I never heard of this 'Clash of Civilizations' game, but there's an 'Open Source' Civ clone out there. FreeCiv is at www.freeciv.org and it's about as good as Civ II except for the graphics. 'Free' and 'Open Source' projects have a problem with achieving the same sort of 'polished' appearance as most commercial projects. But if you're smart enough to know the difference between gameplay and marketting gimmicks you'll find FreeCiv plays quite well. And there are binaries for Win32! Nifty.
