the one that comes with the game is garbage. its not really very fun to play on. get marla singer's its much better

why would anyone want to change the American president from Lincoln to Reagan? Im not bashing on Reagan, but most academics consider Lincoln the best in our nation's history. I think Firaxis did a good job with who they chose for all the leaders because not only did they pick people who were...

i used to think civ2 was a better game for its time, but now im starting to change my mind. although i do think that espoinage and gorilla warefare, my two favorite things, are not nearly as fun in civ3, i like the other changes. i think you just have to be more aggressive. in civ2 you could...

yet again, one fateful decision has turned the tide of the game. after spending hours rebuilding the delicate balance of power that would let my persian empire live in peace, i upset it with one move. since i was starting to worry about the greeks and they were about to take over the romans...

The thing I like about civ2 is that you can wage a "modern war" (with tanks, nukes, etc) without having it take forever. When mulitple civs have mobilized their armies in civ3, turns can last a ridiculous amount of time. Also, from my experience, civ3 games are pretty much already decided...

You know, this actually did happen in real life during WWII when the Italians attempted to invade Ethiopia and were repelled. However, I agree that it is kind of annoying.

it would be nice if there was some way to add new music or simply change some of the songs. I know there will probably be some new songs when the expansion pack comes out, but it would be nice if there was some way to put what songs i want into the game. In some Electronic Arts games you can...
