Preview - Under Siege: The Wars of Israel

[insurgent]

To be released the next weekend!

Since 1948 Israel has fought several wars, struggling for its right to exist.
It is a story of a small but tenacious people, grown tough during millennia of persecution.
A nation of refugees, seeking their freedom and sharing the hope for a better future.
But this people with its new nation has stood in regional isolation since its independence.
With the back up against the wall, it stood fast, and fought to win.

 

[The Art of War]

Please tell me this is on FW or MGE!

Does it really make a difference? I've never been able to find a difference between MGE and FW..of course, I have a Cedric version of Civ2.

 

[Leonel]

I think the difference between MGE and FW is that one of those in the scenario crashes Mac computers. I know I've had my share of those. ;_;

 

[The Art of War]

I meant not Civ2 Gold.

 

[PinkyGen]

Egad, how many cities are there?

 

[insurgent]

MGE and 255 cities

 

[insurgent]

The largest differences between MGE (Gold) and FW are that MGE accepts much longer events files, and that FW accepts major objective cities.

The last thing ruined the Nippon scenario I made for all who play MGE, because all major objectives were counted as 0 objectives, rendering the victory system unusable.

Things are progressing smoothly, it will be released on time (that is, if TF does it on time, which I'm sure he does)...

 

[The Art of War]

Is there any way to have a FW version of Civ 2 and an MGE version on the same PC?

 

[insurgent]

I have both MGE, FW, and ToT on my pc. Simply because none of the versions are really compatible with each other, despite all kinds of contraptions that allow convertion.

I have it arranged it this way:

C:\~\mps\Civ2 MGE\
C:\~\mps\Civ2 FW\
C:\~\mps\Civ2 ToT\
C:\~\mps\scenario\
