    Sheddin' some light on TMIT video, Space and later game teching.

    Hey everyone! I've been/are on of those players who almost always go for the Lib-MT wars and stop research after rifling. Pangaea all the way, it's just a non-stop conquering spree from the time you hit the first AI to the last one is dead. However, recently I've gotten my eyes up for the...

    So i'm building for 20K, trying a regent game. It's 590BC and 12 turns(have to save some money) before I discover Theology - which makes The Oracle obsolete - The Oracle can be finished in 6 turns. What happens if I build it?

    C3C - SID - Rise of Carthage - as guided by Spoonwood

    Can we make Hannibal park his War Elephants and start building culture? After first only playing for conquest and domination victories, I have started taking an unusual liking to one special victory condition, the 20k.

    When does resources get distributed?

    As the title says, I am wondering when the game decides the number of resources on the map. If I select a tiny map with two opponents, will it for exampel have less resources than if I had 3 opponents? Or does the game only refer to the map size, and then distribute resources as like if it was...

    Europa Univerasalis map?

    Has there ever been made an "map" terrain for CIV3? The original terrain is trying to resemble real nature, but if anyone has played Europa Universalis the map is actually a map. The closest might be the watercolour terrain, but does anyone know if more of a "map" terrain has been made? :)

    10% research - is it the only way?

    Hey. One question: At higher difficulties like emperor or deity - why does having 10% research seem so populaer? In articles in the War Academy and in the training games there's a almost none that have research at 100% the first 10-20 turns. I generally keep my research as high as possible the...

    I was just playing around with this file in pain and irfanview, and it seems to be quite easy to alter it - having it show a logo for the civ you play for exampel.

    After I've been playing CIV3 on warlord some time ago, I picked it up again and decided to go for regent. However, I wanted to do some testing on settler factories and worker movements first.
