    Too Many Military Units (Back to Civ III)

    Very good thread Just a short comment to add my vote for some sort of rule to stop unit spam - wrecks the late game due to tedium (and yes I enjoy the war aspects) I am considering uninstalling to an earlier version. Sadly

    Custom Games difficulty

    Hi, I have been using custom games because i like to disable the space race victory. Two things: 1. On custom screen: I can change the difficulty tab for myself but not for my opponents (there is no tab there). So it says for example Monarch for me and Noble for all of them. If I...

    Culture Victory

    Thanks for helpful responses. Just to clarify: I have a French version and the manual says three cities but the civilopedia in the game (incorrectly) says four cities.

    Firaxis says there will be no rioting in Civ4. I WILL NOT BUY IT IF THIS IS TRUE.

    Bartleby said: I don't believe you can avoid pollution by "better play." Unless you consider not building hospitals and factories as better play. Response. True, although I always build the Hoover Dam to supercharge production AND reduce pollution

    Bring back the movies

    Crash to Desktop

    Resources and Conquests

    Sorry of discussed previously: Does Conquests have a lot LESS resources and terrain goodies (eg wheat) than previous versions? It sure seems so to me. I'd like to see choice on the pregame screen to set the amount of terrain resources to high low medium or something like that.
