Government settings?

In civ2 there weren't really too many good reasons to be any governement other than democracy until you got all the tech then it was fundamentalism (assuming you wanted to fight) or communism until you got all the tech. Unless MM could make the different government choices lucrative and actualy varied i don't think there would be a great difference in how people played and it woudl be just another thing to think about that owuldn't really affect the game play. Good idea though IMHO i don't htink it would work.

OT:

CivIII, no fundamentalism, very slow... it's the slow that really gets to me, but I do miss my fanatics.

It's like they didn't even bother to optimize the code. There's much to be said for SE IV, where no file is larger than the intro bitmap.

I've played lots of games of Civ2 where I never needed to leave Monarchy before Communism was available. I've hardly ever used Democracy, and used Republic less than Monarchy. I don't think I've ever used the Fundamentalism government.
