Woo! We have four civ friends! That's enough for a small map, if we don't want those nasty AI stinking up our game. :3

I might have better micromanagement, but I still really suck at some things, like war. You're right though, that multiplayer is fantastic for double-crossing without getting nasty diplomatic penalties that screw you over for the whole game. Grrrr. AI diplomacy sucks.
