I voted off because it kills the battery on my laptop faster to have it on. Yeah, I play on a laptop on my way to and from work.

I voted that reloading is not cheating. First it is a way for new players to learn the game, by replaying a scenario over and over with slight differences (like moving a swordsman to the hill next to the city before attacking instead of attacking across a plain) and also to relieve the...

Incredible! Absolutely fantastic work!

Nice unit Sween! Thanks for doing all the hard work.

Nice looking unit, Sween. Looks a bit like a NVA regular. Could you also make the the "famous" [glamorized in Hollywood] Charlie? They wore a black pajamas. And you could take the backpack off since they typically travelled lightly.

Leaders of military junta's go by various titles, depending on the country. In Pakistan, Musharref calls himself President. The fact that Musharref assumed the role of "Chief Executive" just points out that he's a dictator, albiet not in the same sense as we think of other government types...

I used to reload very often, but now I rarely reload (unless I make a horrible, horrible mistake). I find that it's much more fun to just play through.

Thanks for clearing that up! I obviously misunderstood the Rate of Fire setting. So, is there a known way to limit the number of bombard attacks? If not, maybe Firaxis could add that setting in either the new editor or the expansion pack (this would allow ships to have many moves but a...

Hi all! I think I found a bug in the editor / game logic (I hope this is the right forum to report this and that it hasn't already been reported). I wanted modern naval combat to be more realistic, so I modified the movement, attack, defense, bombard, and [bombard] rate of fire for all of...

I like the olive and sand because it's the lightest and easiest for me to see. The others look too dark.

I've been trolling this board, picking up tips, since I got the game and this is my first post. I voted for "Ancient Age", even though I just recently learned that this was an excellent way to win (a few weeks ago I would have voted for "only when I get attacked" or "only Modern after...
