    how to stop nukes?

    What are you playing until the next patch?

    I'm playing Battlefield Bad Company 2 again a lot. Map pack 7 was just released and the Vietnam expansion is out on the 18th. I doubt I will be touching Civ V again until after the new year.

    Random actually. Although my sea tiles were bountiful, the land tiles were average.

    how can a coastal start ever be good?

    I started a game as England this afternoon and London had 2 whales and 3 fish within reach, to say I was happy was an understatement. My 2 expansion cities (York and Nottingham) also on the coast had 2 to 3 seafood plots each.

    Civ 2 player questions

    No, it reduces the time that a cities border expands naturally by 75%.

    use mods?

    I have been using Thalassicus' balance mods along with his new gradual research mod which slows down the tech tree in later game and it has improved the game for me immensely. It's really easy to grab and install the mods via the in-game interface, a big step forward in mod support IMO.
