The Interface .
Is okay but far from good so here is my major grieves.

#1 Unit/city hotkeys.

Why oh why can't you hotkey units/cities/terrain areas ???

- This is not an advanced feature but more of the standard in both TBS and RTS games today, why Civ3 doesn't have it is beyond me. (or did I skip that part of the manual?)

The unit info box should list ALL the units in a given tile.
I hate having to redundantly rightclick in order to get the full unit listing....

Damn skippy
They have a very poor interface for a game that needs so much information. I also find the "Click over and over to get information that ought to be on the damn screen". The problem is they wanted to keep the information interface at a minimum, probably thanks to some stupid as$ meeting where they wanted a new paradigm in gaming medium where a complex game is simple. Screw that, gimme the information in a big ass information bar.
