Do you play RoN single or multi player?
Since RoN has a really good AI, it seems many people play more single player then multi-player? I guess this poll may give us an idea.

I play mutli mostly, but Huge map, slow & expensive diplo games vs AI are quite fun. The campaign is great too, though I havent finished it.

Multiplayer only (2 player LAN). Huge map, very expensive slow with Nukes tweaked off.

One of the great things is you only need one CD unlike so many other games where you have to buy the game twice (its a pet hate - particularly if you only get a subset of the single player game)

SP and MP (LAN with a friends against the AI).

Well, we stopped playing for some time now, but I hope the expansion will catch our interest again

SP only... I don't like playing online (And not with this internet connection either), and I don't know anyone offline who likes strategy type games (RTS or TBS)

Hello Again,

Another question. What is up with the cheat for a wild bird?????? Not home to try it, what does it do? Also, if I play against the cpu, lets say, me and 3-4 computer players, are they all against me,or allies? How do I make them an ally??? Any tips and hints would be greatly apreciated!

Also, I love the bombers and fighter and the nukes are great! Are there any drawbacks to using the nukes, and will the computer use theirs? Played my first game last night and the computer had a nuke before me, but never used it!? Even after I sent them 2!!! ???

Single, and I like games where we have to fight it out for a "cultural" victory... like I'll play the Nubians vs. the Egyptians in a Wonder score victory, or something.

mostly multiplayer
Those single player games used to be fun, but not anymore that it is too easy for me
but if i´m practising a strategy or training for a tourney, I play some single 1v1 with a comp
