The universe, and everything in existence. It was all created by the "Big Bang," and some say that God had nothing to do with it.

Maybe it's just me, but I never build plantations on banana hexes -- 'cause I don't want to destroy the beaker-producing jungle.

I've always imagined that "wheat" was generic -- that it was the description of "grain," and would include all farm produce.

OOoooooo-Kay. So sometimes I play Civ; in your opinion does that mean I totally suck? Or do I just suck sometimes?

Catholicism never was the majority religion of the Jerusalem CS: There were 4 followers of Catholicism out of 8 total pop -- there would have had to be at least 5 for it to be the majority religion.

I think the moderators ought to move your post to The Chamber [Off-Topic] forum. But since your post is here, let's just say that Mr. O'Reilly should be entitled to his opinions whether they be obnoxious to you or not. I suppose that "The Rev." Al Sharpton's race-baiting opinions that are...

I'm retired, so I can play Civ any damned time I want. Normally, though, I'd rather read a book.

Geez, this thread seems to be getting about 1 response every 10 minutes, so my 2cents worth will be lost in the shuffle. Anyway, I usually enjoy early DOWs -- I say usually, 'cause sometimes I get totally creamed by Alex or someone like that on about turn 25. But usually the early DOWs don't...

If the CS is someone else's ally and you have a spy there, then there is a "Coup" button which will become active. Click the Coup button and a window will open which will enlighten you of the chances of success. If the coup succeeds then the other civ's influence goes away completely and the...

You guys all have W.A.Y. too much time on your hands.:yup:

This!:) Also you can sometimes get the Desert Folklore pantheon as well. I've had a couple of games where my desert cities were so OP that I was embarrassed.:p

Yeah, but you're not getting the benefits of having barb camps to pick on.:p So you're missing half the fun.:D

Archaeology does not include the discipline of paleontology (the study of fossils, including dinosaur bones).:) Like.
