I am playing civ again after a break of over a year and Im getting really into it and want to buy an expansion. Now i know that BNW is coming out soon. So should I just buy one or the other? Buy both? Money isnt really an issue.

G&K improved Civ immensely. If you buy BNW you'll get all the G&K improvements minus the civilizations. There is also a way to upgrade to gold edition for tweny bucks on steam if you have vanilla Civ. The gold edition includes everything published (including G&K), minus korea and ancient wonders if memory serves.
So in short, if you buy BNW you get all the G&K features minus the civs. It all depends how much you want the G&K civs. Best bang for the buck imho would be upgrading to gold edition and buying BNW.

Thanks for the help! Ill look on steam for them
You can be pretty sure a brand new release won't be in a Steam sale right away.Is the newest expansion pack for Civ (Brave new World) going to be part of the Summer sale??
Right now, on sale at Amazon for 27.00
Should I wait.

Yeah, Steam avoids discounting stuff that's only a month or two old when they do sales. I'd expect Civ 5 Gold to get a steep discount, but BNW won't.
Given that, go ahead and buy BNW. Then, keep an eye out for the Steam Summer Sale, and wait until Civ 5 Gold gets a good sale. That way, you get all the gameplay updates now in BNW, and you can get the other civs (from G&K and the DLC) for cheap in Civ 5 Gold.

I wouldn't recommend waiting for a sale if money isn't an issue. It's only a few dollars that you would save, anyway [not worth the wait, IMO].
Gold and BNW is goodHey guys,
If I want all the patches, updates, civs, dlcs, scenarios and wonders is buying Gold Edition Civ5 and then BNW enough?
I was thinking of buying Civ5, GK, and BNW all of them but is that silly?
