    SO SO tired of the computer cheating

    1) Correct. I did not have open borders. I watched the units pop up next my city. Said "WTF". She declared war and captured my city. And you are right --> CIV is supposed to work so that at the instance war is declared, all enemy units are teleported to the border 2) I was at war with...

    I think you can trade with the cities on the coast but not with the cities in the interior

    Is civil war in?

    no clue. I kinda liked it. Made feel like I was running a police state and the populace was under my boot

    Is civil war in?

    I thought that the long article in the back of the manual said that they took it out cause people were frustrated with it from previous game

    Having a hard time competing

    I have tried that and usually the other civs have 4-5 cities to my 2 and probably double the army. It just seems to me that I am moving in slow motion while they are moving double speed.

    SO SO tired of the computer cheating

    I didn't realize that there were movement promotions so I stand corrected on the ships being able to outrun my ships. But I have real questions when a fourth placed civ is able to jump 4-5 techs ahead of everyone else, upgrade their units with minimal gold and do this in 4-5 turns. No one...

    SO SO tired of the computer cheating
