Missing Entry in Main Page

From the Main Page of CFC, following the Civ 3 Improvements link gives you a list of the city improvements available in the game. However, Walls seem to be missing from the list.

 

[Thunderfall]

Thanks cromagnon. I will take a look.

Walls are for wussies.

 

[cromagnon]

Agreed Lefty! That's probably why it wasn't in there.

I built some walls for the first time, it was in a PBEM game.

They were corrupt cities and walls for 20 shields that were free upkeep were much better solution than buying aqueducts to get the town defence bonus...

...here is an pic from the battles:

Actually walls are very underrated...
walls:cheap
Great wall:supercheap + culture
combine them and you got a spearman with the defense of a metropolis...

The Great Wall is idiotic. It just increases barbarian defense by a 100%; if you have with barbs then you need to beef up defense. It also only outputs 2 cp/turn; much more worth it to build the Colossus, it gives 3.

I do like walls because they have no upkeep. In the early game now, I build lots of settlers, and need the Walls defense bonus. I've just got Rome to build many more settlers with the demise of my neighbor to fill in the gap, and the walls help.
