Pff, future tech slingshot all the way :p Nice series by the way Sisiutil, keep up the good work! Learning alot here :D

It's always that ghastly ghandi that wins space race ..

If you want to be realistic b52 bombers and spies should be able to plant nukes too..

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but: it might be nice to add moving landmasses and natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, droughts, godzilla) to CivIV. Although I must admit that not much has changed from 4000BC until now regarding the places of continents..

Balancing out the world map is not important. Who even plays it, the map is just to predictable..

That would be useless because no city is using it aside from being a resource. I'm not sure even that will work. I once had a resource on an island which I did use in the city with road and all, but it would not pop up as a resource... I have no savegame to prove it though.. sbrylski06...

I usually play on the continents map at difficulty Noble and I'm having a hard time finding good places. There are always a couple mountains, deserts and tundras spoiling otherwise good places. Another point is that there usually arent that much rivers for irrigation (essential for these big...
