I have it. The source code to civ1. I'm not kidding around either. My mate was emailing his uncle about advice for uni courses (should I pick up law? Is it too late? etc) and they had a kind of side conversation going on about computer games. The uncle mentioned he still had a box full of what...

What determines which two races are nominated for election? I'm a newbie Moo1 player and its trying me mad! Btw, I'm loving this game! I'm a civ1 player but the AI in this one is blowing me away! EDIT: I've googled/gamefaq'd/RTFM etc but I can't find the answer to two more of my queries. 2)...

Here's a list of Civ1 exclusive jargon that's been used over the years. It's all about summerising different playing styles in just a few cheap letters. ACR: Ancient Conquest Rush. The mass building of primitive offensive units in the first stages of the game in order to win through a...

Which building do you think is the best? These three (Barracks, Temple and Granary) are likely to be the first ones you build but which one works best for you? Or another way to put the question is: If you could only build one of these in each city, which one would it be? This is really a...

Because I'm imageshacking this pictures? Maybe. Or maybe this story will clear things up. Warlord difficulty, 3 civs, settlers cost set to 100. I started and played this game to try out what it would be like if settlers were over 200% more expensive. This proved to be a lot more fun...

We will simply swap the save game around. How about one of these scenarios? http://apolyton.net/civ1/civ1scenarios.shtml Modern version of the World map would be cool. Anybody?

I can't find it anywhere on the net. I know it's 1 turn per 20 years and then sometime it switches to 1 turn per 5 years or something.. Anybody know?

3, 4, 5, 6 or 7? Why? Most times I just play against 7. I wish you could choose more but then there would have to be more civs in the game. Sometimes I play against 3 just for sport. Have you ever chosen 4, 5 or 6? Why? And how did the game go?

In my latest game Gandi is dominating the game. My coastline defences are barely holding the Indian landings. I'm playing for sport, Gandi has already clearly won the game. While my scientists boast gunpowder India already has battleships. This game is very fun. On my first turn I randomized...

*cough* Curious, does anybody use forts? My last game I put fort at the border between me and the Greeks and placed a Phalanx in it. I used it as a grouping group before sending my catapults off in armies of half a dozen. They double the defence and I reckon are quite underrated. Have...

This is a account of a game I am currently playing (on King level). Normal game options. I played the Germans because I've never really played them properly. The early years of the German civilization was bland. I found myself on a medium-size island with incredibily average terrain. There...

Me (bored, lonely) + Fireworks = Civcomical. A comic full of inside civdos jokes and clean humour. Enjoy. Civcomical 1. Civcomical 2. Civcomical 3. That's all for now (hehe, I remember what happened last time I said that) I hope to write/draw up more.

Everywhere where there is civ1 fanatics discussing their favourite game.. there is bound to be someone who picks up the topic of cheating AI. And with that goes the usual "I hate it sooo much how the AI can just talk to you with ANY of their units... but we have to use diplomats!!1!11". I...

50 bucks if you wipe out the Aztecs.. yeah right. Like you actually won't just take the money and run. Has anybody actually seen the AI declare war on another AI when you paid them to? Ever? The only reason I use that "wipe out the evil [insert civ here]" feature at the end of the...

The best Wonder Of the World of the modern era is the U.N. That's right. After many years of civ I have come to accept that the U.N is better then SETI, better then Cure for Cancer, better then any of the others. As you might know, the manuel has this to say of the U.N.: United Nations: The...

http://www.civshrine.cjb.net/ Made by I. You will notice that not all of the links work. That's where you guys come in, if anybody wants to write up a Civilization 1 article or story, or experience/memory or tips and tricks or anything Civilization 1 then feel free to PM or email me with it...

It's a well known fact that the alliances in civ1 are.. well, fragile :) The AI *always* backstabs (if you don't first). In fact, they aren't anything more then temporary ceasefires. But have you ever had an ally stick up for you? For example, in one game the Zulus were totally dominating and...

This is basically a story based on a civ game I'm playing at the mo. Every night before I start the game up I write (in Windows 3.11 notepad) about last nights session. So it's kinda divided up into tiny chapterettes. STILL it sucks, I know. There's spelling mistakes etc which ar the result of...

Had any great sea warfare.. ever? I haven't. Never ever seen a AI sea unit that is actually guarding a sea passage.. What about you guys?
