I won't even begin to address the vast number of assumptions in that last post

anyone going to early warfare in civ is going to fall behind those whom do not.....unless he is taking their cities....

war costs even more on larger maps where your just tossing sets out...its another reason why we play raging....keeps players honest...

Yeah, early war on large maps will cost you more. And the time involved makes it worse. By the time the forces can reach their target, they may already be obsolete. One reason I like small maps, we don't have to play 2x movement to encourage wars.

Yep, then they just want to start again, and you know you'll get a crappier start.

Yeah, in one game I got a nomad from my second hut, but delayed building a city with it till the top 5 citieswas filled so no one would see I got it and start whining about a restart.

I am not the worst offender by any means. And I really did need that nap. Or passing out if you prefer.
