Oh, sorry, I'm still new to the forums, and forgot the etiquette. :blush: I'm playing unmodded PTW (basically, got Gold and haven't done anything to mod it) I see the difference here...when you said "open field", I thought anything outside a city is open. This army is next to one of their...

The knight army, sure, I understand why they did that. It's the Sipahi army I don't understand. It was green on a mountain, with space around it, and they attacked (I think with a guerrilla, which equates to less than a 3% chance of victory). The only reason I can think they would do that is...

After taking a multi-year hiatus from playing Civ, I made the "mistake" of finally buying Civ3 recently. I'm going at it on Reagent right now, while I get used to playing Civ again. One thing I am currently facing is an AI that has send an SoD after me that must be blackening the plains they...
