    Choose Romans. Start off with your city producing some sciene beakers and getting alphabet, writing, and literacy... Get to 100 Gold by taking barbarion huts and such and use those settlers to start making smaller cities that produce settlers, send settlers back to one city that has good production and science...

    You'll need to research the tech, "University" and once that is done build a wonder called "Oxford University" which gives you a random advanced tech. If you get "Atomic Theory" then build a wonder called "Manhatten Project" and you'll have your nuke.

    Now you'll want to save some great people to complete what your building right away because the Manhatten Project takes along time to build and you normally cant rush it with little gold...

    Just practice this a couple times and i bet you'll get it atleast once...

    THIS HAD WORKED FOR ME NUMEROUS TIMES AND IT CAN WORK FOR YOU TOO


    PLAY ON CHIEFTEN... I'M GUESSING YOU HAVE THE DEMO SO THAT WAY ITS EASIER TO GET IT

    IF YOU EVER GET A GREAT BUILDER DONT USE HIM... KEEP HIM (by saying I dont know yet when they ask if you want to use him, then you can push X/ Square to keep him defended in the city) YOU WILL NEED HIM LATER

    what i do is i play as the egyptions because they get one food from desert squares (so 1 food 2 sci)...

    start out so you have two production, one growth and 2 science in thebes (remember desert spaces)...research your first tech from the first turn... only research what you need to get to the University tech... I THINK THEY ARE THIS ORDER

    Alphabet
    Pottery
    Writing
    Masnery (sp)
    Literacy
    Mathematics
    Code of Conduct
    Democracy
    University

    To get to this you need to use your first warriers to i take out barbarians til you get another set of warriers... use these warriers to explorre in the other direction... once you get 100 gold and the settlers take them over to the right of thebes (demo map) and make a city right in the middle of all the desert and water... a lot of science... make sure you get libraries in your cities right away... then make a city in between the mountains to the left of thebes in between the trees... by now you should have code of conduct... make trading posts in your first two cities... (i'd advice you not to rush to complete things so you CAN rush the trading posts)... now hopefully you have university...build the oxford university wonder in your production city... when this is done, hope to god you get Manhatten Project... if you dont you can quit and start over cuz you really have no chance... If you do get it then i hope you got a great builder...

    IF YOU DIDNT GET A GREAT BUILDER: build it in your production city... you prolly wont have enough time so hope you got a great builder

    IF YOU DID GET A GREAT BUILDER: build the Manhatten Project wonder in your city with the great builder... use the great builder to complete the wonder..

    Launch at your enemy and enjoy

    Play more than one game.

    There is only one nuke available per game.

    that's correct... the first person to build the Manhatten Project wonder gets the one and only nuke... This makes the nuke just as much of a bargaining tool as a weapon... If someone else has a nuke you dont want them to launch it on you until you build an SDI... So basically you kiss their a** until you get an SDI built

    I keep trying to get a nuke off on someone in the demo's multiplayer but I either miss out on the great builder that I need, or they quit before I can finish it. Just twenty minutes ago or so, I had the guy I was playing with pull up in a couple galleys full of troops, and he went straight for one of my cities. I cancelled my trading post, pumped rushed archers, and completely smoked him. I said "Hey, thanks for the upgrades", and then he quit without saying a word.

    The sad thing is, 5 turns later I had a nuke, and it had his name all over it. Since he quit though, I was forced to nuke an AI city. Eventually I'm going to find someone to nuke in the demo!
