Oh, right. I did want to ask one thing: what if the rules files for FreeCiv were completely replaced, as well as removing the vestigial things like "shields" in the code? Think it would be OK? I don't know, but I think the current FreeCiv people are *trying* to do the right thing and just don't know the rules. They made quite an effort to get rid of copyright-violating images (without being threatened or anything). Also, the standard rules file is now neither the Civ I clone nor the Civ II clone (although it has similarities to both), and they seem quite willing to change it for game balance (since they don't seem to feel that they've achieved game balance); they're also encouraging people to make entirely new rules files. -- This space intentionally left blank. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
