anyone know where i can get the advisor movies for this game?

[laiocfar]

only with original cd. The advisor and herald are pretty dull and slow the game a lot so most of people just turn them off if got cd or rip it when uploading.

its a good thing i got this a year ago from here. I just noticed they took it off the downloading shelves <_<... Thats now some precious cargo i got on my hard drive.

One of the all-time great games. I've spent uncountable hours playing this, the gameplay is almost unrivled, it's remarkable that this game never really got the number of gamers it deserved; but then there are allways more people who value graphics over gameplay.

If it wasn't for Championship Manager 97/98 and 2001/02 then this game would be by far the best game I've ever played. It still rates number 1 though, only just.

I remember I got this back in 97 and played it until well into 2002, I only started to lose interest when the online comunity completely fell apart for Civ 2. Hackers started knocking off all the best scenerio pages, the great sconerio makers (minor celebrities in the world of Civ 2) started to switch to Civ 3, internet games dissapeard etc. etc. and alot of users went to Civ 3.

Unfortuantly Civ 3 was a big let down and I think I spent a sum total of less than 10 hours playing that since I bought it.

Sid's Civ 2 still stands up unbelievably well, if only the online comunity had held up.

I feel lucky in that I never played Civ2 when it came out. I was in high school, and I was too occupied with "flashy" action games and RTS games. Now that I'm older and replaying some old games I missed, I've only recently started playing the Civ games. And I'm amazed. I've sunk so many hours into Civ 2 already, not to mention Alpha Centauri as well. It's amazing, its like no matter how long you play, there's always more to do and NOW is never a good stopping time, its always "in just a few more turns." Good stuff, I look forward to many more nights of going to be ad 3AM.

Um, so yeah, is there any way or something that could be done to have this run in DosBox?

And yes, I'm being serious.

You can't run a windows based game in DOSBox.

Only if you succeed in installing Window through DOSBox (and yes, I'm being serious too).

As Tulac said, it just can't be done. The closest you can get is set up Virtual PC 2004 on your machine and install Windows 9x on it.

Not necessary since this game works 100% okay on WinXP.
