Shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, sautee it. There's shrimp kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo, pan fried shrimp, deep fried shrimp, stir-fried shrimp, pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp san'wich...
Civ3 is like a box of chocolates...

If you want plasma rifles so bad, add them yourself. Firaxis won't add units to their game just to get that one extra sale. (I hope)

If firaxis starts putting in dumb futuristic units like the plasma rifle, which belongs in say alpha centauri two, then I'm going to wait for space empires five to come out instead of buying civ III. LOL

What Civ3 needs... is fashion.
What else has played such a dominant role in world politics and civil happiness? If people wore moccasins you can bet Kruschev (I know that's spelled wrong) wouldn't be so keen on banging his shoe on the table. Certainly, fashions have signaled economic shifts and trends. With a fashion factor in Civ3, more realism, depth, and retro feeling could be used to augment this great game.
Fashion would have far reaching consequences in all parts of society. For example: In the late 1900s you should be able to measure the morale of your troops with a special "mood ring" feature that appears on the icons. All units so upgraded would recieve a 25% attack bonus, as enemy units would be impressed and less likely to fight after seeing how stylish and trendy the enemy forces are. Also around this time a new "disco bar" improvement could be build, increasing trendiness and happiness. Building lots of these makes you less trendy with other nations after disco goes out of style, but having a lot also increases the chance of getting the "John Travolta" leader unit.
Of course, everry time a style went out of fashion massive civil disorder would occur, bringing down democracies and such. To balance this, fashions could be offered as bribes to less trendy nations, increasing cash from exports while increasing world happiness due to the closing of the "fashion gap."
And in addition to all this, the final win-the-game project should be the "Ultimate look." What will happen when this new trend is released upon humanity? Only time and lots of People magazines will tell...

I want Atlantis as a civ... you start with the entire tech tree researched, but every turn there is a 75% chance all land that you inhabit sinks and you civ dies.
