Addendum question: what if I'm absolute ass at strategy games? I cannot understand enough of Civ to have any strategy nailed down, and that's why I enjoy it. Is Civ 4 better or at least equal on this front? Do I need a bunch of old game knowledge to make this fun? For reference, I'm okay with being steamrolled by AI, as long as I don't need to do any googling to get past it

ok so there is grand strategy and tactics. Both probably the same in grand strategy, civ5 probably requires more thinking the tactics department. in civ4 you just make sure your stack of doom is bigger (more units in single tile).
