TMIT, thanks for doing this game. I do all the Nobles' Club games but always as a lurker. So, I stepping up and posting that i'm in on this one, Noble/Epic. If I don't play too pathetically i'll post updates.

It sounds like you are trying to take a "big picture" approach to decision making, that is, taking all the pieces that make this Civ IV pie and putting them together. If that's the case, I'm all for it, if it hasn't been done before. I read all the strategy guides, play teaching games (like...

I first heard of Civ (it was Civ III at that point) when a fellow classmate dragged himself into our 8 AM Drawing class and complained that he was exhausted because he was up all night playing Civ. I asked him what it was and when he told me, I went home and immediately put it on my Christmas...

I'm 49 and I'm a graphic designer and artist. And a former programmer.

I thought Noble was an even playing field. What sort of bonuses do the AI get on Noble?

Okay, but all the John Adams? Where's Phillip Glass? I'm wondering if it has something to do with copyrights and they were able to get adams' permission. Or maybe someone at firaxis is just an adams aficionado. still, i could go for some Low or Einstein in the soundtrack, or any glass.

I'm in Pennsylvania so Baltimore is easy for me, plus i even have family to stay with. However, I'm concerned that i would be the only adult female in attendance, and being neither a "booth babe" or a "hooker" (see above posts) i may be out of my element. But if any other women (and i don't mean...

I am an opening addict, but for different reasons. I started playing civ because i am interested in history, especially ancient and middle ages. i like having one scout and finding new territory, once i've explored all the land i still play but one of the most interesting aspects is over...

Yes, I can't fight my way out of a paper bag when I play Civ IV, especially now with BTS, but I still play everyday. I try to play on Noble because I read in a thread once that I will never get better playing at a lower level. But I'm so sick of losing (or much more likely, giving up and...

Yep, that's a choir robe. And notice the box of wrapping paper too. A man of many talents.

Oh how i can relate. My husband NEVER touches a video game. He doesn't say anything, but i know he can't understand my addiction. I try not to play during the day, but sometimes I do. I wonder if when he comes home from work and not much has been done around here, he thinks "must have been...

This is a take-off on Rene Magritte's painting The Rape. You can see the painting at the San Fran Museum of Modern Art website: http://www.sfmoma.org/exhibitions/exhib_detail/00_exhib_rene_magritte.html (ha! i've been lurking for years, and it takes a thread involving art to get me to post...

Okay, I've been lurking for years and thought it's time to introduce myself. I've been playing since CIV III Gold and now play Warlords. I still suck but not quite as bad as I used to. But i love to play and that's what counts for me. I'm probably not your typical player, as I am a woman, and...
