    Funny Screenshots

    Again, weird more than funny... but I'm just wondering, concerning the last row "Imports/Exports," how my rivals average a net trade balance (Imports=Exports), yet I'm running a huge trade deficit (Imports 120, Exports 53).... um, where am I getting all my stuff from?

    Are you sure the Aztecs didn't build the wonder, only to have the Barbarians capture it afterwards? (That's how those lazy barbarians roll) :p

    10 Fun Challenges

    I think what the scenario referred to was to choose four civs *before* you start (i.e., the English, Persians, Malinese, & Egyptians) that you promise to war against whenever you see them, so if you start a game and find yourself against the Americans, Russians, Persians, & Egyptians, you will...

    What units do you miss?

    1) Dromon (Byzantine) - Extra attack ability in the early ages (and Greek Fire) 2) Javelin Thrower (Mayan) - Archer with extra defense, and enslavement skill 3) Crusader - With the Knights Templar, start cranking these out every 5 turns Of course, the first two belong to civs that aren't...

    1 units instead of 3

    While not a believer at first, I've really grown to like the 3-unit display... makes it really easy to see the strength of any unit at just a glance. Saves time.

    Take a look at the scores in Condor's game... I have a feeling he just might win that one ;)

    What are GPs for?

    I think it's confusing because I use GP to refer to Great Persons or Great People, and to the points (GP points, or GPP) needed to produce them. :king:

    Wouldn't it Be Nice for a Industrious and Philosophical Leader

    With only two missing trait-combinations, I assume we'll have to see additional traits in any future expansion... perhaps see the return of seafaring/scientific?

    We've talked about missing civs, how about missing leaders?

    America - Jefferson (influential idealist, philosophical engine behind the Declaration) America - Jackson (just because I'd love to see his ugly-mug in the diplomacy screen!) England - Churchill Japan - How can Mutsuhito (Meiji) not be included? Seriously... Persia - Xerxes Russia - Lenin...

    The Ten Commandments: an authoritative thread

    As a non-Christian, I would view a monument to the Ten Commandments in the courtroom in the same light that I would view a judge who sits at the bench attired in a chasuble and mitre. Even if there is no overt influence on the adjudication, the feeling and appearance is one of preference of...

    The Ten Commandments: an authoritative thread

    I think the Establishment Clause has been interpreted as also prohibiting the preference of one religion over another, not necessarily only through lawful establishment of a national religion, but also by "excessive entanglement" of government and religion and the appearance of preference. I...
