Cool forum concept.
The comparation part is definately a needed one. I've always thought it was strange to do comparations in the Community forum.

I'm looking forward towards a lot of interesting Civ3 vs. CtP2 vs. SMAC vs. EU2 vs. MoO3 discussions ...

From what I've seen about RoN it is not really that comparable with the games above.

Exxxcelent Idea! Discussing the future of civ-type games is one of my Favorite topics.
As was said above, two new forums on great topics in one week, you guys are really outdoing yourselves.

Nice
And Markos, while you're busy adding all these new forums and CivGroups anyway, you might as well add a History forum

Whoa fast work!
But how many forums do we have now? a dozen, two dozen......... three dozen.........four? The dutch (.NL) section of USENET has about that number of discussion groups*! 
* Okay, I tell a lie, it's around 190. But Apolyton does have a lot of forums to choose from.

Thanks for this new fora!
TKG,
only in your dreams will you get to abuse this fora for ranting and whining like ol' Coracle about Civ III.

Ehrm, that´s forum fora is plural. As in one forum, many fora.
Yes, I am a spelling fascist. It goes with the territory I suppose, being a journalist and all...

Neither do I, but KX seems to be so sensitive about this spelling thing...
anyway, forums or fora is better. Can you picture yourself posting in the off-topic giant beetle tentacle?
