It always bothered me that you can have SDI 2 weeks after Manhattan project, way before Stealth. So I changed two things. Laser gives Stealth and Superconductor gives SDI, opposite to the original game. I thought that made more sense.

I also use the hovercraft (blueprint for it is included in the readme file).

Any more ideas on the little things that need tweaking?

That was a fun game. But now it seems time to move on.

Also I sometimes double the road movement multiplyer.
Once I doubled the movement of all units.
(a tank taking 5 years to move from germany to france? no wonder WWII was so long... )

Once I gave each tile one extra shield. that was nice with cities producing up to 90 and some even over a hundred shields per turn.

I made rifle man obsolete once by marines once by alpine troops whom I always leave in cities in moder times, and once by Mech Inf.

I made Leonardo's workshop last forever (oh, so unfair! but the computer nations always have zillions of tanks the same turn they've discovered them. I wonder how? )

I raised the city size when aqua\sewer is needed.

I changed nations' characteristics.

I changed nations' colors so I could play with germans and french and greeks and english and russians and romans at the same time.

I changed names of attitudes and labels of power (ie "Mighty, Pityfull" to 1st 2nd) and labels of how trust worthy you are so I could understand it better. When in war I may forget words in english that no one ever uses.

I changed the rows in food box and shield box without knowing what tihs does (oh my).

I changed how much settlers eat and how much citizens eat.

I changed mass/thrust paradigm, fundamentalism science rate, time for engineer to transform terrain, fundamentalism support rates.

I changed paradrop distance to 20 (that was fun).

I changed labels of the game to include me as the owner of the game and the head of development team.

In civ 1, I completely rewrote the creation storry making it humoristic memmos.

But now I play with civ 2.42 with only the labels for power and trust changed. That is as far as I remember but I have a feeling that there are tweakings I made and forgot to undo .

I also changed the road multiplier to 4.

2. Did I mention I gave nukes a range of 35... makes them intercontinental and more devastating.

3. Oh, how I remember changing the opening titles in Civ1. I forgot about that. I remember my friends when I started it up... hehe
