Also, the company that produced Civ III ( Firaxis ) had imported some very good ideas in their previous game, Alfa Centauri, and they didn't put them in Civ III. And as i said above, that is not the only problem of the game. I'd really like to play those games again but I lost/damaged my old CDs :-( Call to Power has slightly better graphics than Test of Time and features improved combat and trade/piracy system and also has great scenarios with special events when you conquer certain cities or explore certain areas. Fantasy version is great because it also has some minor quests, like freeing the princess from the dragon, and instead of building a spaceship you are building a giant siege engine to destroy the "evil guy".
Test of Time is graphically improved Civ2 but also features Fantasy and SF games in which you can lead different fantasy and SF civilizations, each with their own unique units and buildings. If it is not included in the Gold version, does anyone know where it may be found for download?Īlso, does anyone know where Test of Time and Call to Power may be found? For those who don't know, those two games are versions of Civilization that appeared just after Microprose went bankrupt(or whatever happened to them). Sorry for my big message, i just expected more from a game with the title "civilization III" and i got a bit dissapointed :)ĭoes this Gold version of Civilization 2 include the Scenarios expansion? There are some great scenarios at but the best of them require the expansion. For instance, it isn't logical, a whole continent to do not have iron, or coal at all :P In real earth at least those things can be found everywhere. Like the resource system, but even that sometimes turns to be very annoying. I don't say that i don't like Civ3, its still a great game, it adds some features to the game that are very good. Where is the scenario editor? When Civ3 came out there was nowhere, and it has been added with patches ( something that shows that the game was not still completed at the time of its debut ).
And there are other things that are not good. Also, combat damage does not affect attack strength, something that is very wrong, to my opinion. ( or if it is almost destroyed, and gets attacked from a cavalry, it can lose the battle also ). In Civ3 They have raised the attack and defence values of modern units ( i believe ), but sometimes a modern tank can lose a battle against a hoplite, or a pikeman. In Civ2 with the "firepower" factor that was impossible. The biggest problem of the compat system of Civ 1 was the fact that even a battleship could lose a battle against a pikeman or a militia.
