Bringing Civ 4 "One more turn" to Civ 5?

[dudeSDCA]

So long time civ series player. Still love and play Civ 4 w/ mods (Rise of Mankind - A New Dawn is amazing).

Civ 5 vanilla was not for me (personal preference). Most people on the forums (in my opinion) seem to say Civ 5 + G&K + BNW is really great.

My question - what mods would you recommend for Civ 5 to bring that "just one more turn, stay up all night" feeling? Specifically looking for mods that bring added complexity and depth of play.

Not looking to rehash civ 4 vs. civ 5 (plenty of other threads). Instead looking for mods to help an old civ 4 player enjoy civ 5 more

Thx!

Smart AI mod improves Civ5 combat AI, CivIV Diplomatic Features improves diplomacy (unfortunately both mods aren't compatible with each other but maybe in the future it will change )

There are many VERY HIGH QUALITY awesome custom civilisations http://forums.civfanatics.com/forumdisplay.php?f=399 - check especially threads: More Civilisations, Patria Grande, Colonialist Legacies, JFD's Civilisations

http://www.picknmixmods.com/main/home/home.html - many little awesome tweaks and fixes, compatible with Civ IV Diplomatic Features

Info Addict - must have, lot of additional statistics

Reform and Rule - great balance mod of Social Policies

Yet Another Earth Maps Pack - Earth maps with historical starting locations and customizable nations

Historical Spawn Dates [does not support custom civilisations]

Emigration - introduces awesome 'Emigration' mechanic

Health and Plague - introduces awesome plagues mechanic

Corporations

Ethnic Units

Quick Turns

Uhm... Check my signature, maybe you will like something from my own mods

It does, same way as with YnAEMP, the author of the custom civ can add a spawning date to the table used by the mod.

Thanks for these!! Started playing and already found it way better than vanilla Civ 5 (which was personally a turn off for me (not trolling)

I really like the "Reform and Rule" pack that changes all of the policy trees. Can't see going back to non-modded Civ, actually.
