Conquests is much better, in my opinion, than Gold by itself. The rules editing of Conquests is that you can make really unique scenarios with interesting win conditions.

Gold is essentially CivIII plus a patched version of Play The World expansion. Play The World adds in a few new features plus the following civs:
The Arabs
The Carthaginians
The Celts
The Koreans
The Mongols
The Spanish
The Ottomans
The Vikings

Conquests adds in the Inca, Maya, Aztecs, Byzantines (Empress Theodora = HOT!), Portugal, Netherlands, and the Hittites, as well as new game modes such as Regicide, Capture The Princess, and other goodies.

Stalin was featured to be the Russian leader in Civ I. I do not know if he sitll was in Civ II, though.

And Napoleon was the French leader in the first game as well.

I think they tried to be...well, how to say..erm.. more *humanist* maybe ?..
