Well, I don't actually
have Civ III yet, so I must have mis-remembered. If it's the expansion pack that has the 8 new civilizations that's fine. I'll be buying Civ III soon, and maybe I can buy a package deal with both Civ III and the expansion pack in a single purchase.
Sachmo, you think MOO 3 will suck? I think it'll be 'MOO 2.5' as some have been calling it -- not much of a real change in design or play from past 4X games -- but having what is essentially original MOO (it is more like original MOO than MOO II) with updated art and some new wrinkles to the game is not a bad thing.
