I Found My Civ II poster Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

On buying Civ II and looking at the enclosed advance chart, I recognized it immediately as something pretty cool to have as reference, maybe even as a keepsake.
So, with the intent of putting into a poster frame, or having laminated somehow, I put it away; and promptly lost it.

Years later, following numerous packings and unpackings, I found it this morning!
Still looks brand new. Why wouldn't it?

You won't care much I suppose, but I was happy.

Oh man, Wiz. I am SO sorry. Maybe they will resurface.
Apparently Civ posters are like socks.

I have two copies of the poster... but I wouldn't call them a mona lisa

If I ever get too drunk or spaced while playing, the civopedia (or whatever) that is part of the game can always answer my question, so the posters are really kinda of worthless.

But heck... go ahead and frame it... hang it with honor in your home... and get strange looks when your friends come over

I guess they're not included in the budget releases, shame...

Apart from the original They also came with FW, CiC and Test of Time. Although the one in ToT differed in a bit appearance and layout to include the extra scenarios.

Contact him via PM... Who knows, if you send him your address, he might just send it to you. But I wouldn't recommend posting your address here. Granted, it's probably better to do it here than the OTF, but I still wouldn't recommend it

I'm sure most of us would have at least 2 after having to buy the game a second time for multiplaying .

If he could post what the good cause is we might be more forthcoming
