only 3? what about my post on the other topic in this forum a little while ago? As for actual games, I tried a small world map and tried to use alliances and such - kind of goes completely against my agressive, isolationist strategies - can't say I have the hang of when to demand tribute and when to trade techs/etc. yet

heh, well until i make it through all the old postings, there really is a constant stream to read Well, unless Ming archives the stuff before I read it all I'm down to mid-march, 2000 in the strategy forum and if i ever get through that I may start reading back logs of this forum. Have to admit I'm finding duplicate threads back a couple months, which is why i haven't bumped up any of the older threads recently like when I first started posting. Anyway, out of curiosity, is there any way to see exactly how many posts one has? I'm looking forward to consolidating my control among surrounding tribes and becoming a warlord (maybe by november?)

I'm here. That makes it six.

I've devoted some time on ToT recently. After initially being disappointed by it, I must now admit that it has grown on me. I'm still not much into those multiple maps, but the extended original game is good fun! Plus, I do fancy the graphics a lot. I'm using its 'normal game' setting to play standard Civ II games, replacing my civ 2.78. It's kind of like an expensive modpack. I don't think that it is very popular with most hardcore civ-fans, but with it now being available as a budget release, I would recommend that you give this game a try. There just is a certain appeal to seeing your foe's ships actually sink after you've torpedoed them.

Look at the time. 04:56 AM !! It's the middle of the night in the America's, they're not up yet. It's afternoon in Europe, most people are at work or at school. In Oceania, they are already going to bed again.

*Comrade Dan brings out a table, several deck chairs, a toaster, some spreads, a tea set with tea, and several packs of crumpets*

The game I'm playing at the moment is really annoying...

*sips tea*

...my population is unhappy, and I don't have the cash to keep the people happy. So my democratic government falls, every one of my 100 cities falls into disorder, and those with nuclear power plants blow up. Not only that...

*bites into crumpet*

...the Spanish cancelled the alliance, the Persians are marching down the continent and the support costs have increased, disbanding the troops on the frontier. If I can get out of this, I'll be the best leader since...me.

So, milk? Sugar?
