    GOTM26 Final Spoiler

    Adventurer :dance: :dance: :dance: I won!!!!!! :dance: :dance: :dance: To date, I haven't had much success in Civ4. After reading jesusin's report of his first 10 turns in GOTM25, it was obvious to me that my early game was the culprit for my "bad luck". A sincere thanks goes to jesusin...

    When will "Beyond the Sword" come out for mac?

    It's tough to look at the BOTM spoilers--BtS sounds pretty cool. I guess I'll stick with the vanilla GOTM for now.

    GOTM 10 final spoiler

    I survived! :D OK, I lost the spacerace to Asoka. On Adventurer level. But I was at least there to see it happen! This was my fourth C-IV game ever, and my second to make it to the modern ages, so I was happy with my loss. I attempted the GOTM last month, but threw in the towel early when...

    Civ IV G5 Performance

    I'm with enkiduMT. Post-patch, I've been happy with the performance on a 1.8 G5 iMac. Yes, the frames per second could be faster, but I was well-aware going in that I was at the min specs to run the game. It is definitely playable--and fun!

    Civ4 Roll Call: Who has it?

    I pre-ordered from Amazon a couple of weeks ago. I must not rate very high over there--I haven't heard a thing. I mean, I didn't sign up for Amazon Prime because I wanted help developing patience! I guess for now I am stuck with wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'. :religion:

    GOTM 39: Spoiler 2 (End game -or- entering industrial age)

    Open [civ3mac] I finished mopping up the planet with my panzers in the mid-1800s. (Yes, I am quite aware that this is a pathetic date, but at least it adds one to my “win” column, which, at my skill level, is a good thing.) Inspired by Shigella’s 2050 20k win in GOTM38, I decided to go for a...

    Mac Utilities for Civ3

    I know that RealBasic has Visual Basic importing/converting capabilities, from which you could compile the project for Windoze, Mac, AND Linux. But I haven't played with it very much, so I couldn't tell you how well it works.

    Classic 33: Saves Now Available!

    I have now finished my GOTM, thanks to some "help" from the stacks of AI modern armor spilling into my borders...but that's another story. I submitted my game, and the receipt I got back has my entry class at "open", but the downloaded zip file on my desktop is clearly titled...

    Newbie to GOTM

    Me too...me too...me too.... GOTM 32 was my first outing also...let's just say I hope my sophomore effort goes a little better. But this whole site (and community) has breathed new life into Civ3 (for me) and made it even more fun than before. Thanks everybody!
