    Air defense

    The second one I don't know, but the first one is Aerospace Complex. Gives you a defensive bonus versus air units and stops enemy airdrops into base.

    This game's algorithms are weird...

    Mood, and hence likelyhood of attack, is an individual factor for each village. This means that one village might be pissed off and send its warriors to attack you, whilst another will grant you gifts. When a raiding party from one village performs an attack, the alarm level of the village...

    Navy

    Bad Brett, it is very possible that you always receive more than one Man-o-War. I didn't bother to check, and you always get at least one to transport the troops, so I guess one of more is correct, although not necessarily very precise. While the intervention force tends to be smaller on higher...

    Colonization Crashing

    Edit: Crap.

    Colonization Crashing

    I had a problem with crashing some time ago, although it was not triggered by a specific event. It was caused by low conventional memory, so I turned off sound, and it worked great.

    Navy

    The Man-o-War can only be obtained through the intervention force of one of the other 2 powers. When you declare independence, one of the other powers will offer to supply you with trained forces if you can produce a certain number of liberty bells (your congress is filled when you declare...

    Favourite Nation to play

    A play all the powers except Spanish. The three others all fit my peaceful builder style, and I rarely change that strategy.

    Four Powers?

    As far as I can recall, it's related to your SOL memebership. At a a certain point (I think at 50 percent memebership), one of the other nation's colonies will be ceded to another power. I'll check it out in my next game and let you know. Edit: Yes, it is at 50 percent membership. Achinz's...

    what do you listen to when playing civ3?

    Rock and jazz in a relatively broad sense. Occationally classical, but then only select composers, such as Ravel or Dvorak.

    Favo. Goverment?

    Do have a certain fondness for Democracy, I must say.

    Not Civ3, but Sid Meier-related

    I haven't been here for a long while now, and you know why? I've been at the Home of the Underdogs forum all day. Now, the site is GONE! *Weeps a river* Arrghh! Cry with me, Pellaken!

    Fallout

    Fallout 1 was fun, but a friend has my nr. 2, so I havn't played it yet. He said it was the same only better, though. When I pick up Fallout again, I'll go with a non-brute char.

    Question about getting new disks

    When I first played CivI I didn't know how to save manually, so I had to wait for the autosave. My father would stand over me waiting for me to get done, only to see me press "Escape" be accident, and then wait another eternity.

    Civ1 much better than Civ2

    If one looks at the games on even ground, I would have to say Civ2 is a better game. If not, I get tied up by nostalgia and the fact (as mentioned) that Civ1 was an extreme achievement , concidering there was no game like it. The Civ concept is a great idea, but it only makes for a smashing...

    A poem

    I have no experience with drugs whatsoever, so I'm not going to pretend I know what you're going through, but still, you have my support, as much as I can give you.

    Is there girls playing civ3?

    Just wait for female chauvinism.

    This is NOT a rant...I just want to win at higher levels

    I've found the lever to be trade of techs. In CivII you could just race ahead, even at the higher levels, yet I find that to impossible in CivIII. Trade techs to keep up with the others, and expand.

    Five Pillars For Success

    I was playing regent with the Iriqouis on a medium sized continent with the Americans with me. A got off to a good start with 5 cities by 1500 bc. I traded maps with the Americans, and they had 11.

    Vikings...in a mod?

    As I have written in some other thread, they could also have Berseker unit 5.1.1. (perhaps a bit drastical, but it would be fun to try. Could get a bit unbalanced:) Phantis, I wouldn't like that too much (I think) because such things would bind the game more, I like the way Civ lets you...

    interesting civs excluded

    After reading this I got a sudden urge to make Vikings with Berserkers....5.1.1 :)
