Choose Carefully

I just turned off the VS, as the gassing seems to have stopped for the time being. Back to C-III.

You can play C-III at your leisure. You can play it for an hour a day or for twelve hours a day. If you have less than an hour a day to play then you should avoid C-III and consult a psychologist. But if you have at least an hour, then I have some recommendations for you: start small. Begin with a small world. I Play C-III as a war game. But C-III can be played in other ways. So when you initially configure the game you need to consider your gut predelictions. Do you like war? Do you like Peace? Can you tolerate both? Are you ready for either? Does your moral system discourage cheating against a silicon opponent? You need to answer those questions before you begin. If your answers are, yes, yes, yes, yes, no, then you need to disable the random number generator in C-III. C-III uses random numbers to create events in your game, and if you want to be able to change those events you need to disable Inexorable History, in favor of 'freedom.'

You can choose many configurations of worlds in C-III. I usually choose a normal world, but I have chosen many possible worlds so far. My advice would be to choose carefully the kind of world you will play in.
