It is again time for our “Game Of The Month”, for the competition among all civ-fanatics who is the best! In this month’s challenge you are playing Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon on a standard size Pangaea Plus map, and you must be winning this game with a Diplomacy victory. No other restrictions apply, besides that you must finish before May 2. For more info, and the savegame, please check this thread.
The latest Civ7 news are again interesting! We got a first gameplay traile for the VR version, which will be released on April 10 for Meta Quest 3 and 3S. For the discussion please check here.
Civ7 has also been confirmed for the Switch 2. While the Switch 2 should run all Switch games, adapted versions can take better advantage of the stronger hardware. So far the only advantage known are the mouse controls. In case you already own Civ7 on the Switch and you want the Switch 2 version, you will be able to buy an upgrade (price unknown so far). For the discussion please check this thread.

The guys over at Apolyton are also hardcore civ fans, and some have kept on working at their community mod for Call To Power 2. This is the first release for quite some time, and they added quite some bug fixes and other small changes to the game. If you’re playing CtP2, then definitely have a look at it! You can find the info about the mod over at Apolyton here, or you can also discuss it here at CFC.
The patch notes for 1.1.1 are out now and you can find them here or in the forum here.

We also got the next part of the Crossroads DLC, you can now play as Bolivar, Nepal or Bulgaria.
Today we had the developer update live stream, and it gave us some interesting news. Long awaited options like regenerating the start, renaming your cities or directly quitting to desktop will be added, among gameplay improvements such as quick move, more UI improvements and balancing and pacing changes. Other points not directly mentioend are that The “Right to Rule” DLC is delayed until summer, and apparently all forum members love the Bulgarian soundtrack. If you want to join the discussion of the live stream, then please check this thread.
Civ has a long tradition of mods, and Civ7 is no different. We already got a range of smaller mods, which do some excellent work in improving Civ7. But installing them and keeping them up-to-date can be complicated.
Now no more! Our user leonardify took on the challenge to create a mod manager for Civ7, and it seems to be working nicely. With it you can manage all the mods here from CivFanatics, without worrying too much about the technicalities. You can check out his website here, and you can discuss the mod manager also in the Civ7 modding forum here. Give it a try!
