Well I was in the middle of a good game using the UK map and the next time I
loaded it I found that I had accidentally deleted the wrong saves ;=(( so I
think I'll give Double Your Pleasure a go.  A couple of questions though:
Reading the install FAQs one is advised to uninstall Civ ...

Whenever I play against more nations and want to contact them, I can only do
this by choosing an enemy unit. Is it possible to switch to "the second page
of the foreign minister" so that not only a few but all civs are shown?
thanx in advance

I finally got my copy of C3C today!  ( 55 days after having ordered it from
Play.com )
My first question is:  I was looking at the Age of Discovery scenario, is
there any benefit to the European powers to researching the classical

I have the following versions of Civ III:
1. Civ III;
2. Civ III: Play The World;
3. Civ III: Conquests.

What I mean is that when I lie between other civs, they invariably try
to send their swarming hordes over my lands to fight another civ taking
many turns to get there if I permit them to cross my lands. I usually
don't, but they either just ignore their promise to reign in their

The v2.3 patch is ready.
It should be the final update, and takes care of these:
1/ Missing unit folder for Sailor
2/ Industrial era brothel crash

Having watched whole stacks of veteran troops (with some elites) just
melt away into nothing while attempting to capture French cities in
the Middle Ages conquest last night, I am reminded of one of the
Confederate generals who said, "There just ain't no good way to take a

I have played about ten games of vanilla CIv III now, mostly on Monarchy
level with normal terrain settings except I tend to favor less water and
more land. Is it the experience of others that with or without the
advantage of Pyramids (I usually try for this wonder) that the ...

So whose bright idea was the Temple of Zeus?  Civs with Ivory get a
huge advantage, and civs with any of the other seven luxuries can go
piss up a rope.
I played my second vanilla game of Conquests as the Dutch.  As you can

This is my first game of Conquests and I have some flood plains no
where near a river.  I don't recall that happening before in other
versions of Civ.
So far am a little disatisfied with all bugs mentioned.   Little

I've just about finished a tiny map game (played it nonstop in about a day
or so), archipelago, 80% water.  And I'm almost finishing up a huge map
game.  These are my impressions of Conquests.
I like the extra complexity and little touches and tweaks.  It'll keep the

Is there anywhere you can download more artwork for the palace
improvement screen? There is just something so satisfying about
building a regal mansion after you've obliterated  your mortal
enemies!

I am running CIV 3 PTW 1.27f English UK and get an error when I try to run
this mod. The error is missing entry iconbuilding sewer. Any ideas how to
remedy this.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Okay, Apologies first if somebody has posted a proper answer.
But searching google, and others for how to capture a princess, nobody seems
to know how you actually get her to your home city, once you have captured
the city she is in.Everyone presumes you move her to you get the ...

Damn it. I'm in chapter 5 of ffx-2, and I just realized I won't be able
to get "episode complete" in the Calm Lands because I didn't do the
stupid promos until chapter 5. Nor can I do the "marriage proposal" side
quest; the old guy just says "nice weather we're having" :(
