Be sure all cities are connected by roads, and mass offensive units near the border.
I was once attacked by the Russians who figured they had a larger military - but the vast majority of my units, and all the best ones, was at the most likely location where they'd invade. They moved forward...
Hey chump, keep personally attacking the poster with your lame BS instead of ADDRESSING THE PROBLEM and the ILLOGIC of Civ III's system.
Or perhaps you want to be the official Firaxis Shill on this site?
What happened to my iron ruined an entire game and therefore wasted an entire...
That's right. Attack personally the poster since you can't defend Sid's lack of logic and cheating. How lame.
Has anyone ever wondered if Firaxis HIRES people to act as apologists and shills for this flawed game? I do. :D
Yea. I guess six million posts care about logic, playabilty, and common sense - and you DON'T! :lol: :crazyeyes
Whether it "always will" is Sid's choice - and I hope he makes the RIGHT one. FIX it!!!
I've established my English civ next to two others and am desperately sending out galleys to locate iron having already reached the Iron Working advance.
I very fortunately find an unoccupied island - rare in Civ III :( - with iron!
I send a settler, workers, and military. I build the town...
Some cheating is ILLOGICAL and NONSENSICAL. It goes beyond just getting arbitrary bonuses and advantages. Or am I supposed to accept galleys sailing in the middle of an ocean?! :crazyeyes
I want to beat a SMART AI, not one that breaks its own rules, and does so without even telling you kind...
I got a bug for all of you - the ocean-going galleys!!
I posted this elsewhere, but I also want it in the semi-officlal "Bug" thread".

Why is there NOTHING TO EXPLORE??
Why is there nothing left to explore and settle by the time we get to caravels, and sometimes even...
Why is there nothing left to explore and settle by the time we get to caravels, and sometimes even before?? One reason is the AI CHEATS.
I have regularly spotted galleys in seas (w/o the Lighthouse) and even deep oceans. Once when playing a Realistic Starting Positions on a map of Earth, I...
No rational person who has played the game would say the AI does anything except cheat regularly. And it DOES. I am not just talking about "advantages".
First. I had hoped the AI in Civ III would play SMARTER instead of relying on artificial bonuses and cheating. But nope.
There have...
:lol: From the lack of responses it doesn't look like anyone knows!
I use them so little I don't know. I always build offensive units. Maybe too much so.
And I thought they got a 25% bonus.
P.S. Remember fortresses in mountains in Civ II? You needed to nuke them out! :lol:
Considering the large number of problems we've found with Civ III, and the fact that we can't create scenarios for Civ III :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: the answer is YES!
Being unable to create Scenarios is one of the top five complaints about Civ III. (Corruption, bugs, flipping, navies, being...
Is this what the Firaxis apologists are going to say over and over every single time yet another bug or piece of illogical nonsense is revealed in Civ III?? I guess so. You guys really need to try Fantasy games not those that porport to simulate reality and history.
I didn't wait all these...
