	Bad news for RCP fans Increase the size of your Attachments

There is bad news for users of the ring city placement scheme: Firaxis bods have confirmed that it has been eliminated in Consquests.

Duh, can someone tell me how RCP works?

Really, I don't have time to search.

Good, I didn't like using it, but saw no choice when facing it in PBEM.

Arrian celebrating, because now you can go back to OCP?

Not OCP, I don't do that much anymore. 4-4.5 tile, not 5.

But I definitely don't like RCP.

Bad news for RCP fans...is good news for everyone else (that plays Civ3).

Glad to see they're closing off these exploits.

aww... I liked rings. I think I'll do rings maybe anyways...

It seems much more organized than other CPstrats...

Actually I'm glad it's going too, since it isn't the way things were meant to work. I'll have to re-write more of the early game guide though...

Yeehaw, that RCP stuff was taking all the fun out of choosing your city locations.

Since I never used it (always thought it was an exploit), I won't mis it.

I only just started using it, so I suppose I won't miss it too much.

RCP fans?

This is good news for everyone except those who can't do city placement. RCP made things a lot easier.

Whether they can replace it with something that cannot be easily exploited remains to be seen.

Simple version, just build all your cities in equal rings around your palace, and corruption will be reduced. It is a bug / exploit that will be eliminated in conquests (and as a beta tester, I can tell you that if you even remotely like civ3, get your hands on conquests as it will be well worth it). Here is a diagram that IIRC Vulture made.

I never heard this ! How much does the ring reduce the corruption ? All corruption eliminate ?

And How ring city we should build to reduce corruption ?

RIP comparative games between conquests and previous versions...? Anyone know if they are planning on patching it out of Civ 1.29f and PtW 1.27f?

Thanks, I didn't even know one could do that. Oh, well, if it's an exploit, good riddance.

I don't know anything, but they have stated they will not be patching CivIII after 1.29F. My guess is PTW won't get it either. Thus they will sort of guide us to buy C3C.

It seems comparative games would have been dead even if they had applied the RCP fix to previous versions. Conquests seems to have just too many changes in gameplay.
