Wow - the number of units you can support for free is determined by the size of your cities. I assume that town, city, metropolis means the size of the city. Town is below the Aqueduct limit, city is below the Hospital limit, and metropolis is above Hospital limit (unlimited).
I've seen military advisor screen shots where the number of allowed units is zero. I'm assuming this was due to government type. So I'm guessing that under Democracy, towns, cities, and metropolises all support zero units for free, and thus all units must be paid for.
Also, now we know that under monarchy you can rush buy improvements but not speed them through forced labor. So Uber won't be running any of his "Death Camps" under monarchy.

Thanks!
It is becoming very clear to me that this Civ3 will stronly disfavor isolationism. In both Civ 1 and 2 I kind of liked to get an island all to myself and develop a whole lot before I went anywhere. Map making and ship building were my last priorities.
I can tell that Civ3 is the other way around. You absolutely must explore early and often!

I just learned from another post that disease is in the game. Can you confirm this BlueHooHoo? Is that in the civlopedia? It might be in the section that talks about rivers! |
To quote from the manual:
Disease kills citizens and units that spend too much time in unhealthy areas like Jungle and Floodplains. Citizens that work in these terrains are susceptible to disease, as are military units that fortify in them.
Your workers can clear jungles and eliminate the risk. Floodplains continue to be risk until you discover sanitation.
So far none of my little people have turned green and dropped dead; no doubt it’s only a matter of time before they start dropping like flys!

SNOOPY - There is an editor!!!! I just over looked it because it wasn't part of the main game. I'll have a look at it later and give you some feedback.

I'm wondering if I should play one last Civ2 game as a goodbye gesture... |
I've been playing a game of Civ 2 every day since some Civ 3 went gold, and I'm going to keep playing it when Civ 3 drops through the letterbox.

and came across search result that linked to civfanatics.com site where they have Civ2 manual posted...
) have far more questions then casual player.
so there is no harm at all.
It may be that the version I have been given to use has some features missing, it's a full review copy, but I'm not certain if it’s identical to the final retail version. No sign of an editor in the documentation either. I'll try and find out what has happened to it (?)
