Links For New Players and who knows maybe some old

[agntsmith]

Some of the posts here and in lobby indicate that many new players do not know the wealth of information out there for CIV III / Conquests players.

To help new players I've listed some of the more popular links to Conquests or Civilization discussions and support. I've stumbled upon these sites over many years of playing CIV but it's never complete. If anyone has additional links please list.

Note: This post is not intended for advertising competing ladder/league sites. It is intended to share sites that offer information on and provide help for Conquest players. Apolyton and Civfanatics contain many and I mean many mods, scenarios and unique unit types. Remember that the majority are not for Multiplay so if you start downloading you should likely backup your current CIV3 and Conquests folders.

Apolyton - the grand daddy of the civilization community

Civilization Fanatics - just as old with a similar list of devout civilization fans. Lots of mods and new scenarios.

CDG's Civilization III - another useful forum
cdgroup.org/forums/tbs/civ3/

Sid Meier's Civilization III - the Official site
www.civ3.com/

Sid Meier's Civilization III Support - my preferred place to download patches especially if you are looking for the European versions
www.civ3.com/support.cfm

Atari Technical Support For Conquests
www.atari.com/us/support/newfaq/civilizationiiiconquests.php?browser=1&osType=WINXP&pageDisplay=MAIN
- this is another site for support and information. The whole Infogrames, Atari, Firaxis, Sid Meier's coownership of CIVIII and Conquests is confusing. I always go to Sid Meiers CIV III site first for support and reference the others if needed.

Sid Meier's Civilization III - the community - this is a comprehensive list of many civ3 related fansites

Very Nice list, WarningU2.

At Civ3Fanatics, I came across a very nice 17 page reference book for C3C with lots of juicy tidbits including a very comprehensive list of keyboard shortcut commands ...
