	Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Oops, forgot to mention that CivCity, a utility to which I'm addicted, chokes on long comments at the end of unit entries. Too bad, since that's a great place to list slot-specific properties, etc.

	Suffering from ads?

What's CivCity do and where can I get it?

	Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

It allows you to edit properties of cities you placed on the map (e.g. ownership, trade routes, city improvements and special properties).
You can find it at Gothmog's place:

(or my utility website, see sig)

Scenario design requires CivTweak and CivCity. MapEdit and MapUtil are nice in map design.

Yup, that more or less is what I'm looking for! Now, why is Gunpower an EVIL TECH?

I'll let someone wiser explain the evils of Gunpowder, but if you haven't already, take a look at Using your units by Mike Daumen. It speaks of the evils of Musketeers, Knights, and AI build preferences. I think the author's reliable.

My question is, why is Advanced Flight struck out with an "airbases" note? I thought radio did that.

Another question... what do the I, S, B, C in the wonders text strings mean?

If you know, tell me, because I can't remember. Probably something scenario-specific.
