I don't think I have the brainspace right now, alas. I will enjoy my adult beverages in the peanut gallery for this game.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I thought the Cylon Fleet was interesting. I wouldn't mind trying it again.

I'm out this round.

Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
So, I haven't played a Civilization game since Civ 2, but I downloaded Civilization: Revolution when it was free on Xbox Live last month. Finally fired it up last weekend...
It's amazing how easy it is to fall into losing sleep because of the "Just one more turn" mentality I had 20 years ago. Of course now days the pain of that missing sleep is far, far greater.
At least I should go to bed on time tonight. I have to prep my Pathfinder game so we can actually play tomorrow night.

Oh yeah. Totally. The iPad version doesn't help with that problem either.

I'll jump back in!
I vote for the Demetrius, since we haven't tried that before.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Oh yes, I remember that one. Always just one more tech advance to reach.

Excellent! That's four people so far. I seem to recall a lurker mentioning sometime around the start of last game that they'd like to join in sometime. New players are always welcome, anyone else want to give it a try?

I fired up CIV a few days ago but the computer froze around the time I got Iron Working and mostly I felt relieved.

I made the mistake of seeing what the more recent Civ games are going for these days and they're pretty cheap. I'm tempted, but the logical part of my brain is saying I really don't need a more in-depth time-sucking version of the game I'm already spending way too much time on. (Civ Rev basically being the light version of the series.)
That, and I think my gf would murder me as soon as the box arrived.

And the iPad version is the light version of it. Is that the diet version??
