Top 10 Things to Do While Waiting to Buy an MP-version of Civ3
- Finally get around to memorizing the last few pages of the dictionary.
- Test your theory about being able to send mail free by putting a wrong TO address while the FROM address actually is where you want the package sent. Drive back and forth between BOTH addresses just to see the delivery decisions 'in action.'
- Sample the latest Pop Tart flavors...in alphabetical order.
- Sample the latest Pop Tart flavors...in order of calories.
- Finish up that black belt in Brazilian Jiujitsu.
- Fry some eggs and keep saying: "This is your brain on Civ."
- Consider shampooing the rug.
- Actually shampoo it after an unsightly Pop Tart and egg 'experiment.'
- Challenge random pieces of furniture to a WWF title bout...and win because of your black belt in Brazilian Jiujitsu.
- Play Europa Universalis and Commandos 2...Europa to brush up on your diplomacy skills and understanding of delicate political relationships...and Commandos 2 in case MP never arrives and you need to go in yourself and 'Do a little convincing.'

I have Yin26 on ignore so I'm replying to the thread title:
1) Play Civ3 SP as the Romans.
2) Play Civ3 SP as the French.
3) Play Civ3 SP as the Germans.
4) Play Civ3 SP as the Greeks.
5) Play Civ3 SP as the Americans.
6) Play Civ3 SP as the English.
7) Play Civ3 SP as the Chinese.
8) Play Civ3 SP as the Persians.
9) Play Civ3 SP as the Iroquois.
10) Play Civ3 SP as the Aztecs.
These approximations taken from a Civ3 Civilizations poll.
