DESCRIPTION

Conveniently released alongside the game's second Beyond the Sword expansion pack, Sid Meier's Civilization IV includes the original game and its first add-on, Warlords.

Many of the most significant additions to the fourth version of Civilization involve customization. The tech tree remains the roadmap to scientific and industrial advancement, but there is now more than one path to milestone discoveries. The religion model offers more customization as well, and players can now better use the power of faith to spread their culture, or they can choose to have no state religion at all, boosting scientific endeavors.

In the Civilization IV: Warlords expansion pack, "Warlord" characters become available as "great people," and ten historical leaders are added, including leaders for both existing and expansion civilizations. Six civilizations and six scenarios, such as "Chinese Unification," "Peloponnesian Wars," and "Rise of Rome," are featured in the expansion. Other additions include new wonders, units, resources, buildings, and leader traits. The expansion also includes all patches and game upgrades previously released for Civilization IV. ~ All Game Guide
