Played Civ II to IV and loved every one of them. No matter what people tell about III.
Played MoO II to death also, but really wouldn't compare it with the Civ games that much.
I clearly voted for SMAC though, if that game didn't have the science-fiction story it might be my all-time favourite game ever. It had so many great things, that even now, so many years after it has been published have rarely been reached by any other game, be it a Civ clone or not. The Diplomacy is the best I have ever seen in any game. Cease Attacking that faction was great but somehow never made it into the Civ game, same with the Protectorate things. (Don't know if that was their original name).
And the story was glorious. Although I could not keep myself playing SMAC for very long, because I somehow couldn't relate to the technologies anymore I did anyways just to know what would happen to the Gaians and what they would find out about the Locusts and Mindworms.
Not even mentioning using them in battle.
It was really a great game with unique factions that all played out differently.
Loved it!![]()
