Naokaukodem, Please put the crackpipe down...slowly...now take 3 steps backward...slowly...easy boy... Hardly a constructive post - warned for trolling.

I think you need to pull 2 civs from Europe and put them in the America's. Maybe have France up in Canada or maybe use the Canada civ mod. I think also you need maybe a west coast (USA) civ. I know you want to be accurate but I think America has way too much room for expansion. Maybe put in a...

Sorry, but I don't play tiny maps. Therefore it does not qualify, for me, as the "Best Map of All-Time".

Interesting.... "The Gaels during the beginning of the Christian era (at which time Gaelic people were mostly restricted to Ireland) believed themselves to be descendants of Míl Espáine coming from the north of Iberia, mainly Gallaecia (modern Galicia and northern Portugal), where there...

I disagree with you, here is an exerpt from John Steele Gordon on American History. "The coming of the steam age transformed the iron industry. The demand for rolled iron for boilers increased exponentially. And between 1830 and 1861 more than thirty thousand miles of railroad were built in...

Very impotant tip that nobody has brought out, BUILD BARRACKS in as much cities as you can afford to.! I build a barracks as soon as it's feasible in all my cities. I love to have veterans right off the bat.

I've run into this before and started having units disbanded automatically by the computer. What I did was contact the Governer of some of my big cities and put emphasis on commerce. This will allow you to start generating a few dollars. I did build some cottages but this takes awhile to...

I play with my AI civs as agressive. I always have barbarians running around. This strategy would never work because the Barbarians attack your weak cities. Also, how did you defend your settlers. A lion, bear, panther or wolves could easily have killed your settler. You must be lucky or play on...

I agree with you Sadistik.

Why insulting? If Britian would have given back all of Ireland we wouldn't have these problems. The British Government is as much to blame as the IRA. It's a pity most people don't see or understand this. Prejudicial media has not helped. To believe the British Government is innocent is pure...

Thanks Zydor, I'll give it a go.

I'm running a P4 3.0 1 gb memory and a ATI 9800 Pro (128mb) video card and I have no problems running a large map with 12-16 civs until late in the game around 1850-1900 AD. It will get somewhat choppy and I just shut it down and restart my computer. Keep in mind I have been playing for 8-9...

I don't build scouts. I just as soon build a warrior and have him scout. At least he can build up experience points plus you can upgrade later. Sure scouts are faster but anytime I've had one (Usually get from a goody hut) he gets killed within a few turns.

Your working on your Master's and you spell the word pity as "pitty"?

Thanks guys! Makes sense...
