Now I have to get the expansion! Great review and great recommendation

[jamielehn]

It is really good! The base mechanism- focus bar is such a cool idea. This is a really underrated game. This expansion makes a good game great!

I was waiting for you to do this one!!! Thanks!!!

Really a case of an essential expansion. Makes the game tick, and it's a pretty good translation of the franchise overall.

[AlBundy]

This game including Terra Incognita is my favourite game.

[FalkFlak]

This is an awesome expansion. Well done FFG!
I already liked the base game but exploration and individual abilities for each Civ are so important for this type of game.

The only minor grievance I have with it is the small number of armies. It makes the scope of the game smaller than it was before. Oh, and the box itself is trash.

Thanks for this review! My dad will be getting this (and the base game) for Christmas. He has played Civ II at least once a month since the 90s!

Agreed with your opinion. Overall the game with the expansion is okay, a forgettable experience in a sea crowded with other attractive competitors. But this expansion, pushes it so far above that it is now actually a contender for best Civ-style game in my book.

So now that the new edition of Clash of Cultures is out... would LOVE to hear your thoughts between these two games both emulating the classic videogame in different ways.

I always like variety and many options.
A bigger action line, more resources, more land hexes, etc
AN atack cant pass throught reforced cultural tokens (great rule change)

[franck]

Great review. My banker hate you, you know?

[cardgamesever]

Hi Cody, Thanks for sharing these videos. Which game ranks higher for you ? This one or the new Clash of Cultures ?
My family is on tight budget and we can only effort 1 of them.

Cheers,
John

Did the expansion address the fact that its a race to airplanes and then the game is over? Our complaint is that even with the victory conditions, domination becomes the focus

Next expansion for this game: Mage Knight.

Would you prefer civ a new dawn + expansion over clash of cultures, and if so could you explain why that is?

I was not a fan of the base game. Felt very generic and kinda... Boring? I did like the action selection
