Default CIV4 - is it here?

Hi everybody!

I recently started to play CIV4 and wonder if I have come to the right
group? I see some CIV4 comments in here but the title of the group could
have fooled me... If you know a group specifically made for CIV4, pls let me
know - if not I'll see you around. Thx:-)

Helle, DK

This group seems to have adopted civ IV as well.

It's the right group. Usenet group creation works at snail speed.

Anyway, having a newsgroup for every new version of Civ seems a bit of
overkill to me. Why not have an alt.fans.civilization group for all the civ
versions, from number I onwards?

Not entirely true. If there were interest in making a new group,
it'd probably go very fast. I'd be willing to help speed things along for
a Civ IV group... or general-purpose Civilization.

When was the last time anyone here played the original though? Must be 5
years since I even played Civ2!

I still play Colonization occasionally, though.

Still play it occasionally. In some ways it has very satisfying game
play; I like the way you can modify unit qualities so easily, and
conduct lightning-fast campaigns, impossible in Civ 4.

Tried to do this but can't get it to work using WinXP and a DOS Box.
Any suggestions gratefully received.

I can't find any group by that name.

A general-purpose Civilization newsgroup(including Colonization, which I
still play at times after all these years) would be nice. Go for it!
