CTP is not good at all, but we can't justify the $29.99 spent on it if don't say that it's worth it. |

listen, cunegonda, in this best of all possible games, there comes a never-ending joy from tinkering and embellishing that your bloat-cephala seems too wearish to encompass...there is little connexion between the 'goodness' of a thing and a desire to enhance a situation or condition...CTP, good or 'bad', evidently a host of gamers find satisfaction in playing it, fixing it and adorning it.your brittle matchsticks will lead to little more than your own burnt fingers, and follow-on missives like this, attmepting to stanch the drivel that is forever oozing from your part of creation :-p game on, hobbled steed, enjoy the rider's whip and spurs. |

If horses are so great, why do so many of them need to be fixed? |

Mark, the mods for other games here are enhancements. The mods for CTP are to try to fix the wretched game.

Having given CTP with the mod-packs 4 tries, i have decided not to try again, until someone hacks up something that creates a city-screen.I`m going to be waiting for a long time  |

Someone who is smart enough to figure out how to work a computer without a mouse, AH. I guess you must have a Mac 'cause you can't figure out how to use a real computer? Of course if you had any real brains you'd be able to say more than one thing. |

For one thing, the time interval between mods and the original program. There doesn't seem to be any comparison on this basis between Civ II and CTP. I'm with those reviewers who said CTP should not have been (rush-)launched at the time it was, needing almost an immediate patch (fix) that it did!

actually, that mainly has to do with the easiness of modification. the first ctp mods were additions or changes of the civs(something easy to be done) |

Mark, did you get my email a couple of weeks ago? The med mod 4 is going to be ready before you get 3.0 posted if you don't hurry up. |

Yes, Markos, the same goes for me. I sent in my files two or three days after Wes did and didn't hear anything since. I know you're a busy man, but still...BTW Wes, good threadjacking job |
