Civ V - Gods and Kings Pre-Order

[Gusington]

^AH...how do you know this? You're like a Civ god :)

So if you are correct above (I am assuming you are) then how do you use two mods at once?

And to think I expected this to be all easy peasy.

According to Steam, I've logged over 500 hours playing CiV.  :P Ya pick up a few things.....

Most mods are meant to run with others. You need to read up to see if any particular mod is compatible with any others. Most aren't.

I use CivFanatics website for looking into the workings of mods. They also have LOTS of hints and strategy guides, but most are for God levels.... They are not too tolerant of Princely players like me.  :P

500 hours. Crikey.

+1 CivFanatics.  I don't participate in the forums, but I have used their guides, hints and suggestions.  And still I remain on Prince.  Must be my fault ;-)  It's my understanding that our very own W8aminute was a luminary over there. 

[Gusington]

Luminary in a good way?

[MetalDog]

^ Yes, in a good way.

Just won my first game through a science victory. And by using a lot of nukes. Not sure how I feel about that...but building the spaceship felt nice.

Nicely done!  So, have you caught the bug?  Is it, "Just one more turn", enough that you will be playing more?

[Gusington]

I have to tell you...I typically don't like modern military units in games but I could not help squeal like a little girl when my civ Giant Robot crushed all before it. Using nukes is disturbingly satisfying too.

I have definitely caught the bug and now that I actually have won a game...I think it will only get worse. Next up...taking on the Italians (Romans) as Ethiopia in a custom-modded industrial era scenario.

[Gusington]

So what next...Empire of the Smoky Skies or Ethiopia?

[Barthheart]

Smokey Skies.

[Gusington]

How come? I mean, steampunk is steampunk but Ethiopia is friggin' badass and I can make them Jewish!

LOL! 'Cause I haven't played it yet and am tangled up in Endless Space..... :P

[Gusington]

I am considering starting an Endless Space campaign too. Your claim of a 20 hour campaign makes it very tempting. But again...steampunk! And Ethiopians. Too many choices!!

[Barthheart]

Steampunk.....
