No, it is not challenging. It is stactic, same thing every game. You are not competing against each other, you are competing with predetermined computer restrictions. When the freedom of action is given to a human, as opposed to computer restrictions, then that will be a challenge.
And of course you cant do it every game. I never said you could. This entire discusion was weather or not commie is better then fundy. If the game progress to this point, then you better have 40 citys, good supply and demand. And nobody has provide sufficent information of why I might be wrong.

From personal experience I have found 70 cities with veteran cavalry or dragoons combined with ironclads just seem to do better than 40 cities massing caravans to die against my mass ironclads and dragoons. It might just be me, but I don't know. Just always seems to go that way.

Ok, now i will voice my thoughts on the wonder issue. Ok, you guys can go back and forth either way its really illrelevant. To have a wonder or to not is illrelevent too. Really guys, having a wonder is always a plus, but that doesnt mean you can win or loose more or less with out it. It just means you have to adapt and compensate for what ever the other people have. Its easy to run a gov with no michs, is easier to do it. It doesnt matter, All you have to do is do the best you can with the best of what you have agains what the other person has. Having a wonder to be frank dont mean anything if the other knows how to play against it. I could have michs, and that can be countered so easily... Its only 3 citizens made happy. Thats a temple and a collesium. Either way, who cares? Why dont people just play the game, with the randomness that it creates. Isnt life the same way, Deal with what you get and play the best with it. Nothing is ever going to be handed to you perfectly. Christ only if your rich... and even then, im sure you got stress. Civ is the same way. Build what ever the hell you want to build. Play how ever you want to play, and quit Killing everyone elses way of doing it. And know that I Budthepoet will always beat all of you. Hehe Jk, but thought it was a nice twist. Gary, I see and understand your side, i also see everyone elses. Play on, play on. We should all be friends anyways, Civ is about to be taken over by young kids who are in there 20's all smoking dope and ****king whor-es. Hehe, or has it already? Hehe.... The thoughts of BudThepoet. Hehe.... Play on my fellow Civ players!!! Oh, and anyone who can get to Michigan, were throwing a civ 2 party hehe... All of us, at a house... what fun, cooking.... What is going to be left? Hehe or are we all plotting the slow demise of the michigan gov, and a slow take over of the usa, and then the world? Ahh the plot thickens.... Stay tuned for more Im sure.
Bud.

Sean, Dont even dare... We can go round and round all day. I dont give a damn what i sound Like, dont you get that? I am BudThepoet, I dont care. I am Bud, man.... I am who i Am, and i dont get off on rather or not i sound inteligent to you or not, it is simply your retort to my comments. And if you shall assume such comments as a sign of intelegence, my.... THe wolrd you shall be shown. Besides sean, the light needs to be shifted, Gary is taking to much of the spotlight, in the fight with you. You and I shall go back to hatting one another yes, yes... perhaps? My post none the less, originally had something to do with the topic, your responce telling me I sound like a ****ing idiot.... How inteligent is that? Give it a rest Sean, Who is it your trying to impress? Of course i know your inteligent, so does everyone else. But im at least able to respect it. Give the show a rest man.... And do us all a favor, show some humanism once in a while. Not this superior God like Dogmatic judgenment you place upon the whole world of people that should be if anything your friends. Its a game for god sakes, and its a foolish place to make comments about a game. Get off the high horse, Sean.

Why must you make this some sort of life growing experience? Give me a ****ing break. Go on prozac or something because you're too damn emotional.

HAHAHA!! What an idiot. He preaches about how this is just a game when he sits there and talks about life and its meaning on a forum. Serious mental problems there.

Well, eyes, what a stupid statement you made. Obviously , the understanding of investment principles are far beyond your comprehension. For your sake, I sure hope you have a money manager so my tax dollars wont go to support you when you blow all your money.
The only thing that matters in Civ, is how many units or caravans or city improvements you produce in a turn. If you are not trading in a caravan, where you get 250 gold later in the game, assuming a fair start and fair land, then you will simply not have the assests to keep up with a traders production.
The Math:
250 payoff from a caravan... cost of the van is 30 resources or 75 gold. Thus you profit 175 gold or 90 resources and that city produces something every 2 turns. Spend an additional 50, assuming no gunpowder or feudalism, then it produces something every turn.
Now, to show your stupidity, how do you plan to build all thoose crusaders and ironclads in a quanity greater then a trader?
Obviously, you cant. If you were playing with yourself (with your pants zipped up) and one civ in a hot seat game, traded and one did not, assuming exact same skill level of the player, then the trader will always win a fair start.
END OF STORY.....

Maybe, it is you "who is blaming his tool" and choose to play 1 x 1 deity cause you suck on a real game like 2 x 2 king. I am so sick and tired of hearing how much more difficult 1 x 1 deity is. Simply, it is so much easier then 2 x 2 king because the possible problems that might arise are extremely limited and for the most part confined to just predetermined computer restrictions.
Some of the things you dont have to worry about in 1 x 1 deity are:
1) units moving 4 spaces (non-road or river)
2) large numbers of units falling upon your citys
3) human cleaverness on a strategic scale
