SCENARIO CONTEST
(Nov.28) Forums are a wonderfull thing after all. From our Community Forum
was born the Creation Contest. A contest for scenario creators, that is :)
The subject is 19th century African colonisation. For more info see this
page, and drop by the Community Forum.

MGE IN A WEEK?
(Nov.27) The wait for the multiplayer version of civ2 continues. EbWorld's
date has slipped from December 1st to 2nd and then to 4th in the last
days. The listing on Mediascape.ca also says December 4th. Meanwhile,
Gamespot's upcoming list from November 27th to December 4th doesn't
include MGE. I don't think we will wait much longer... Our thanks to Joel
Siragher and Rhett Strautins for informing us.

MARK LAMIA INTERVIEW (Nov. 23)
We're happy to post another interview of a member of the CTP development
team. This time, Mark Lamia, the producer of CTP.

CTP, (OOOPS!) CIV2 FOR PLAYSTATION (Nov. 22-23)
Activision has announced it's plans for a version of C:CTP for the
Playstation console. The Playstation version will have the same features
as the PC one, and is expected at about the same time, early '99.
(Nov.23) Lt John corrected me. Activision is doing a playstation port of
the original Civ2 not CTP! This was part of last summer's
Activision-Microprose deal.

*Site Changes
