Civilization 3 Hints
Civilization 3 Hints & Strategy Strategy Submitted By : James " I just recently learned about a horseman having a "zone of control".But, I have learned from experience (get my butt kicked) that the best thing to do is find the enemy as soon as you can.Then position troops as to build a wall of troops, creating a border.The enemy will turn away from this wall.You can even manuever troops to drive the enemy out of an area or trap them into an area.So they will not bother you again." Strategy Submitted By : Josh "well i got this cheat from the internet and its good trust me ok wen u start a game save it and the save file name should be the word multi and then reload it again then itl show the full map and all the resources." Hints 1. Always Negotiage For Peace! If you have a powerful army or an army of equal size, always negotiate for peace, this is one of the best ways you can earn money or even get technology from rival sites without putting any of your stuff for trade.This method best works at the beginning of the game with a powerful army. Rival civs may be willing to trade even technology to keep peace with you.Also always negotiate for peace treaty every time! That is every 20 years! Remember every gold counts, so bargain as much as you can. 2. Misuse Right Of Passage!This is one of my favorite! Enter into a Right Of Passage with a Rival Civ and then postition all of your units nearby their cities to attack. One of the best possible options is wait till the end of The right of passage and then break cause you might have a bad impression with other civs and they might refrain from signing a Right Of Passage with you in future! Also When You are signing for Right Of Passage Try To get as much as hard cash as you can rather than getting gold every turn if you are intending to attack rival civ. This way you will minimize your losses. 3. Make Easy money! This is one of the cheats I found on the internet but did not have much success with it!All you do is Build a small city in the middle of your most highest cultured or metropolis cites, Then offer this city to your rival civs and they with probably pay a lot of money or refuse as in my case. After a period of time The city will rebel and then join your civilization! This is cheap and easy money!Personally I had no fun with it!! and takes the fun from your game! 4. Quick Cash When You Start the game you notice that your scientific research is at 50%.Lower Your scientific research till just before it shows --nil or no scientific research!Use this tactic just in beginning for a while like till you are satisfied you have enough money after that increase you should increase your scientific output!! 5. Quick Cash || Well another way of making easy money!When Your scientific research remains just 1 one turn to complete, press F1 and lower your scientific research as much as possible, this way you will make some easy money!But remember immeadiate after the scientific research is complete you must move it back to its original place or chances are you will be falling back in your scientific advancement! Strategy Always have Mutual Protection Pact! I don't know if people do it or not!but in my view always have mutual protection pact with atleast one rival civ!This is just an insurance for yourself, so that if some other rival attacks you, you can atleast have some back up!Even if the other civ fights for you or not! Have Mutual Protection Pact With Your Neighbors Also always try to have mutual protection pact not with the biggest or riches civ in your game who is on the other side of the world but with one of your neighbors!Chances are if a rival civ attacks you he is going to be forced to encounter your neighbors units! Be Picky: Religous Or Commercial! When your playing civ, always try to be picky!In my view one of the best options is to go with a civ that has either a Religious or Commercial Specific Abilities cuz with them you can easily change a government in the next turn or have corruption within limits! Personal Opinion About Civs and who would I pick up! In my view one of the best civs you should play would be: For WarMongers Germany If you attain your full potential during Industrial ages, Germany is your choice.With Germany you get Panzer tanks as you unique Unit!And this unit is one impressive war machine, if you are a warmonger and like domination or conquest victory, this is your perfect choice as they are militaristic and have a deadly Unique unit that can crush you enemies rather very quickly!
