols are quite strong if using their bonuses in the right way.

    Civ4 and CivRev comparisons...

    The Civ rev is adapted to play online MP. This is why its more action, A game only takes a couple of hours, and is less micromanagement. How fun would it be to play MP if the other player took 10 min/turn to sort and fix little thing in his cities? I would say this game is a mixture...

    Egypt is Pwnage

    This all sound like you build smart, conqurer early and expand fast. However your numbers don't seem accurate. In what year does all this take place? Lets say you had 8 cities just before year 0. In the year 0 the average pop could not be higher then 6. But more likely around 5. This is...
