When in the Nationalism civic, go into the city screen. At the bottom towards the right (between the specialists and where you choose what to build) there's a little menu that has all of the governor options, plus the option to whip, rush buy, and draft.

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking for. You want a fully promoted tank that you can get right away once you have the techs? There's always WorldBuilder 
Add a Modern Armor and then edit it with everything you want.
And this thread is not meant for looking through. I would guess that the vast majority of questions are asked at least three times

well yes in world builder i can make them as i want them, but say i want to recreate a battle, and need 50 upgraded tanks. thats alot of clicking to make them all upgraded. i thought that maybe it is possible to make the unit and save just the unit. so i can incorporate it into any map i want to make.

You'd have to create a mod/scenario for that, probably.HI

bummer, i like creating past battles and when upgrading them that takes alot of time. i use different maps. i thought there might have been a short cut key to select all promotions or something maybe also lol oh well thanks

You could mod this in very easily; check out the creation&customization section of the forum.
You could world builder in like 100 great generals or whatever and settle them all in a city and have that city spam the unit. Later you can mass promote them by selecting them all and hitting the promote buttons. But doing it in one turn I wouldn't know how to do.

I wasn't sure if this was the right place for this question, but it didn't seem to deserve it's own thread. I was playing RFC Earth 600A.D. as England. everything is going along fine, i luv how u might lose contact wit a civ without an embassy. But then this city, 'Independent' pops up on Ireland. I thought it would work like barbs and i could just take the city, but no can do, i cant get in the borders, as if i need an OB. And I can't go to war, because they're just 'Independent'. Also, when im having a chat with the other leaders, I can ask them to go to war with Native Leader. Who's this? I checked he's not on the Diplo screen.

@Gwynnja - which difficulties? The lower three, or the higher ones (Noble, Prince, Monarch etc.)?
I would really like to see a breakdown of every level from settler to deity. I realize that maybe this isn't the most noobish of questions, but I'm certain there are lurkers out there that have these answers
Hi experts,
I finally got Civilization IV after waiting for a few days.
After installing the game, I have tried to open it but I couldn't.
Whenever I click the icon, the following message comes out.
"Cannot start this program because there is no D3DX_32.DLL. Re-install the program to address this problem"
So I've re-installed the game a few times, but I've only got the same message.
How can I overcome this first obstacle?

Sounds like you are missing/running an old version of directX. It shouldn't be hard to find the most up-to-date version from a quick google search. Try installing it then come back if the problem persists.

The missing d3dx9_32.dll hit me when I installed Civ on my new machine a couple of weeks ago. You can get the current DirectX from the Microsoft website.

I had this problem too. You can google that file (it's actually called d3dx9_32.dll - note the "9"), download it, and put it in your Civ IV folder. You may have to do the same with a file called d3dx9_31.dll.
See this thread http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=232577 for further details.
