Hello!
A returning Civ IV player would like to know which mod to try out. I dusted off the DVD covers and put in the worn Civ IV disk the other day, started a game as Egypt (Ramesses), played till the modern age and... wanted something different. I'm still going to finish the game, but I don't think I want to start a new vanilla game very soon.
I've never played a Civ IV mod and I don't really fancy the ones in the game. I like exploring, capturing resources and waging war on a moderate scale (i.e. not huge wars). What I dislike about Civ IV is how quickly some eras pass, but then I also don't want to play a Marathon game. I'd also like to have more diplomatic options than simply choosing my religion (oh no, I said too much).
I think I'd like a mod with interesting tech trees and nice resources sprinkled around - and I'd like the map to be random, if that's possible. I don't want to relearn the game, which makes me shy away from the mods in the game.
I checked the mod forum and there were tons of mods. Which one of them would you recommend to me?
