tacfun - it's not personal, it also pissed me off when some of my friends brag about how they got to kill Arabia in civ... I just know there are plenty of people who would play a mod just for the satisfaction of killing off a nation they dislike, and when that nation is the one I live in, it disturbs me even more than usual.

beernuts - the problem is I only ever got two wars that I planned for... Most of my wars were due to demands by my neighbours, or due to them treading on my turf... Whenever they start it though, they do pay for it... Every civ that ever tried to mess with me went down a couple ranks in score by the time we signed a peace treaty. All of the civs in question were near the top if not AT the top when they offended me. Except for a couple tag-alongs taht signed alliances with Germany... I made the Greek pay already (left them with just one slightly displaced city to the northeast) and the Netherlands will get what they deserve in time. Now I just need to finally finish my business with France. They've been a thorn in my side geographically since forever... I just never had the time to properly invade them. ^^
 
My biggest problem is I like to build and then invade. So I give computer time to build and then I collect my prizes..lol!

But i do not have to worry because I can build nothing because my dear friend Rhye has set out to destroyer and utter kill my weekend by not releasing 2.6 ..lol...hope u got the humor!

I'm afraid my vote goes to leaving Israel in the X-Pack, then. I think I'd rather have Sumeria than Israel.
 
yeah, I also like building before I go in... The problem is that hte AI isn't as patient as I am, and when I tell them to get out or come and get some, they just come...
My first war was I think against Rome but during that war France declared war as I was using their land to get to the northern Roman city that I was attacking... I took the city, signed peace with Rome (who had attacked me or at least instigated the war) and then took otu some French units os I could get peace. Then I had a large war against Germany (that wanted my Iron which I knew would be used against me later) and then while I was trying to bring it to a close, the Russians started on me in the northwest... So I finished up with Germany and then took Moscow and Novgorod and stuff... And then declared on Germany again and made my territory uninterrupted... But they pulledi n Greece adn the Netherlands so now I'm finishing up with that.
Oh, and somewhere in the middle I attacked the Byzantines and the Arabs declared war when I refused to give in to their demands and they pulled in the Ottomans who generoulsy yielded to my Hussars.
It's all quite jumbled in my mind I'm afraid...
The funniest thing is that the Mongols are way behind everyone technologically but they're still pretty powerful and have been waging war on most of the European nations since the middle ages... Peace comes and goes but they are always passign through my lands to get to Rome or France or Spain or something...
Loads of fun.
I'm also helping Rome with resources so they can resist Portugal, Spain, and France. This is a war that always goes through my land so I get to watch it... The Romans are holding their ground very well, even thought they use Legionaries against Cavalry...
Bleh, I'm rambling...

I've noticed that many people have the obsession of polynesians, tibetans, mali, khmer... With the only reason of filling the map as more as possible.
What impact did they have to the world history?
And what impact did the hebrews have? much more!
And, as I've said, there's a problem with the unique units for that civs.


blasphemous -> I have nothing against Israel. I only think that they deserve to be in, no matter if you like or diskile them.

I'm sorry Khift and Blasphemous doesn't agree. I'll wait some more replies, Iztvan and Horton for sure, before any decision. Depends on how many of you don't agree. As it is now (2 disagreeing) I won't do anything.
 
Israel has to be included. Without Israel is like taking out Babylon. I would say that u should include them and if someone doesn't like it let them not choose them. I don't think blasphemous is against it just that he's concerned with peoples moods and actions and what they will do to the Hebrew Civ. Yet again I say its a GAME!!!

Another thaught just came to me...What if I said what about Canada? or the Germans offend me! The list could go on and on and you'll never make everyone happy except me with releasing the mod TONIGHT!...LOL!

tacfun
 
Whats your feelings on removing America and adding Poland? America just makes the mod seem whacked!!! Let the Aztecs and Iqurious have some more room to expand and then we English will come and colonize our slaves...I mean land!...heh

It's not just that tacfun... The kind of influence my people have had on the world is a kind that is not represented well in Civ. We never covered much land, and for only a brief half of a century have we been a military force for the world to recon with. What jewish scholars call "The Golden Age" is a time when most of the hebrews were in diaspora and a large group ofthem thrived in spain and iraq/iran.
Now, the polynesians had influence that fits right into civ... They were great seafarers, they performed awesome feats of naval travel wtih very primitive technology and got to new places far away from home...
And the Mali iirc dominated sub-saharan africa and were an important part of history there. They may not have affected "western" euro-centric history but they were major players in their time.
Now I must sleep.
Good night.
 
Yes but Jewish and Christian Culture have had HUGE impact on the world. Culture is as important as Military too. Hebrews must be added to the game and not ignored. If someone wants to pick on them in the game so be it. Thats there sick mind. Better in the game then in real life I say.

tacfun
 
Don't I win anything for guessing Jerusalem/Al-Quds? ;) :(

I say put Israel in the XPack. As a people, the Hebrews are obviously culturally and religiously extremely significant. However, Civilization is basically a territorial/population game of conquest and the Jews are numerically far too small, through out history, to be of any importance when compared with the other civs.

There is no religion in Civ3. There is no real issue of real culture.
Tiny nations that in reality was only ever threatening militarily in the equivelant of the last 5% of the game shouldn't be in it. Nations that controlled large regions should.
 
I'm sotty tacfun, but as things are now with 2 people disagreeing and you sometimes agreeing sometimes disagreeing, I'll leave Israel in the Xpack.
Hoping that somebody won't dislike the Xpack, then.
I will release 2.52 if today nothing changes.

Yeah, right. Compliments to the winner!
The song was "With A Shout (Jerusalem)" from the album "October"

Did you know the song or just researched the discography?

My CD rack hangs right next to my PC and I have War, October and Joshua Tree from U2 so it was just a chance thing...
:cool:
 
For completing the Israel matter, I thought of adding religions in the Xpack.
I already tried with flavours but as some of you remember, they didn't work.
I have found another way of adding them. It is a bit complicated, but it would give Israel an unique trait (the Judaism) and would put Europeans in disadvantage at the beginning
