I've played all 3 civs. I like the idea of culture in this one. I always try to build temples first.

Naw, culture is the wussy way, what you have to do is put all of your funding into science, and get democracy as soon as possible. That way, you'll be rolling around in tanks while the other civs are still running around wearing animal skins. Note that this is a lot easier to do with an archipelego land formation.

I though about buying civ3, but I really don't know if it's worth the money.
Does it so much better thanb civ2?

Civ3 rules, only it drains my system resources like a vacuum cleaner. Civ2 is good, but Civ3 is better in nearly every catagory, save combat. I like the graphics, the culture, the trading system, plus the new options for air attack.

I haven't played Civ3. But I'm planning on trying to get a demo or buy the game. Looks interesting.

well i really liked the overall concept of the game. I have like no reflexes so this game is easier for me than Unreal.

When i first start out i always build 1/2 warriors
then walls then a settler AND then a wonder(pyramids prefable)

i will look into getting screen shots...

Nah, wonders are a MAJOR waste of resources, so is having an army. You want juuuuuust enough soldiers to dissuade your oppenents from attacking, then, you dump everything into science or production. In fact, the scientific/productive culture is the best choice in the game.

I don't build wonders until the second age. It takes too many resources and time to build them so early. I'd rather have libraries, etc. instead. The only problem with this method is that he gets a culture boost when the wonders get build and I only have temples and such.
