Great! Thanks!
I noticed some cool things in the military screen. I like the intelligence section where it gives you info on a foreign army. it gives you the composition of the enemy army, the diplomatic relationship between you and that civ, and the economic setting of the civ (the French have set their economy to war, in this screenshot). You can also view the civ's units by city or by unit type.
It gives you a nice summary of your units, your support cost, max units allowed, and a list of your available leaders. I also noticed that it shows you the units you have as well as the units in production with the number of turns to completion. Same for other civ too, you see the units in production and the turns to completion. This is the kind of really useful info I like.
I like how we see pictures of the units instead of just the names. Seeing the units really makes it clearer what we have.
I am really liking how the civ3 screens display information. Both the domestic and military screens present information in a very clear and intuitive way.

Did anyone say something about the map yet? Is it all grassland the Army stands on? Or is it plains in the upper half and desert in the upper left corner? If this is going to be the map of the actual game, I'll see me right-clicking a lot on tiles to find out what it is and I certainly don't want that.

I forgot something. Putting Sid Meyer in Victorian costumes may seem a funny idea, but the people at Firaxis should concentrate more on the gameplay and graphics to have the game released this year. I can live without Sid dressed up. If it's going to be in, anyway, it should be one of the things Firaxis should be concentrating later on.

By the way; its soon time for that "ask-the-team" monthly update, I think. 
Probably they only are "stopgapper", "filler words" waiting the final (more appropriate) suggestion. It looks like the first part is the evaluation one, already working, While the second, the real advise, is still work in progress, waiting for strategic hints after some play balancing. 
is truly in the spirit of multicultural appreciation of foreign peoples.
