You can put labels on the maps. Zoom up to the globe, the icons above the minimap will change. One on the left above the minimap will let you draw lines on the map and put labels down. I use it in multiplayer games to tell my allies how they suck, in 100 mile high letters on their landscape.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

I'd like a foul little bog.

You'd have to change your name to Fetid Mire of Mustard.

Dude, that article was great.  It made me want to go and buy Civ4...and...WASTE OODLES OF TIME!

But I won't.  I have to finish my memoirs.

After staying up way too late last time, I've decided that I need to hide my copy of Civ 4 if I intend to get anything done with my life at all. If you want me to hide it at your house, Skar, that can be arranged.

Ghaaaar!

You don't want me to finish my memoir, do you?

Thanks for the offer but I'll... *Skar beats his left hand off the keyboard with a ruler* pass.

You'll be pleased to know that in last night's game, the tiny town of Skarsdale grew into an enormous center of government, and managed to absorb two enemy cities by pure strength of culture. It was even home to the UN. It was but a pale shadow, however, of Entropy Lake, which was sort of like Jerusalem and New York and Tokyo and Los Angeles all rolled into one. Not even Fellsville could compete with that.

The town of Jeffestia was small but important, and probably full of mutants, because it was a uranium mine.
