Of course!
Depends on which expansions you have / or not have, MP would play a bit
different.

If you're just getting good against AIs, then you're not ready yet. AIs are
pretty weak against the true Civ3 masters. See
forums.civfanatics.com, the various Civ3 sub-forums. People there beat the
highest difficulty level long time ago... and they're imposing various
restrictions on themselves while playing (e.g. always war, one city
challenge).

Visit www.civfantics.com... play some games (succession/game of the month)
there... you'll find a lot of worthy opponents there.

I'm not advertising... I'm just a normal member of the site. But I can tell
you it's THE site to frequently visit, if you like the Civilization series.

I noticed many of the games when I went were set up for regent level. I was
hoping for a friendly game too but it seemed like everyone took things
pretty seriously.

Yeah I guess I could try it that way. I was dragged to the online game by
someone from IRC but when I feel up to trying it again I might do it that
way. Thanks.

I have not tried PBEM but have wanted to.
