You dont have to play through the entire history. You can set the game to which era you want to start in.

Can you also set which era you want to end in?

With mods.

So those on here would recommend Civ 5?

I've played the hell out of Civ IV but wouldn't mind trying out the new version, finally.

I heard negative things early about some of the things removed from the previous game.

The game was shit when it came out. Then the lead developer was fired I believe and a new guy came in and fixed it to the point where I would say its probably the best Civ I've played.

I heard the same bad reviews you did and I didn't buy it til I got the entire Civ5 set for like $15 on steam sale.

So I'd need to get at least the first expansion pack, then, from the way it sounds.

Of course. They are expansions. You can't expand with BNW without first expanding with G&K.

The problem is that the game wasn't really fixed and balanced until the last expansion. Go figure.

Brave New World is amazing. It's worth it just itself.

Me too...right now I am replaying every leader on BTS Civ 4. I have spent a bazillion hours on the thing.

I tried Civ 5 when it first came out and HATED it. Maybe I should rethink my position.
