@thegamechief.bsky.social Hi Brian! Good old Sid Meier's Civilization 2 doesn't make it into mainstream gaming news much these days but amazingly my Civ2 Heroes of Might & Magic 2 mod I showed you & my other Civ2 work has made it into PC Gamer magazine! :) blakessanctum.wordpress.com/2026/07/24/i...
