    Does the Civ 4 disc need to be in your drive while playing Civ 4?

    "However, it is NOT legal to crack a copy protection in order to do so." Well if that is a law its kinda funny. As you state in germany (and most other countries what i know) you are allowed to make backups, yet a copy protection prevents you from your allowed right, in other words the...

    We feel ripped off by Firaxis.

    From reading things about which machine can run it and which cant, i assume that one of the problems may be that Firaxis tried to bring it to as many peoples as possible (several once stated that Civ fans dont have the highest machines as it was never neccessary) speaking to a get a awefull...

    Does the Civ 4 disc need to be in your drive while playing Civ 4?

    Well not here, we had even recently a trial about this, a guy made that and was set free as the copies where his property and so he can do with it what he wants unless as said he makes money with it, then it becomes illegal as only the company is allowed to make money out of it. Dont know how it...

    Does the Civ 4 disc need to be in your drive while playing Civ 4?

    Its legal to make 3 copies of your orginal cd, and you can do with that copies what you want it just becomes illegal if you get money for it. So doubt it matters whatever you make 3 copies of the cd and give them to your friends so you play lan, or you remove the cd once the game is started and...

    We feel ripped off by Firaxis.

    German Facist quote??

    No one doctor back in that time, said so because he had the guts to say it after that he had to kill himself, sure no other doctor would than say the same thing. If you start with this then you can easily say that if he had been more compitent in military matters from the start on, Germany...

(One doctor even official said so, after that he had the gun on his desk) The brain for all this worked propoganda was Göpels, who learned to take advantage of Hitlers speech ability. If Hitler had been such a...

    Why bombers can not re-base on carrier now?

    You miss something here the B-25 Mitchell was a two prop medium range Bomber, which was quiet smaller as the 4 prop longe range Bomber displayed in Civ4. I would say that the Bomber displayed in Civ4 should more show, since the fighter shows the british Spitfire, the british 4 prop longe range...

Its just ridecelous that in order to get money you need to open your borders for the other nation military aswell. The European Union has an open border agreement for...
