	Civ2 manual Got spare money?

hi everyone!

I know this is a long shot.. but I have to ask anyway.
Is there anywhere available to get a pdf or similar of the Civ2 manual/poster? I still have my book and poster but my roommate managed to leave his behind when we moved in here. It would be helpful if he could just alt-tab over to look at the poster, etc.

thanks in advance.. i know its not likely though.

	Put an end to popups!

I saw a scan of the poster on the Net a while back. It was divided into four separate scans and the scanned poster was very worn, but the scans were of decent quality.

Unfortunately, I lost the link to the URL when I suffered a hard disk crash, so I'm sorry I can't help you with a direct link to it. But it's out there - try doing a search on Altavista or a similar search engine and see what it'll come up with.

Good luck.

I don't know where you can get the manual, but the poster is available at the civ fanatics center at http://civ.strategy-gaming.com/

go to the downloads section and you should be able to get it.

hope this helps

Just wanted to thank everyone for the replies. I had already found that poster earlier. It is a rather low quality scan of a really low quality poster.
Thanks all and keep up the posting!

You might also try the Freeciv site - www.freeciv.org

Their documents cover their rules, which are "mostly" the same as Civ2, and you won't have to worry about infringing any copyrights.

I recently bought the Civ II single player in a game bundle and the manual is on the CD as a 2MB PDF! While this is the Mac flavor, I would think that 99% of the text is relevent to both platform. I'll try and email it to you. Failing that we could try ICQ FTP.

Bigboss, I tried to email the PDF manual, but your email address in your profile kicked it back as undeliverable. If you would like to try again or try FTP either email me or post a reply.
