this is probably the one game in the world which really really doesn't need some crappy 3D graphics.

Seriously... This is going the way the Populous series went when Populous 3 came, which, instead of having some huge environment where you killed litteraly thousand of people, you were left with a tiny world with twenty or so people.... Because the graphics couldn't handly any more.
Yeah! That really scored well with the fance.

Please don't!

I've never been a big fan of the previous Civilization series. Each turn took too long and things seemed to get tedious, especially during a war when you'd want to quickly move a lot of units. That just didn't happen with the turn length. Games took forever. Over four players took forever-and-a-half.

While I don't expect the 20-minute style of a Warcraft III match, I'll be interested to see how this new shorter style works out in Civ 4. It might just be the thing I need to get into the series.
