I'm having trouble getting it to work, I DLed the 3 no cd exes and they all work individualy but not the actual civ 3 complete. Any insights?

Actually, it's just that. You have exes for three of them. The conquest part includes actually all the other two(civ3 original and civ 3 ptw). The scenarios from ptw and the original civ3 are included in the civcontent area of civ3 conquests.
You need the following no-cd's: civ3ptw v.127f, civ3 original v.1.29f and civ3 conquests v1.22.
The exes for ptw and the original are, i think, for the case when you play online and your opponent doesn't own civ3 complete.
If you are also a civ fanatic, you might consider take a look here: http://www.civfanatics.com/civ3/downloads/
Gives a new life to old and new games. You can find mods for all the civs and i must say that they are awesome. I have installed around 4gb of mods and none of the mods that i selected didn't disappointed me a bit.

Oh ok, thank you very much, and I did see that site while I was trying to figure out the no cd thing so I'll prolly check it out if I get bored of the original :P

Well the game works all but some of the text being in the wrong places and a bunch of other weird stuff, but fundamentaly the game works, any thoughts on how to fix this though? It's annoying to not know what year it is in the game.

Future reference, there is an "edit" button for a reason ...

Glad that helped. Check also the smooth fonts option in civ3. I wish you a long fun.
