Is firaxis not supposed to give their own country a special unit like they did for every other civilization? Would it be better if they made everything biased against the americans? There is no proof that the unit lasts forever. Anyway, the game ends before 2347 whether anyone blasts off or whatever or not.

And what would make people inclined to break the law just because the united states had a plane with plus 1 attack or whatever? If you're looking for an excuse not to pay for civ, I guess you'll come up with anything. If you think that you're being cheated by a plane, don't buy the game. It's not an excuse to steal.

By the way, what special unit did you expect them to have? The time that the golden ages come into effect is based on when it actually happened. The americans, believe it or not, weren't in their prime in 1100 B.C.

What cheating bonus? We don't even know the unit stats yet. You can't complain about cheating without information to prove it. Besides, the US having the golden age causing so late is a drawback and weakness as the other Civs get growth bonuses during the crucial expansion phases. Stop whining about something that no one knows the truth about.

Shiva, I think you have successfully and irrefutably proven your point.

I also think you have successfully proven DonJoel to be an idiot.

Ergo, please see my signature line, as it will demonstrate why you might want to discontinue arguing with him (though so far, it isn't true).




Cheers.
