The "Respawn AI Civs" option doesn't work well with regicide:
Civ3 PTW game, normal rules plus regicide. After the Ottomans attacked me for the third time I'd had enough. I was pressing near his capital so he promptly nuked mine. The next turn I flung everything I had at his, and about 40 smoking hulks of modern armor and 20 mech inf later, I got the satisfaction of watching his king die. Except he didn't. A new city popped up nearby, and the next turn another city.. both of which I destroyed again. Still no message about defeating the Ottomans, and my citizens are getting very war weary. I finally found him down at the south pole, going for a cold swim to relax from the pressures of office apparently. The destroyers can't attack him, they can bombard but it does no damage. The marine can't attack him either. I'd really like to hit him on the head with an ICBM, but that isn't going to happen. He's invincible, and he knows it too. He won't give me anything for a peace treaty, and what's this? I can assure you that he had neither of those techs when I took him out. I guess when you are stuck at the south pole you have nothing better to do than research.
