Hi, A few months ago I bought Civ3 Gold, and I'm not really sure what the difference between that and the other versions is... C3C, PTW, etc... What expansion packs/patches/mods/whatever do all of you recommend that I, as a relative newbie, get, and how do I get them? Thanks.h

I have to agree with those who have said it before, Rome was the ultimate civilization. What continues to fascinate me was the technology they had back then. There was one guy I saw a special on once (gotta love the Discovery channel :) ) who was something of the Roman equivalent of Thomas...

Earlier today I had, let's see... 9 Wines, 11 Furs, 8 Dyes, 13 Incense, 9 Spices, 12 Ivories, 5 Gems, 1 Silk (for some reason), 23 Horses, 23 Iron, 10 Saltpeter and 12 Coal, (I'm just a couple turns from killing the last opponent) and my trade advisor says, "We should acquire more resources and...

Ancient. I'm all about exploring the unknown, my little island of light surrounded by a seemingly infinite ocean of dark. It's kind of like the womb.

Ok, that's probably it then. I'll just have to stop playing with Victory Points! That is just kind of silly though... not just that you can win so easily (granted, not that easy on higher levels) by holding an enemy victory point for a few turns, but that they wouldn't take the time to have a...

Wow... so I'm a year and a half late... but I've taken up the challenge... see what I can do with this thing...

I'm not sure how to post a save file on here... If you can tell me, I can probably do it. But I went back to the time I saved it before the Victory to see if I got it again. I even did a few things different, such as not going to war with the Ottomans. Nevertheless, at the same time, I won...

I haven't even touched the editor... I'm running the Gold edition, if that makes any difference. But I'm rather new to Civilization, and these three games are the only games I've played.

Well, ok, it's a real victory, but don't you get a lot more enjoyment out of pounding every other civilization to a pulp than being told "Oh hey, it doesn't look like it, but you've won." And I did turn off Domination Victory, and I know that should be nowhere near enough to get it, but what can...

I can't turn off Domination Victory... I've won three games through Domination, all three with "Domination Victory" unchecked at the beginning. What can I do?

After re-reading that, I should probably clarify, Russia was on the western continent, I saw it during the playback. And another curiosity, not that I'm complaining about this one-- in the screenshot you can see two Babylonian Workers, southwest and somewhat east of Rome. Throughout the...

Please help me... I just won my third game ever, with a Domination Victory. The thing is, I don't want to have a Domination Victory! I want to keep playing and get a "real" victory, so to speak. Space Race, Conquest, Diplomacy, whatever, just not Domination! I read a little and decided the first...
