My best memories of playing Civilization III?

My only memory of Civ3 was me going “ehhhh, this is too complicated” and going back to Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri!

Now Civ II, that was the game! …but I didn’t play it that much after I got SMAC.

…I’ve been slowly trying to learn Civilization VI, only because Turtles are apparently a Thing! 😄🐢 Didn’t buy Civilization VII because Turtles Weren’t A Thing ☹️.
