I don't know if you guys heard, but I was just reading Penny Arcade's news post and Tycho said:
"Fall From Heaven II is a Civilization IV mod, supposedly, but that grievously undersells what's been accomplished. It's not new, by any means, but my experience with the Dwarf Fortress stuff above brought it swiftly to mind. I read the manual for it during Christmas last year, the manual, and it has remained fresh in my thoughts for months. I'd recommend you do the same, even if you don't own Civilization 4 or have any intention of playing it. The story and the game mechanisms are woven so tight that they're almost inextricable."
Here's a link to it: http://www.penny-arcade.com/2009/3/13/
EDIT: Nevermind, I see another thread noticed this.
