    Beta Gauntlet VI

    Well, considering this was a) my first gauntlet, b) my first OCC, c) one of my first played-through single-player (I usually only do multiplayer), I didn't do too bad. I got my spaceship win in 2021 ad. Crappy by your standards maybe, but fine by me ;) I played Qin Shi Huangdi, Chinese...

    The save file you have selected is protected... Possible Fix

    Ah! Found a workaround to the problem (or at least, my flavour of this particular problem). If I start another random game with "no Cheating" selected, I am able to load the other protected games without being sent to the desktop. Phew! :rolleyes: Now, off to ally Khan against Khan again...

    The save file you have selected is protected... Possible Fix

    I seem to have the the same problem, but for a different reason. All my drives are NTFS, no mods, no game crash like Ritaly, but my recent gauntlet(only seventy turns or so for spaceship victory!) just won't load. :cry: Could it have something to do with me regenerating maps? And, is there a...

    Quick Answers / 'Newbie' Questions

    Question regarding the founding of Holy Cities. I previously thought they were found at a random city when the tech is discovered. But I found if I have two or more cities by the time I get the necessary tech, the holy city never is identical with my capital. So, are there any factors...

    Civ Assist

    [delurk] and now for a possibly annoying question : can you tell us when you expect the new version to be ready? I mean, I'm not asking you to reply with "The new version will be posted on March 3rd, 3:18 PM GMT", just a rough timescale...like "I'm done with the major parts, I should post it...

    Civ Assist

    I have another Bug for your collection, ainwood ! ;) I've got the most recent versions (v.1.1.1, C3C 1.22) and am just short of discovering CodeOfLaws. The thing is, the alert monitor tells me "Tech will overrun N/A beakers" (in both windows), although I have the opportunity to adjust my...

    Newbie -- Battle Mechanics Question

    Hi there. Have you built barracks in your unit-producing cities? It does sound stupid, but the extra hitpoint on veteran units could be what you need. Regarding battles : The Rule of Thumb I use : Take your attack value and enemy defense value, and add it. For example : Your Knight has...

    Question : Is it possible to add more than 32 civs to a game?

    Hi everyone, I'm currently working on a scenario festuring the actual geopolitical situation on Earth. But since you can't create more than 31 civs (and additional barbarians), you either have to leave most of africa, south america and part of south east asia unpopulated - or combining them...

    When did you first play Civ?

    in 1992, I was twelve, I bought my first computer(an amiga 500) and I traded a copy of civ for a copy of a good jump'n run I had. I had only played jump'n runs and stuff before, this was my first complex game. My very first civ1 game went something like that : Civ : Rome, Level Chieftain, 4...

    Who plays earth?

    I really liked to play on Earth, but not on Europe. I preferred it to play either America, Aztecs or Zulu, colonized my continent, and didn't expand further until everyone had railroads, to make it more of a challenge... ;) Or, if I wanted it really difficult, I played the English and didn't...
