Hi all,
Ok I have a problem. I find my self going to war a lot in Civ3 1.17f. I play on Regent level on small continents and chose a random civ everytime I play. I usually try to play the role of peaceful builder but always find myself getting attacked or being forced into wars.
My problem is balancing my production to give me an adequate defense force (so the AI won't declare war on me) and building up my infrastructure. Can't seem to get it right. It seems that if I concentrate on building defenses I lose out on wonders and land. If I decrease my military production I get one or two wonders, grab a decent amount of land (7-8 cities), but end up getting my "hey nanoo nanoo" handed to me by the AI.
I try to make a reasonable effort on trading techs/luxuries with the AI. I give into their demands until I have a large enough army but I always end up either not having any strategic resources in my borders or having the AI gang bang me.
What can I do to improve my game?
