And my new addiction, CivIV. Yeah. Having fun with that game. Still getting my brain around the changes from CivIII, but so far it looks like it's a winner.
I got Civ IV for my birthday (20th), and I love it. My first Civ game. It's the reason I haven't been keeping up with everyone else in WoW. It's a bit overwhelming, but I think I'm getting the hang of it. That is, I thought I had it under control until time elapsed a bit and I started having to worry about oil and the culture slider and all sorts of mumbo jumbo that didn't show up in the tutorial.
Regardless, I managed to win my first game on Settler difficulty, though it was by score. (9 players) All of the civs united at the beginning, so it was sort of difficult to play puppet master and turn them all on each other while keeping myself safe. I did manage to rid the world of those pesky Spaniards and Americans, though.
I don't think I'm quite ready to jump online, yet. I have a feeling that if I do, I'll have to come up with a new definition for the word "Pwn".
