Basically, I want to know what kind of map settings would be best to have the most fun. Such as what kind of map, how much water, temp, age, climate and civ. I am very new to the game (well, at least the concepts) so I am willing to try anything. By the way I have just the original.

Title sounds misleading, but I remember having a problem when their were max amount of players as not being able to trade with some of them because their face didn't fit onto the trade screen. Is there anyway to get by this.

i only have vanilla though :(

Alright, thanks. And how imperitive would it be to get your 1st city on a river. I notice that having one on a river makes you very strong in early combat because of all the exrta pop, you can make an army very fast

thanks For the first question, this is what I meant

What does all this mean with "Fill next turn" and don't let your city reach population limit. And what does the extra food in your granary box mean? What if there is no more room to expand, what should I do then? And when should I start building military? And how many should i make?

Now when starting a new city, is your goal first to ensure it will grow, and then to work tiles to give you maxinum shield output and then back to the fastest possibly growth? Because this is what I do: I make a new city, and set it to either build a worker or temple. (normally 10 turns...

I was thinking along the lines of Bamspeedy. I guess I will never get to see a civ 3 replay (:( ) Anyways, how long do you guys play at a time. I get sick of this game after 45mins of play

thanks for the help guys. I'm proably missing it, but I can't find a game that someone posted with a step by step process of what they did with screenshots.

ok, thank you. If I could just watch 1 recorded game of a semi-good person, about 80% of my questions would be answered:)

I have had this game for year, and haven't really played it alot in that time. I kinda get the gist of the game, but need help in knowing where to start out. I am completley lost as to what to do in game. I have read some of the strategy articles, but don't know when to apply it and basically...
