Has anyone ever played with the Rise and Rule mod from http://civ3.bernskov.com/RaR/about.asp ?

A truly EXCELLENT mod! I highly recommend it! Well worth whatever efforts you must go through to get it DLed and running. There is a bit of a learning curve but beyond that it is a delight.

I was minded to compare this site to a sort-of-private Facebook, but, on reflection, that's not right . . . Nope. Here is a forum to exchange views and discuss topics and maybe have some literary fun; post some interesting pics (not Megabits of family krap); flag up some internet sites of Interest; pass on the occasional joke. To me, (struggling for analogy here) it's bit more like a quiet and cosy pub with locals you know and the occasional visitor from "outside"; thick stone walls and a cellar full of well-kept ale. Facebook, on the other hand, is some awful massive city-centre club that serves Fosters lager.   And, you know what? I am not unhappy with that analogy. I prefer the pub.

Didn't take long, only about a 5 minute queue wait. I'll stick it in there and look at it. Thanks, Scipio

Just keep in mind when you start playing it: it is a SUBSTANTIALLY different game. Many MANY aspects of the game are different, so don't rush into it thinking you can use your standard C3C or Civ3 strategies. It is a NEW game 'based on Civ3' that you will have to learn anew.

Also, my recommendation: don't play the Earth map first, try a random map. Also, try to make sure you get a "good" starting location. In this mod, having a city with a tile or two that produces LOTS of food early on is pretty much critical to having a fighting chance.

Noted; thanks for the tip, dude. I've forgotten any C3C strats I had from when I played the game. I've been spoiled by cIV, so I suspect I have a lot of un- and re- learning to do.
