I was this close to going out and buying this expansion pack today, but I've decided not to. I think I'm just suffering from patch/bug-fix fatigue. In other words, I'm simply too tired to bother downloading and installing yet another patch or trying to fix this bug or that.
Of course, I appreciate everyone's kind help here, but I still have an essentially "broken" game and so I don't think I will buy another Civ product for a while. I have yet to fix the TEXT_CIV and .dll problem and that is so annoying. Considering I've paid over $100 for the original game and Warlords, I feel ripped off.
By the way, the game start interface really sucks. I was expecting a huge amount of options (without going into this program or that), but alas no... Very disappointed in the playability of this game. Maybe it's paradise for people who are computer programmers, but for people like me it's hell. I should have just bought Civ III Gold or something...
Anyhow, not to be such a downer, but I expect BtS to be another frustrating journey that I don't want to go through again. And I really loved this game...
