While Civ Conquests is a good addition to Civilization 3 I am surprised you are all willing to give Firaxis such high marks.
The Forbidden Palace redistributes corruption, rather than relieving it, bug is enough to drop Civ Conquests below 5 points for me.
Also, the pack seems a little rushed and I think some of the new artwork (such as the new bonus resources, terrain tiles and the craters) looks a little substandard.
When we get a patched Conquests I will consider raising my mark up to 8 or 9 but due to the many problems I will only give it 4. The Forbidden Palace bug has really spoiled it for me since it will seriously affect my high scores (that is, current high scores will not fit neatly with post patch high scores).
