Alliances that have no advantages. Typically, all they do is start a bunch of units wandering around your territory, impeding your units' movement, and buidling new cities in your plum locations. The AI is so erratic in its pursuit of warfare, you can't count on an AI ally to even keep an enemy busy. |

I Hate it when the AI Reduces Production Rate to 80% of total and almost get a new tech from just one turn of research (when they should be taking 8 turns to finish). This is only because I get TOO FAR AHEAD of the poor AI!!!! |

Its a toss-up between the abusive levels of micromangement necessary to run a decent-sized civ, and the pudding-headed AI. |

Some of the things I hate most:-- The inability to stack units! What a pain and waste of time to have to send each individual unit of a large attacking force one at a time to the staging point! Just having stacked units will make Civ3 worthwhile for me... -- Then when I do send an individual unit to the city on the other side of the bay... only to find it dithering to and fro, ignoring my new railroad, and trying to walk across the water! -- And what about those engineers you put on auto to clean up pollution, make farmland, etc.? They sit forever on polluted tiles doing nothing -- far quicker to send one there manually and press 'p', and that's it, job done. Or you suddenly notice one of them irrigating a useful, shield-producing forest while all around there are un-irrigated plains and grassland!  ... and plenty of other gripes, many of which have already been mentioned above. But despite them all, Civ2 is still the best computer game of the lot! |
