I have no idea where I can find CtP2. I'm not even sure it was distributed in France.
Too bad we have to own a copy of the game fr the source to work

I liked CTP2 much better then CTP. The multiplayer mode, true unit stack, group combat, and improved diplomacy, were all way better then Civ2 and in some ways better then Civ3. Activision starved the game of development funds though so it came out in the form of a beta and then Activision stopped supporting it a week later.

Only in that they used the original English spelling of the word rather than the bastardised American spelling that made it onto the cover by virtue of being an American game...
Kudos to Poly BTW

Deathtongue fits the avatar better, if I go back to the catbox avatar, I probably will change to Bill the Cat.
ACK!
