I have both copies, the Gold has a lot better graphics and situations. I have Win 7 OS. I believe you can get into the game better with Gold. But if you just want the less costly original that is ok as well. Hope this helps. LD

I installed ages of rome gold and it plays ages of rome and imperium with no problem,I did not have theoriginal game before this.Hope that helps

Hello, you do not need the original version as the gold edition has the complete original game. It is a lot of fun and provides lots of game time. I highly recommended it both for those who enjoy battle games and city building as it is a blend of the two.

u can down load it on line, but be very careful, it could be tricky, also it still takes days to download rome2 and i mean days

When you install the game, Imperor Augustus will be automatically installed with the game so you don't have to get emperors edition edition! :-)

The one I purchased was the first edition of the expansion. I don't know of the second is out yet.

Yeah esp since you can get it new on Amazon for $25 with all dlcs included. Apocalypse edition that is.

Buy the digital download version, not the physical copy. Also Brave New World is an expansion pack that requires the original Civilization 5. Double check that as well.

No, it doesn't. You have to buy the code online or find an edition that still has it included.

I purchased the second edition and had no problems running mods, first edition will also run them, so its up to personal preference

Yes. Make sure that you didn't buy the downloaded version. It should come with 2 Disc. Hope this helped you.

Yes, it is a stand alone game and you do not need to get the earlier copies. However there is additional dlc that you can purchase to expand the normal gameplay.

You do not need the first edition to play the second edition =) Both are 100% stand alone games.

I am not sure if there is a way to tell from the package the one i purchased was 4th edition, it still has the same great game quality.

There is now an adapter kit you can get to make your 3rd edition work with the 4th edition expansion. It's an extra $11, but cheaper than re-buying the base set.
