Interesting article at i09 on how researchers use the game 'Civilization' to test computer intelligence and adaptability. It seems that it really helps to actually read the manual or something. Will have to try that in the future.
Geek that I am, I'd like to see a breakdown of different ways that they won (i.e. Military, Cultural, Science) and if that percentage changed over time.

I seem to recall that this is the game where a Peasant Militia unit has a 1 in 33 chance of destroying a Battleship.
Maybe that was fixed at some point in a patch or something, but still.
Andrew, that was true in the original. They've fixed that (I think) about four versions ago. If you haven't tried one of the newer ones you should.
