One of the other fan sites dear to us, AlphaCentauri2.info, had been offline for a month, due to technical difficulties. It seems that the admin BustersUncle has been able to restore everything necessary, and the site is back online. So if you feel like posting a bit about Alpha Centauri, then head over there, AlphaCentauri2.info, and leave your thoughts in a thread.
In case other issues appear, then check the AC2 status thread here.

Since a few days the new “Game Of The Month” for Civ4 is again available. This time you have to play as Louis XIV of France on a tropical standard size Custom Continents map on Prince level.

For all the details please check this thread, and submit your game at latest June 30.
