Thanks everyone for their responses, sorry for the slow reply, I've been recovering from a nasty chest infection and have been able to do nothing else but sleep and cough. The reason for the high losses of the Romans btw is the fact that they are technologically so far behind everyone. Chinese...

This is done as if it is a wiki page. The first post is done as if the main article, which will be updated, with further posts as particular battles. Playing as England on Prince with 18 other civs on a Continent. Roman War The Roman wars is a large scale war in which numerous powers on the...

thanks for the advice people, i think buying her a pair of shoes is not the answer... however she has said she wishes she could finish one, esp as I showed her what aircraft carriers could do and I got a "wow I want her"... perhaps we should try the quick match... that would surely solve the...

I've been playing civ 4 now for a long time, love the game, played civ 1, 2 but missed on 3 for some reason... since I've been married, I tried to get my wife to play the game, about 6 months ago, I finally convinced her... but here is the problem... she loves starting games so much she just...

Thats very strange, I was in a war with an AI where we both centred our war efforts on the tank. Barcelona (AI city) became the focal point of all my attacks. Without that city they lost their only way to produce tanks and they were doing just that at an alarming rate. I had three fronts in the...

Elizabeth did have complete power. She dissolved parliment on several occassions and ruled without them. She used parliment to solidify her power, but got rid of it when it didn't suit her. She was very much her father's daughter, and that kept parliment into touch. When the Stuarts came to...

In the game England has a single landmass, which use to host the Maya and Arbian empires. Before that war England looked else where to expand instead of waring with the two nations when it wasn't ready. Just to the north they found a rich desert of incense, planted three cities (Carlisle...

Technically neither of the sides fighting the English civil war won. When King Charles was arressted and executed, Protector Oliver Cromwell took over the English nation and his government was a Republic not a democratic like the Parlimentarians wanted. When they objected and wouldn't pass...

Incorrect. Elizabeth I was actually queen of England and had complete power. Even now the Monachy of the UK has the power to stop any law being passed through Parliment, however this right has not been used since 1707 and would cause massive controversy in todays world. However the push for...

Thanks :) - I've got the third episode ready. However there are no more episodes at the moment (the wars aren't waged yet but I'm working on it), unless people would like to read about other AI wars that have gone on. I've got Korea vs Portugalese Alliance (2 wars in one episode), Egyptian vs...

Episode Two - The England - Arabian War Presenter 1: The Maya were gone from the continent. Their people under the rule of the English and their leader dead but something was among them that the English had not counted on; Arabian longbow men. Presenter 2: Together with the actions of...

Written as if in the style of a television program filmed hundreds of years after the events. There are two presenters. Anyone that appears like this: "name" is suppose to be an actor acting as a person from the time who has left a diary or written a letter to someone in order to give first...

i think the musketeers are the worst UU in the game. the only difference between them and the base unit is the movement bonus of an additional 1. Does anyone agree with me? Or are there any other contenders?

Agreed, useless wonder

I've never lost in the modern age, but I've come incrediably close. My 30 city empire was overrun by 3 armys, I was down to five cities, but good cities. All of them had good production and was building the counter offensive forces, which included aircraft, tanks, artillary and infantry. After...
