Why are everybody at war with me?
Someone took all my cities ; how do I get them back?

 

[omichyron]

What do roads do?
Why can't I build swordsmen? I have iron in my territory. (if you don't get this one, see the one above)

And an actual thought that went through my mind when I first played Civ1:
Why am I not winning more often? I'm attacking them with Phalanxes instead of militias, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

How come the people in my foreign advisor screen look mad.

Why cant my invincible spearman beat up those bombers the AI keeps pouring over me.

Is there anyway to make the game run faster? - I just spent the last 6 hours trying to build my first military unit.

Why do everyone else have higher post counts than I have?

[Becka]

I didn't have enough room to install Civ1, so I deleted this large Spanish file called DOS. Now my computer's acting a funny. What's going on?
