    The eternal music debate

    For 50yrs guitarists and musician fans have argued which is better, Fender or Gibson. Specifically Fender's Stratocaster vs. Gibson's Les Paul. There are others, but these are generally considered to be the two finest guitar lines of all. Which do you prefer? I have a couple strats, and...

    Counter-bombard

    I advance an idea: Bombard units have the ability to counter bombard. Artillery only get a free shot if there isn't artillery in real life, so there is a 1/3 or so chance of a counter bombard from any artillery/archers/whatever stationed in a city. Including battleships (a la Jean Bart)...

    Australia Day

    Just thought I'd wish our Aussie friends here on the board a Happy Australia Day. I know it's the day after in Australia, but for me it's Australia Day still. Happy Australia Day! [dance] :bday: :yeah: [party] :beer: :band:

    World Wide OCC

    I was wondering if anyone has (or know of anyone whom has) modded the rules into a worldwide OCC? What I mean is either turning of the ability to build settlers or clicking the never build box next to them as well as altering the Sci rules. (perhaps the shield rules too) I suppose several...

    World Minimum Wage

    This is not a nation bashing thread nor is it a politics thread (as in debating the justification of such) This is purely to ask opinions as to what he might be proposing. The leader of the Democrat Party in the US House of Representatives recently proposed a world minimum wage. He did so...

    Seafaring Suggestion

    England had some far flung, yet highly productive colonies. Under the current system, Hong Kong, Australia, South Africa, the North American Colonies, and India can't be productive. So what about a corruption discount for seafaring civs to encourage them to build a costal civ (or a far flung...

    Mothballs

    I would find it interesting if you could mothball military units. Specifically artillery, tanks, and warships. You would be able to support four mothballed units for the price of one active unit. The downside would be that it would take one turn to reactivate each unit (such as having a...

    New UU's

    I haven't seen any threads pertaining to UU's, so what do we think they'll be? I'd like to see some sort of super caravel for the Dutch. (What else would De Gama sail in?!)

    Enslavement & Privateers

    Perhaps the enslavement could somehow include slavetraders that can ride in ships, and a great wonder outlawing slavery which would require that slave traders ride in Privateers vs. Galleons. Unfortunantly, this sounds a bit like civ2 diplomats/spys to me.

    MoO2 Question

    I know that this technically does belong in the off-topic forum, but the MoO gamers are in here. Is it possible to play multiplayer MoO2 on a LAN? When I lived in the dorm, we were forced to play three person hotseat. It'd be nice to know how my roomate and I will be able to play over the...

    NATO & Turkey

    It's good to see that NATO (france exclueded) will be fullfilling its obligations to defensive measures for Turkey. Kind of like Civ, Turkey has activated its MPP with 18 other nations.

    PTW Editor

    I've been to busy to play for about a month, but now that I have free time to try out PTW, I can't find the diplomacy engine for the editor. I thought it was supposed to be in here. I also noticed that it doesn't have civ2 style scenarios. Am I missing something? This really sucks for me if...

    A Privateer Cheat

    Fortifying blocks a trade route. if your fortify the privateer, they cant trade. then you move in the frigates, DONT fortify them, they are the shield. The AI can't tell whos bockading them since they are Privateers, and they cant remove them because they would have to attack the inocent...

    Workers

    I was wondering when most people begin building them, how often they build them, and how many they generally have. I start building them as soon as i can, and i like to make a worker city with my fourth or fifth city. It is not uncommon for me to have 30 workers for 15 cities or 120+ for a...
