And it cheated in YOUR favor you bunch of pansy whiners!

This paragraph particularly depressed me:
--
Perhaps the funniest anecdote he shared about how much psychology affects gameplay was his discussion of combat odds in Civilization Revolution. When a player faces an opponent, and has 3:1 odds, Meier noted. That means the player should lose one out of four times. But if players lost at 3:1, they were mystified: “I have 3:1 odds! I shouldn’t lose!”
--
I've never been a player to ever gripe about spearmen beating tanks, once in awhile (like say 1 time out of twenty, which seemed to happen in my games and wa OK), but to hear that Firaxis caved to those pansy whiners makes me sad.
I hope this kind of crippling is left OUT of CiV. I'm OK with losing once in while.
