zboards are great gameing keyboards. But I honestly don't know if I think it's needed for a strategy game.

But get yourself a zboard and then use it to some other games atleast it's my advice.

They should definetley add that to Civ 4

It can't be worth 70$ for civ4 imo, unless you feel you have a lot of money to spend.

damn... some people know how to sell crap!! this board make you a better gamer or whatsoever, and naturally in civ4 you can reassign your keys (they said civ4 would be completely moddable)

Not worth it (though it is cool)

yeah im kinda thinking no, it might be better for like a firstperson shotter though

Yes, looks cool, I would like one, but I'm not willing to shell out more than $40 CAD. plus tax. And preferable less. Unless you can get it with a new computer as part of the package.

I have one and I can't play any FPS games without it. Not good for Civ though.

My keyboard works fine. What I want is an illuminated keyboard, where all the keys are light, so you can type in the dark without having external lights on.

I've seen those, they look interesting, but I heard from a friend that they are cheap, and not good for typing. Of course, I guess you wouldn't use it for typing.

Orrr....

You could just touch type .

complete waste of money

But THAT is really handy, I want that!
