    Stack Commands

    Thank all of you for your responses. As it turns out I needed to wake the units up. I did not previously know about that requirement. Thanks!

    Stack Commands

    How exactly does one go about using the stack commands. When I select a unit that is on the same square with other units - I try hitting J, or X, or Shift-J, or Shift X, but NONE of them ever move more than the one unit I have selected. I do get the movement circle and red line for me to...

    I plan to get 1.22 soon, but I wanted to figure this out first.

    Starting out with Masonry, Pottery, and RADIO??????

    Just recently, I started a new epic game, and playing as the Americans, it told me that over time my people had discovered the secrets of masonry, pottery, and RADIO!! Radio at 4000 BC? What's going on here? Is this a bug in the 1.20 patch? Will downloading the 1.22 patch fix it...

    1.20 patch

    I've noticed two things since I downloaded the 1.20 patch: 1. I no longer have the people offer to improve my palace, and no longer can view the palace. The F9 (isn't it F9?) key doesn't work anymore, and I do not have the Palace view button on the info box on the bottom right of the...

    Anyone here understand the combat calculator?

    Expected hit points left? What do you mean? One one hit point can be lost in a particular exchange, right? I know more than one can be lost in a battle obviously, but in each exchange, somebody loses one hit point and only one, right? This is based on my assumption that (and maybe I'm...

    Set Snoopys Terrain as default

    how exactly does one replace the art, since it seems that the snoopy files aren't identical in name and number with the default one. If I just "replace ALL the default art with all the snoopy art, or all of one folder - what if there are things in the original that snoopy does not change, and...

    Set Snoopys Terrain as default

    Good points about just switching the art. I'll do that. As for the modifier. I'm a bit confused. A while back I wanted to change all of the civ colors to my liking. I first made a copy of the default, put it in a safe location, and then changed the colors in the default. I made...

    Civ records? / Fast Players?

    I am interested to see if anyone here keeps or knows their all-time record of wins and losses since they started playing Civ or at least Civ III. I didn't start playing until just a few months until PTW came out. I'm also curious as to whether folks out there play slow (and basically...

    Set Snoopys Terrain as default

    The readme said to put the snoopy files in the "scenarios" folder - which is in the "Conquests" folder. Then, when you get ready to play a new game, instead of going to "New Game" on the main menu, go to "Civ Content." There you will have a list of scenarios and scenario maps. Select the...

    Anyone here understand the combat calculator?

    The Civ III combat calculator (version 2.0) which I found on this site has a long list at the bottom of 0-1, 0-2, 0-3 for the defender and 1-0, 2-0, and so on for the attacker. What do these lists refer to? Am I right in assuming that the top two percentages upon calculation are the chances...

    Terrain Improvements

    collin_stp -- I like your ideas there - especially the bit about needing the raw materials for production. One thing I would add is that maybe the production bonus from roads and railroad bonuses should maybe be limited instead of eliminated, because producing and especially...

    Anyone ever entered a Golden Age in 2049?

    I finished a civ recently in which I entered my golden age in 2049 after one of my F-15's prevailed in battle. And no, I did not win the game. I lost histographically. I did have 9 space ship parts built, and no other civ had more than 5. I needed about a dozen more turns to get the tech...

    Espionage and Preferences Questions

    On the Espionage board, at the bottom in the middle - it refers to Spy Experience - it always says "Regular" for me. Can your spy experience change? And if so, what does that mean -- a higher possibility of success? Lower cost for missions? Also, what does the "Show City Pop...

    5 Questions for anyone who has answers . . .

    I thought deals could only be cancelled where (1) war was declared, or (2) the time period was up and it was not renewed. How do you go to someone and ask for it to be cancelled?

    5 Questions for anyone who has answers . . .

    For anyone who can shed some light on the answer to these questions for me . . . much thanks in advance ! 1. Since the “Show Wonder Initiation Pop-Up” option is defaulted at OFF on most difficulty levels – shouldn’t the F8 option then EXCLUDE wonders that are under construction but not...

    Question about Scientists . . .

    Thanks. One more question. What exactly does the "beaker" count mean (or do). I see the display, but if science research is advanced by funding from commerce, then what are beakers for? Is one beaker equal to one commerce coin towards science?

    When SOMEONE ELSE builds the U.N. . . .

    Two questions: (1) I have played through 6 games combined in Civ3 and the expansions. I have won twice, once Diplomatically and once Histographically. However, a couple of times, all in games I lost, another civilization built the U.N., a fairly long time before 2050, but there was...
