Nope, not a sci-fi game. And, not much space elements in there either. But, Civ is and always will be a strategy classic, and that’s why you get to see posts about Civ games here from time to time. Although, in Gods & Kings (Civ 5’s first expansion), you do have some science fiction elements to explore. Besides (re)including the religion and espionage concepts, and introducing 9 new civilizations, and 3 others from Civ 5 DLCs (among many other things<\/a>) this expansion features a science fiction Victorian steampunk<\/a> scenario called “Empires of the Smoky Skies”. The only thing I could dig up on this scenario till now is that there will be flying airships and huge tractor-like tanks from a unique tech tree.<\/p>\n Civ 5: Gods & Kings is now available for pre-order. If you buy digital, like in Steam<\/a>, GamersGate<\/a> or GreenManGaming<\/a> you’ll get a 10% discount, for 1 or 2 beers depending on where you live. If you prefer a nifty box then you can also pre-order now, without the discount. You have the list of official retailers here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Civ 5: Gods & Kings is targeted for release in Jun 19, 2012. This expansion requires you to own the original Civ 5 base game.<\/p>\n I hope they have fixed diplomacy. And the overall boredom (not much to do). Apparently the AI will now know<\/em> how to invade by see properly. We’ll see. Expect a review couple of days after release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sid Meier’s Civilization V: Gods & Kings (Civ 5’s first expansion) is now available for pre-order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1668,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"registered_only","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[74],"tags":[742,11,830,1013,741,1012],"class_list":["post-6963","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-announcements-and-rumors","tag-2k-games","tag-civilization","tag-civilization-5-gods-kings","tag-espionage","tag-firaxis-games","tag-steampunk"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6963","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1668"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6963"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6963\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6963"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6963"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6963"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
