    The gall - Polish site tries to make money from fanmade mods

    While I do understand your sentiments, and I personally have no clue about this specific case and will not comment on that, I do like to add something to the discussion. Whilst maybe not directly in response to the original post, some of the comments did trigger this response. Some people...

    Sadly it's not available for half the EU. They won't let me buy it.

    China has 5000 years of history, the US only 250.

    If we are to take the original post as starting point. Which quite some people seem to prefer, we have to conclude that the United States are not really a contender, since Bush assumed office only 7 years ago. If I look at the arguments looking at the current political system I could extend...

    Pacal's (Ball) Court

    I think he didn't want to continue because of the horrendous amount of spam in this topic. Most of which is pretty disrepectful. Be glad if he continues, just don't demand stuff.

    Suleiman's Harem

    You do know that Pacal was one of the first aeronauts: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:PacalTree.JPG That makes a fun space race victory ;-)

    Suleiman's Harem

    If you're interested in a 'fun map', you should try Terra. It would give an opportunity for a nice story. A whole continent for you to colonize. A shame you already portrayed Joao and Willem, it would be a perfect cliche. Or you could try to turn it around and use Pacal to colonize the 'Old World'.

    Researchable PM-based history quiz

    Here it finally is. I didn't think it was so hard to create a quiz that is not easily googled. I'm not sure about the difficulty, so I might adjust some things. If it is too easy, the first with all answers wins. If it is too hard, I might give some clues. I'll have to add an apology for the...

    I won? Oops, I didn't count on that. It means I'll have to create a quiz. I'll try to free some time tomorrow to do that.. It's too late to do it now..

    Researchable PM-based history quiz

    Wooh, I think I have it. Though not because I found a third portrait. It is possible to find the solution with all the other info. (at least if my answer is right)

    More realistic nuclear strikes and reprecussions.

    Threads like these make me want Civ4 to be more immersive. I'd hope for different discussions about WoMD. People making a decision not only based on if you'd get some bang for your buck if you build them.

    wandering wild animals on the map

    I'm not really sure about the 10.000 people to a settler/worker. I know that's what the numbers say, they are a way to get concrete numbers out of abstract concepts. Furthermore I don't think a warrior unit build by your 10.000 people large city would be an 'army' rather a 'more organised' band...

    wandering wild animals on the map

    Nothing personal that I quote, but I had to quote someone. Imagine you a new-fledged civilization. You just discovered irrigation and you are ready to settle. Do you think you start with a metropolis of a million people? Exactly. You start with a small village, maybe even a large village of...
