I remember playing the original on the Amiga and have enjoyed the whole series may look into getting this.

feckin awesome game, takes a few days to get into it but then you're hooked. i have played every one of these games.

(starting with civ 1 on the commodore amiga 500+ - the 4 floppy disks took 50 mins to load a new game )

Horribly addictive games:

Civ 4
Football Manager (any)
Total War

just....one.....more.....turn!!
