This sounds promising.

Good work Firaxis and joseph

[Oerdin]

So far it sounds really promising but I will have to actually sit down and fiddle with it a bit before I can give it my official seal of approval. I am concerned how all of this will work once the Multiplayer version FINALLY arrives.

This is wonderful. It does make me wonder, though. Firaxis spends three years balancing the game, and here I come changing everything...

They spent three years making the game. They only spent two months* balancing it.

*Please note that this is a gross exaggeration based on the date on which the game entered beta stage to the time the game went gold. I'm sure that play balancing activities occurred prior to the game entering beta test.

I personally am happy with the editor.

[Roman]

The editor looks even better than I expected.
