Farmland!

[Goshawk]

This is something I really miss in Civ 3. My workers towards the end of the game now have nothing to do, back in Civ2 is was great to go back and basically irrigate everything again.

It really got your mind off the war it took to conquer the land in the first place.


Looking forward to Civ4!

what u think about the idea that foodsupply changes in a modernn/industrial age, like installing farmcomplexes like airfields today and agriculturaltradingcenters in the citys provide that continentalwide foodsupply. the farms could us modernfarmland workers have installed

well, food increases (on an irigated square) with railroads

I'd like to see some way of implementing breadbasket and high production cities that rely on eachother for certain things instead of the crude model used atm.

Yeah, but farmland looked cool whereas all those railroads look cluttered. Why have nice graphics, if you are going to cover them up with railroads?

I think it would be more realistic, and it's something that is simple to implement, and many people would remember from Civ2.

The only new tech it took was Refridgeration, and then to build supermarkets to get the full benifits.

I think that system worked great, workers building railroads is too easy to do, I always end up with plenty left to do nothing but clean pollution. They might as well all be on automate if thats the case.

The simplest ideas are usually the best.

Have too many workers? Pick on a ******** neighbour and send them there to improve the lands for the newly annexed part of your empire. Works wonders!
