    I love settler spam with Creative and the settler boosting traits (Catherine of Russia IIRC, or maybe Khmer).

    We should make a Forgotten Realms Civ4 mod.

    Found as many religions as possible, starting with hinduism (buddhism mostly gets snatched by one of the rival civs).

    I played it a lot, but it's a long time since I don't, so I don't remember anything besides having built the Manhattan Project (and I was playing with Gengis Khan, lol) and blasted away an entire enemy city (which actually was the last standing one in the map...) with an Atomic Bomb.

    Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, steal their technology when making "peace", rinse and repeat.

    You almost make that sound like a bad thing.

    The only CIV I haven't really played (tried a bit once, but didn't really get into it for some reason). Maybe I should change that since I was a little disappointed in CIV5 after playing for 100+ hours. CIV3 is still my favorite.

    Yeah I'm a big Civ3 fan. I've tried Four, but it just never clicked with me.

    I am stuck on Civ5. Can't bring myself back to 4 for some reason even though I enjoyed it in the day.
    Can't remember much about it excecpt spamming religion and making a border or culture to push other civs away and steal their land.

    I have sunk so many hours of my life into Civ 4. I tried to play 5 several times and never could get into it.

    My top civs:
    1. Inca
    2. Egyptians - both leaders
    3. England - Elizabeth

    Lately I've been going for a space race. Spamming corporations and hording resources for massive 33+ pop cities. Washington is fun for that stuff.

    Paradox Development Studios ruined Civ for me, but I loved the first four games.

    What does Paradox have to do with Civ? Firaxis is the company that makes that franchise. Paradox makes the Europa Universalis games, which have absolutely nothing to do with the Civilization series.

    Yeah, except trying to go back to Civ after their games was an eye-opener.
    I still own and love Civ 4, but every time I fire it up, I get bored :/

    And hear the lamentations of their women?
