    This is an old school game I used to play back in the day. A friend just started re-playing it and got me to play along.

    It is your basic build up your resources, build up army using resources, take others resources using said army but all the while defending your village from others who think they are better than you.

    All in all, I have played a bit of these types of games and this one has been the better of the lot.

    If you use the link above, it will place you near me which if we are successful we can later start defending each other from other attacks.

    Pretty sure that was the first series I ever started with but after playing the Civilization series, there was no contest.

    Utopia

    Hey guys, anyone here play this game?

    A new round (age) has started where everyone starts back at the beginning. this happens around every 3 months. I'm the monarch of my kingdom and have a spare invite to use if anyone seriously wants to play (we're an active kingdom and people who aren't active enough (log in at least 1-2 times a day) get killed off.)

    We need an attacker.

    CIV IV was awesome. Then they changed it to a 3D type board and yeah didn't like it. I still play CIV IV every once in a while, huge time hog.

    For everyone that wants to play Civ V

    Steam having a huge deal. You can get the whole thing Civ V and mainly the Gods and Kings EP for like 12 bucks.
