Ideologies are super important to a civilization's culture, and Brave New World wants to address the Cultural Victory option as well. Instead of what Beach calls the "passive" option of building a few cities and kind of holing up while you attempt to make them amazing, the goal is for Brave New World is to reintroduce the idea of cultural warfare. You won't convert a city to your civilization a la Civilization IV, but you can win by exerting majority cultural influence over all the other civilizations.
Intredasting, since Cultural victories are by the the most aggravating to get.

Culture is only one aspect of the Civilization V experience, and Brave New World also plans on bolstering other systems like diplomacy. The United Nations still plays a huge role in a Diplomatic Victory, but prior to its creation you'll have the option to interact with other civilizations via the World Congress. This body is created one a civilization meets every other nation in the world and creates a printing press. After it's established, every civilization gets a number of delegates that they can use to vote on policies (allied city-states also supply you with delegates). The two policies that are voted on each sessions are picked by the host nation that first created the World Congress, as well as the current leader who has the most delegates. The World Congress can ban certain luxury items, put a trade embargo on other countries and do "all kinds of things that change the rules of the game with each session of congress," said Beach. After each session there's a period before the voting takes place, allowing savvy leaders to go around and push other civilizations to trade for votes or straight-up buy them.

We need to play whenever I get my pc built again. I was logging about 30-40 hours a week before I sold my pc.
I'm still not that great

Sounds good, yeah you can't bring too many single player strategies into the multiplayer. You can do a lot of work by dealing with build orders, etc.

man that sounds more like a DLC not an expansion to me. at least god and kings (re)added religion... culture and culture victory already exist in vanilla C V.

Well I only quoted the major gameplay changes. Looks like nine new civs, new great people types, new wonders, etc.

I plan to try to get it all. I enjoy playing with dido and washington
I love the free road building and auto harbors with dido and the 1/2 price tile buying with washington

I love Washington because I can press enemies with the +1 sight and expand with the half priced tiles. The unique units come too late for me to take advantage of though, I am through expanding and conquering by the time gunpowder rolls around.

I think the B17 is a great special unit, especially if you can get flight first because the B17 is one of the earliest flight units

I think I would love Civ5.
One of you guys need to jump on vent, mumble or Skype to show me the ropes.

With the addition of the newer WW1 era flying units, I have an unstoppable army of planes that attack twice and heal every turn by the time the stealth bomber rolls around.

Its an aboslutely addicting game. The only problem is myfriends and I usually start around 9pm and don't end until 2-3am

I love the Civilization games but have never been very good at the details of the game. I always just build armies and attack. I'd love to learn the more intricate parts of the game. I still don't know what all the stuff about each city does.

I find this part to be absolutely fascinating:

Another way you can obtain Great Works for display is through the new archaeology system. After you research archaeology you'll be able to visit antiquity sites of "historic" battles fought earlier in the game, searching for artifacts you can display in museums. Imagine going back to the canyon where your bold Mayan Atlatlists held off the invading Greek spear men over 1,000 years ago -- you can display something of their sacrifice, becoming the envy of your neighbors.

I wonder if they will count barbarian brutes as past ruins, I have epic early game battles depending on how many encampments are around my capital
