Well, if image 12 of those images doesn't finally put to rest the notion that this is just an expansion pack for Civ IV, I don't know what will!!!!!

How does image 12 prove "this is just an expansion pack for Civ IV"? I fail to see the resemblance.

You misunderstood him... he said it puts to rest the notion... ie, that it proves it is not just an expansion

Ahhh.... the double negative. We Aussies prefer sarcasim.

Well, one thing that obviously is different, is the city system. Placing cities that close in Civ4 would be disastrous.

How about the fact that it's a completely different freakin' interface!!??

Oh, and Dale, it's not no frekin' double negative.

In original Colonization too... I'm a bit surprised to see this, you guys should point that out in your incoming Q&A with the Firaxis guys...

I think you'll find that those cities were placed that way for visual affect for screenshots, rather than any gameplay reason.
