i was updating our links to amazon for the various games, when i noticed that there is a "jewel case" version of the original civ2(no add-ons) which we dont list

on amazon's page for the game, there is linked title "accessories". what does that give you? two options: the movie "Saving Private Ryan" and the book "100 Military Leaders Who Shaped World History"

amazing combination

How very odd that is! I guess to them Civ-2 is a wargame, but why a piece of fiction?

From an historical point of view paiktis, your not missing much.
