Question, since this thread is more active: [William] if i construct a farm on a marsh tile, can i build a polder over it once i get guilds? I know it says it removes the marsh...

Super hype! Great OT, subbed.
Sorry if you all already did this, but what Civ do you plan on picking first? Will you dive in with one of the new ones or browse them all again to see what might have changed?
Playing for culture seems like the obvious thing to try first, but it will be fun to explore the trade route system from the perspective of a warlord, disrupting other civs' attempts at trade.

I remember proxying something to play CIV 5 Vanilla 3 days before launch and then thinking "oh, boy, how stupid was that. It was just 3 little days!"
...it is making sense all over again.
I'm a hardcore Random player, but going Brazil first makes too much sense to pass on. Both because I'm brazilian and because of the tourism bonuses which make it the ideal civ to learn these new mechanics.

Pretty sure that's a negative - no marsh, no polder.
No. The marsh is removed and polders need marshes to build.

Even when I tell myself I'm not going for a religion focus beforehand, it still unsettles me when my cities start adopting other religions.THBREEE MORE HOURS
Worked for me.
Gods and Kings is $50 on GMG for the ANZ version, lol. And I just got BNW for $21...

Steam tells me I have played 72 hours of Civ 5. That involves actually never playing any of the scenarios. I do random large map, pick a civ and play for hours on end. My gf always asks why I am playing the same game over and over. I love this game and cant wait to get this and start playing again.

Is it midnight east coast or west coast? Amazon keeps telling me midnight pacific time, which would really suck.
I'm not an atheist, but I also can't stand other civs sneaking their filthy beliefs into my empire. It's like someone sleeping in my bed or something.
It better be Beast Coast time tbh. I'm not waiting for the lesser coast.

East Coast. ~2.5 hours regardless of where you're at (in North America at least).

Good. Waiting until midnight is painful enough, 2am would just be cruel.
Reading over the first post and man, 2/5 or lower for Morocco? Am I reading that right? Desert is already one of the most advantageous starts in the game and that Kasbah is amazing.
You get Petra, a Kasbah, Desert Faith in your capital and you've got tiles producing 2 Food, 2 Production, 1 Gold, 1 Faith. Then add in bonuses for Flood Plains or Hills (though I'm not sure if you can put a Kasbah on a Flood Plain). Then you get culture and gold from trade routes - I think a well-situated Morocco is one of the most powerful forces in the game with just about every option open to them.
