Yep'
Another Sid Meier game, this time it's
Civilization 4.
Its not linear, so you don't have to follow a certain tech tree or religion. There are also 18 civilizations, each with a leader (Some have two leaders to pick). The leaders and empires are stated here in horrible ASCII art.

You start with a settler. Pretty much it. He will be the start of your empire, by building the first city, which we have to find a name for. I'll be playing in a random creation of large land masses called "continents". The religions are also a option in the game, being Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Taoism. I won't start at the beginning of one of the religions, but if favor prefers, I'll probably head towards the religion techwise.
There are 9 difficulties. From easiest to lowest, they are : Settler, Chieftain, Warlord, Noble, Prince, Monarch, Emperor, Immortal, and Deity. I'll be playing from Warlord. You guys can decide what the empire and leader can be. Also, first town name should be thought of. Anyways, not much else to say, except...
LETS PLAY!English Empire
Queen Elizabeth
1 Town
2 Warrior Platoons
Wealth : 0g
Technology : Mining, Fishing, Agriculture, Animal Husbandry, and Hunting
