PLEASE HELP ME! PROBLEM... EXELLENT JOB!:goodjob: I've played Europe 1380 and Napoleon's Fall using your mod and I must say you have a lot better Civics implemented than F....is Games has(don't want to get sued). There is a problem...When I go into the civics screen I can't change any civic...

It seems that some of you are still playing Civ3(I decided eventually to Post Part II).Sorry that one slipped...I've now bought Civ4 and it's GREAT.No sense of writing about Civ 3 any more.Instead I will make an article concerning the differences between Civ 3 and Civ 4.Hope I will finish it in...

I agree that the harder it gets everything becomes ''All or nothing''.You have to go for the victory not play for fun and under no circumstance to play for triing something new.When you start an emperor or deity game you have to plan everything from the first year and make sure nothing is...

Only on Chieftain,Warlord,Regent is what Tomoyo said true.On harder difficulties the AI is very arrogant and unpredictable so be careful(he might sacrifice his reputation or declare war with a democracy government!). But let's talk about OIL not nukes!

luceafarul you know a lot of history, very good...Anyway historically The Romans are my favourite civ but in the game this would be The Chinese which are perfect for Conquest victories or The Egyptians which are perfect for Cultural victories mmm... or The Japanese Which are also good at...

Well Psycho on smaller maps(emperor) it's always easier at the beginning where if you bring an ally the others will never join another side but on bigger maps you have to see at the beginning which is the winning side and join it.Don't hurry and you probably will win all wars but remember it's...

Mmmm...This strategy is efficent but often cities near your capitol don't have rivers and then the idea with Hoover Dam is lost:( .Unlike punkbass2000 I think that in a Conquest Victory Hoover Dam and Sun'Tzu's Art of War are the most important not Universal Suffrage.Theory of Evolution is good...

I think it is good but it needs improving.You wrote a short summary with points and lines etc.which is very eficcent but which should be upgraded to a summary in sentences with opinions,advices and others.The main idea is good and I enjoyed reading it.Keep writing...

I like playing the germans very much!:) I think they're a great civ because of the militaristic trait but I don't like very much the scientific one because on higher dificulties(emperor,deity)you can't keep up in science - no talk about beeing ahead.:lol: The panzer is a formidable...

Actually the Romans were more commercial than industrious because they had the largest network of roads in the ancient world and the best commerce(they had to,they needed a lot of money to manage their empire). So umm...I think the Chinese are a lot more suited with this trait.

Yes this is a commonly used tactic and is flawless.You practicly snatch the Victory from the AI's noses.Very clever.;)

mikezang you should start playing on emperor!And remember the bigger the map the harder it gets.I played the germans,tiny,monarch(won before entering in the ind age) then I played the chinese,small,emperor I got bombed by ICBM's but still won by conquest!(mobilization+industrious+factories=Total...

Honest to be I never won a diplomatic victory only CONQUEST.But I have always been interested to keep my reputation clean.It helps you negociate all profitable trades(luxuries for techs,gold for techs and the crucial MA and ROP which are esencial in military conquest). One question: By what...

Yes you are absolutely right.I think that the tendency of Hybrids appears at higher difficulties(emperor,deity) where the human player needs to squeeze everything he can out of his cities when the AI gets popped up like a chicken.:D The AI has a huge production capability and starts with great...

Yes My absolutely favourite method of Victory in Civizilation III is CONQUEST! So I know all about eliminating other civs and it's fun.I like it when you see their furious face for the last time and say ''Bye,bye''. Oh, and I decided eventually to Post Part II because it is very important...

Yes I always noticed some cities are better at doing something than others but is it possible to have Hybrids in all corners of your empire so that everything functions properly? I mean The cities near your capitol should be very rich but also very productive...So is the difference of all your...

I agree OIL is the most important! Once in an endgame on emperor it was just between me(China) and him(Persia).He had ICBM'S but he only lately found a source of oil and only had 6-7 tanks +mech infantry(I was backward and couldn't create nukes).I declared war,mobilized and created continuously...

VICTORY!:) I finally won my first game on emperor and I think i can go further. Thanks to you guys who post all the time and especially to you Ision.All your articles are amazing.:goodjob:

An exelent job indeed.;) And you are right about resistors I hate them more than anything(even the enemy army) because my troops are useless when i quell a resistance. At least when i'm fighting I'm having fun but when I'm killing resistors and starving ''inocent''citicens It's something I do...

I am actually making this transition right now!:) I played on a Pangeea map(tiny) on Monarch and WON by Conquest before entering into the industrial age! Now I'm playing a continents map(small) on Emperor and the AI is technolocically with 6-10 techs ahead of me(only one AI civ left!).HOWEVER...
