When it comes to cohorts, I've only found two. Both of which requires you to finish them before you can recruit the cohort. Finch and Septimund.

I think I may have anger management problems. I got the wrong dressing for my pizza today, so I drove back to the resturant and threw the pizza at them. I hate stupid people. [e digicons]:rolleyes:[/e]

I in no way agree with simply replacing everything with turns - the seasonal year system needs to be in place, to give an idea of temporal flow, so that you know when "when" is, or was.

Don't bother with the search function. I haven't tried it in a while, but it doesn't appear to work. I remember some other thread where the issue of Civics were discussed, but I don't think it was a dedicated thread. For what it's worth, I'd love to have a SMAC/Civ4 system, but obviously a lot more biased and without the whip of political correctness. I loved how Fascism actually was a viable system of governance in Civ3 instead of the "That's not democracy, boo! -40 Happiness!"</
