Everyone:It seems like I remember a game or two where the AI actually defeated me. But since I had the game set to restart defeated civilizations, I ended up starting again elsewhere. Is this possible? Or am I merely dreaming of the phoenix? CYBERAmazon |

I think you must be suffering from hallucinations... I'd recommend you start getting more sleep and stay away from the mushrooms growing in your backyard....Seriously though, I always have restart civs on and have lost several games in the early stages. I generally 'cheat' by not building much in the way of defense (just enough to maintain order and sometimes I'll even use an elvi or two first...) until my civ has a good start going. The ai has snuck in from the opposite direction I started exploring in and wiped me out before I really got going. Anyway, anytime I've ever died, the only thing I get is that darn waste of a movie telling me I'm dead! |

Once in a hotseat multiplayer game played on a very large version of the world map, I started as the Americans and the Aztecs destroyed my city before it could build the first unit!
Anyway, the point is that I was restarted as the Persians, so it does work at least in hotseat mode. |

Everyone:No way man! If anything's clouding my judgement, it's too much caffeine  . I swear, though, that I have automatically been restarted after being conquered. It was really early in the game (before AD) and it was a large Earth map (customized to my liking). I had seven civilizations selected and civ restart option was toggled. I believe I was playing as the French, got beat, and then restarted elsewhere as the Vikings. Ha! Roman's story backs up my theory a bit! So I can't be hallucinating everything  . CYBERAmazon |
