World Map

In Civ2 is there in tech to get the whole map. If not what is the
easiest way of getting info apart from sharing with computer players
(which they don't like to do)

They're perfectly happy to trade. However if their map is more complete
than yours, then they will want you to add money (or other valuables) to the
trade. Similarly if yours is better than theirs, they may pay extra for it.

Beg your pardon. I didn't notice you were asking about Civ2.

IIRC (It's been a long time) in Civ2 it's just a straight trade. I don't
recall any particular difficulty with it, though.

I find that if they want a tech as well as swapping maps I just put
the tech on the table and ask what they are willing to trade for it.
Often I get their territory or world map thrown in to their price.
