bases to cities.. CivIII Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

I don't know if I am going to get used to calling them 'Cities' again. It took me a while to start calling them 'Bases' after playing CivII for a while and then going to SMAX.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I still call them cities too, and also still refer to Wonders sometimes.

it's not a big deal Remove this text

I've called civ2's 'cities' everything from outposts to bases to centers. Same with alpha centauri. I'm more at home with cities, because as TKG said that's what they are, but anything's fine.

I don't think it's really enforced in the game, either. In civ2 it wasn't brought up much, at least to my knowledge.

Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

I believe mine are initially bases, and after i get into the game i start thinking of them as cities...

Got spare money?

A base without a hab complex is a base or an outpost. A base with over 7 is a city, and a city with a hab dome is a big city.
