Maybe I'm an idiot, but . . .
What the heck does "MGE" stand for???? 
I see it all over the place (usually as a "required to play" item on scenarios), but I can't find anything that it could stand for.
I mean ToT stands for "Test of Time" (I'm pretty sure, at least) and FW would stand for Fantasy Worlds. But the only thing I find close to MGE would be the Gold Multi-player Edition (but the letters are turned around). And if this is true, then it appears I'll be left out of quite a few scenarios as I don't own the multi-player game and had no need to purchase it as I play against the AI only (yea, I have no friends to play with - how sad!).
So, could someone please straighten me out here? Thanx!

Multiplayer Gold Edition.Thats what the North American version of civ2 multiplayer is called.
btw-with Cedric Green's FW update,you can make your 2.42 into FW and enjoy most of the good scenarios.
or with MGE update you can get the whole smear.
You need a working copy of Civ2 2.42 or those updates do nothing.I'm not supposed to provide a link here but if you are a Civilization Fanatic you can find them pretty easily.

Hydey, familiarity with the lyrics of that song not only dates you (us both), but is a strong indication that you are in need of therapy...

As had I. At least that band (Men at Work?) was a flash in the pan and we were not subjected to album after album from them, ala many of the current no-talent hacks.

Yeah, Ratt is, too - at casinos and bingo halls. Beats pumping gas, I suppose.
