Damn.  For a second, I thought it said Civ IV, and I got all excited.  :P

Don't worry, the base game gives plenty of fun already. Enjoy already the base game and check the expansions when they are on sale....at least that's what i did.

A new patch released today contains something that I've wished Civilization had for a long, long time. A randomized Tech Tree option like Alpha Centauri has:  :bigthumb:


[NEW FEATURES]
Tech and Civic Shuffle Mode

This new game mode adds variety to the tech tree, as it shuffles techs and civics within their historical eras, leading to different costs and prerequisites than normal. The resulting trees are the same for all players. Techs and civics are also hidden until a prerequisite is earned, preserving the mystery of discovery all the way until the end of the game.

Somewhere, somehow, I woke up in the wrong timeline. I'm pretty sure this isn't even my dimension.

I've never been to keen on these special game modes. I've yet to try the Red Death thingy. But pirates? Yeah, I'm soooo trying that one.  :bigthumb:

The Spiffing Brit doesn't always resonate with me, but this video made me laugh.
