I’ve been a gamer longer than I’ve been online. One of the first webpages I put online was about Warhammer 40,000 specifically the army I’ve played since 2nd Edition.
Besides 40K and Nurgle I’ve written about other games I play especially games created by Sid Meier such as Civilization. I am a big fan of the 4X genre. Of course I also like other genres of video games. I’ve played a lot of tabletop games as well. As a result I’ve done a lot of blogging about miniature painting.

Last week the 2nd expansion to the video game, Sid Meier’s Civilization V was released. Against my better judgement I download it on day one. I’ve only managed to finish four games since then, but that still represents substantial time and effort, especially when added to the fact all the time I’ve put in since the first game was released in the 90s. Sid Meier is my favourite video game designer and Civilization is undoubtably the video game series that I’ve spent the most time on. As a result I have more than a few thoughts on how to play the game, even though I don’t play competitively or even optimally, I still have much hard earned experience.
