My favorite map. The limit is 512 and I don't believe there is a fix (its hardcoded).

So true 512 is all you get.

	Suffering from ads?

There's a suggestion for Civ4: Remove the limit (or at least increase it to something like 1024, 2048, or even 4096). Let hardware limitations govern the limit. While I'm dreaming, how about increasing the map size past 362x362?

Only the unit limit hasbeen increased. I think it is now 8192.

harcan25, the best way to fix it is to disallow cities in different terrain types, e.g., desert, tundra, jungle, marsh, even forests (optional). Make the worker "Clear Wetlands" job expensive or even disallow it. If no cities are allowed in forests, then make chopping forests expensive (24-40).

If the game was good I'd do it. WW2 took years. So would taking over the world.

If we were sensible, we wouldn't play at all. think of all the time we are wasting when we could be making money, or making new friends.

	Full PM-box? Change here!

"Remove the city limit" was already one of the civ3-suggestions
And one of the civ2 suggestions.

Don't get your hopes too high

not only you would need a powerful system in order to play a game with thousands of cities, the turns would also be much longer...

A 256 X 256 map with no cities allowed on Tundra and Desert is pretty much a perfect size.

New friends? Who needs them, this community is much more inclusive than a bunch of backstabbing so-called friends.

I have enough friends.
sometimes I need to sit back and destroy some nations instead of making friends.

Hardly........
but I'm busy right now

The key is: big maps, lots of AI players, and you have plenty of time to make friends between the turns

Also, if you know a programming language, and have the compression scheme they used, you could count the occurences of cities that belong to you by reading through the save file.
