Gold Version - First Look

The Gold Version is a Major improvement. Make sure you have the patch installed.

I also think that the TDM mod is almost required. The guys that put this together have really done a nice job. Keep it updated, as they improve it fairly regularly. Not to take anything away from the other great Mods here, however, I've found the TDM one to be a little more stable and glitch free then some of the others. I think it's because it's a group effort and therefore gets a little more practical testing then some of the others before they go up.

Another really interseting effort you may want to look at is the Proportions mod.

All in all, personally, I don't really mind sending Malfador money regularly, if they would keep improving the game.

( Are you listening, Richard?! SUBSCRIPTIONS!!!)

TDM is more stable because it keeps all SE IV data intact and change only AI files. Other mods mess up everything possible and impossible.

I agree that there is no logic whatsoever to play unmoded SE IV without TDM (if computer players participate of course).

I really like Gold, its an improvement for sure but not neccesarily a be all end all to the line (obviously).

I was also hoping for a Civ/Civ2 esque 300+ manual wiht technical descriptions you could fall asleep reading (cause they're so long, not boring).

I WANT NUMBERS! haha. Also, tech tree, a la civ, would be nice
