Does anyone have an idea/ informed speculation about what kind of system requirements it will take to run Civ4? I sure hope my cranky computer can run it without having to buy a fancy graphics/video card...

Well, what was it? Mine were building the pentagon by 700 AD and controlling every resource tile in the world by 1500 (same game).

Hi There. Here, I've compiled some techniques that are, to say the least, a part of an unscrupulous foreign/diplomatic policy. Some of these you may already know - and most of them will not sit well with other world leaders. Get stuff for nothing: This one sounds complicated, but its really...
