  • Civilization 5: Korea, and Wonders of the Ancient World

    Two Civilization 5 DLCs have been released: Civilization and Scenario Pack: Korea, and Wonders of the Ancient World Scenario Pack


    From 2K Greg's announcement:
    The first is Civilization and Scenario Pack: Korea, which allows you to play as Sejong, King of the Choson Dynasty as the leader of the Korean civilization. The scenario begins with Toyotomi Hideyoshi having just unified Japan, and is looking towards Korea to expand his empire. In the scenario you can play as Korea, China, Manchuria, or Japan.

    The second is something a bit different than we’ve done in the past: Wonders of the Ancient World Scenario Pack. This add-on adds three new early-game wonders to the game: The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, the Statue of Zeus, and the Temple of Artemis. The scenario is a race between the civilizations to be the greatest builder of the Wonders of the Ancient World.

      I agree, they better be very careful if they even do an expansion pack. I'd prefer them not to do an expansion pack and stick to DLC.

      Wait, so instead of doing expansion packs, they're just selling scenarios piecemeal now? How deplorably crass...do you pay licensing fees to distribute fan scenarios too?

      I don't think anything in either direction has been confirmed by Firaxis.

  • Do you Ever Move Your First Settler?
    by Aeson
    An interesting article at The Escapist about Civilization and some of the goings-on behind the scenes at Firaxis:

    http://www.escapistmagazine.com/arti...s-Civ-V-Studio



    I have a lot of problems with the methods Firaxis tested this with. Turning off barbs, limiting AI expansion ... those are two critical factors for how big an impact waiting to found your first city will be.

    I myself like to move the other unit first, see if there's a good spot to move the Settler to in a couple of turns or less. A river hill is is hard to pass up moving to. The extra production from the hill will pay off the first move very quickly.

    How about you? In what circumstances do you feel moving the Settler is a good idea?...
