just a few questions from a returning player

[americanpotatos]

i haven't played civ3 for maybe 6 months now and iv lost a lot of the skills that i had before. so im just gonna ask a few questions

1. is there any way i could get either of the expansions online (via torrents? website? something like that?)rather than buying them? (i have vanilla at the moment)
2. what is the recommended spacing for cities? isn't it between 3-5 squares?

if you could tell me either of these i will be happy and i will probably come up with more questions as I play the game over the next few days

~HAPPY EXPANDING ~

CxxC is best for military victory types (conquest,domination). CxxxC or even CxxxxC often works better for peaceful victory types (diplomatic, spaceship, histographic). Some choice on spacing boils down to personal preferences.

well... considering i destroy everyone in sight i guess the CxxC or CxxxC would be better for me thanks

anyone else got any tips?

You can always get the expansion packs at Ebay for 5-10 bucks.

It's back up to $5 now, they had a Holiday Sale going. Funny thing is, even at $3.34 I couldn't get any family or friends to buy. Turn based strategy gets a bad rap, but I like to think it's just not for the faint of heart.

Maybe I had better purchase a backup copy...
