So I caved in and installed freeciv 2.1.3 for OS X. I was a little peeved when it billed itself as a universal binary where it still was calling on X11.

I was hoping for quartz :)

Oh well, playing though as the cdns, so far so good. Its a little clunky but very playable.

I had that, then made the mistake of upgrading. In the newer (beta)
version I couldn't figure out how to get it to display in the
non-isometric map-tile style.  Since I had the DOS version, I just put
it aside.  One of these times -- winter, say -- I'll get back to it,
download a non-beta version and try again.

The possibility of playing with another real player appeals to me but
I've never done that since my game time usually turns out to be
random episodes between midnight and 4:00.

Haven't seen Civ III or IV.  Real Soon Now. :-)
