Look at that. Earth. You want it, you can try to get it. Problem is, everyone else wants a piece of that mass.

Who are you going to be?

Sitting Bull?

Stalin?

Gandhi?

Civ 4 is a turn based strategy game available for the computer. In it, your goal is to build an entire civilization, picking everything from your religion to your economic goals to what kind cavalry you use to kill some bears. You can even play online, and this thread is for people who wish to do so.

(Also the Steam version is compatible with the instore version. So if you guys can pick up the expansion on Steam without any hassle.)

WHO WANTS TO CONQUER THE WOLRD?

(If you have Beyond the Sword, the new expansion, that is.)

    You can get this on steam, guys. Just to let you all know. It's really fun to play with others.

    Why can't we just play the core.

    I simply can't upgrade it.

    There are people I play this game with!

    You don't need to get Warlords to play Beyond the Sword; BoS comes with Warlords content.

    As for Civ 2, I never played it. All I know is that you can do a lot more in the late game than you could before. Also, random events happen (like your scientists will have a break-through and you'll get more research, or a tornado could ruin your opponents crops.)

    The thread title might as well be "Hey, you wanna spend Friday night and all of Saturday playing a game? [Civ 4]"

    It's the Risk of videogames. It's incredibly fun, but getting together and completing a game is mind-numbing.

    Beyond the Sword is awesome dudes

    Espionage adds a ton and the random events make it sim city-esque and all the other little things rock

    I have been playing it a ton lately

    I have only the core game. I have barely played it.

    Seriously I only played it for roughly an hour several months ago. I used to spend days playing a game of civ3.

    Also Stalin was one classy looking motherfucker.

    it's 64$ total for both the original and beyond the sword on steam

    which is more than I have to spend for something I have so little time to play

    my general rule when it comes to PC games is twenty dollars or less

    it's how I got half-life 2

    Well, I am saving my money for other purchases so I can't buy this, as much as I want a solid strategy game of some sort. I mean I can't even spare that sort of cash at this point.
