Monarch is where I usually start to have problems, so I need a bit of guidance for this game. I'm playing Elizabeth on Monarch/Continents. In the save file I attached I started on the end of an island with Hamurabi to the north of me. I founded my 4-5 cities fast with a lot of chop rushing and...

First person shooters are also better suited for computers. As far as I know, PS2 doesnt have mice.

Yeah, its under emperor diffculty, which means I should only have a 25% bonus against barbarians (vs. something like 400% at chieftain). But I mean the barbarian riders just walked by the korean pikeman/settler duo and attacked my town that had walls and was fortified with 8+ units qq.

I started a new game today, (France, Emperor, Double your pleasure rules, world map, 14 Civs) and when I got to around 680 A.D. I had a funny surprise, a giant barbarian uprising from Scandinavia! I guess I was a little too late in colonizing that part, I wanted to close down the AI's borders...

Chieftan to mess around and laugh at the AI. Monarch if I want a relaxing game. Emperor for a good challenge. Deity if I'm feeling masochistic. But usually emperor.

I always play on monarch or emperor level, but one thing that has be frustrated is always having the AI either annoyed or furious with me. In my latest 5CC emperor game I started off with everyone polite for quite a while. We traded, I gave away the occasional luxury, pretty good times on the...

A friend of mine showed me civ 1 when I was like 10 and said I would be good at it because I was "smart".

In my last 5CC game on emperor, I beat England down and razed half their cities and forced a peace treaty with a bunch of free techs. For some reason I thought it would be smart to sign a MPP with England. Five turns later my 5 cities get dragged into a war against Spain, and five turns after...

I hope it's not your mother's thong, just make sure you don't go around telling everyone that :D P.S. Just to help you with your english: tongue is the word you're looking for, thong is an undergarment that should only be worn by ladies.

Everyone's skill level won't be the same, but I find that emperor is where I have to start thinking. On monarch I can always do the same thing: expand as fast as possible, making peace with everyone, send out a few scout unit to explore and get goodies, trade techs with everyone to stay ahead of...

Wibill said about everything that I wanted to. Although you could possibly place 4 tiers of bombers in the game, its really not worth it considering the time scale. You would have to put in 4 tiers of tanks, put an extra two or three tiers of horse mounted units in there, etc. You might want...

Hey, I just dug up civ 3 and started playing again. I played a few games with the Double Your Pleasure mod and started looking around the net for new stuff, and these forums seem to be pretty active, so hi. o_O As for my game... I can beat monarch level 95% of the time, and emperor I seem...
