Hi! New member here--I've played Civ4 BTS for years, having played the other versions before it, and I finally just got around to getting Civ 5 Gold Edition since I found it for sale really cheaply. I didn't expect the Gods and Kings expansion to "cover up" the original Civ 5, since that's not how it worked with Civ 4 expansions, but it did (I wanted to try it without the expansion and then again with), so I have to ask: What did I miss out on by skipping over the vanilla Civ 5?
