    Government types

    Bit of an odd one this but do people ever approach a game with the mindset of adopting a particular set of beliefs or government type like Communism or Democracy. I ask because for me in Civ 4, playing as a communist regime really felt like you were a communist regime, you had particular...

    Dealing with runaway Civs [BNW]
