It's actually because the .exe file is copyrighted, and modifying it is illegal. CFC needs to remain a law-abiding website.

Exactly. I need to see how this plays before I pass any judgements on CiV. And remember, if you're worried that a feature that you love will be cut out, learn to code and start a mod team to put it back in.

I've never seen the AI even simply give me a city! I have culture flipped a holy city before though. Nobody seemed interested in Code of Laws for awhile, so when the Ai finally founded it, it was in a dinky border podunk next to one of my decent cities.

Catherine DoWed because she's Catherine (backstabbing little trollop....)

No, it's not. More wealth= more can be done with research. It also allows your forces to be kept up-to-date with the latest in high techology, it lets you rush build important things, and it powers the mind control probes, so you can just buy other bases. And CEO Morgan has four words for...

Atrocities? It depends. I don't obliterate bases, mainly because the happiness isn't the same system as Civ 4. Planet Busters are rare for me. I don't typically deploy nerve gas, mainly because I can use the slot for something else, or just cheaper build price. When I'm in a brutal mood, or I...

I hate jungles. Less productive, you need IW to clear them, they are unhealthy, and they often hold calendar resources, which I also hate. One game, there was 4 sugar in my capital's BFC! There was one corn, in a valley of hills so irrigating it with Civil Service would be impossible, so it...

New Unit: Inquisitor. Unit built to remove religions from cities, the anti-missionary. Kills 1 population to for a chance of removing a random non-state religion from a city. New Unique Unit for Spain: Spanish Inquistor. It can use Espionage Points to operate in rival cities,for it is cloaked...

In my games, most siege gets Drill and City Raider, while the rest are either Drill and Barrage, or full Barrage. I always knock the def down to single digit, if not 0. If there are 4+ in the city, I sacrifice a full barrage, then a drill/barrage, then a raider drill, so then the other troops in...

Colossus and Great Lighthouse on the water, especially if I'm playing Financial. Pyramids and Sistine Chapel if I'm trying for a culture win, there's a lot of fun to be had in my GP farms with Representation and Caste System. If I had BTS, I'd also prioritize the Great Wall for EPs Any late...

Yes it does. Unfortunately, it doesn't stack, so having 10 units with medic I doesn't = insta-heal. The fastest it goes is if you have a GG give a guy Medic III

We shipped them off to Alpha Centauri?:p You're now getting into some pretty mod heavy territory, because you'll need to figure out how things would be implemented. Will each civ start with its own religion? Could they spread it? Would the older religions actually be replaced by the newer ones?

I checked single and lovin' it, mainly because I'm a teenager, the only dating option is fellow teenagers, and A) Teenagers are stupid. You can't argue with me on that point, even when you're right. I've seen WAY too much evidence from my peers. B) Teen years are difficult. Your body goes...

Tokugawa? He's also aggressive. OP: Get your best siege units, pile Barrage as high as you can, bombard until cult. def. is 0, send all a few off to die in the first wave. Send a fraction of your SOD at the city, I prefer Grenadiers upgraded from Macemen for the lingering CR. Use the last...

Actually, that is an option in Alpha Centauri. After the votes for U.N. Supreme Leader are tallied, the losers have the option of defying. This means that all other factions band together, and more often than not, thrash'em. I always treated the diplomatic victory in that game as a lazy conquest.
