BtS is the second add-on "Beyond the Sword". It brings lots of new units and technologies and can be downloaded. Or else we can play without it, it's still awesome then.

Civ4 is turn-based. If humans play against each other, it's still turn-based, but all players do their turns simultaneously. Otherwise it would take too long.

For those who don't know that game: You choose one out of many civilizations which all have unique characteristics. The game starts 4000 BC, you build cities, enlarge your territory, do science (watch all technologies (http://www.civfanatics.com/civ4/info/techs/)), have religions (buddhism, hinduism, judaism, christianity, islam, taoism, confucianism) and spread them, you have many diplomatic options (open boarders, trade ressources, defense pacts, ...), you can build a lot of military units to take over cities or make diplomatic pressure or do holy war etc...
It's a game for those who like to play god.

I am going to host a game which can be joint in the "Multiplayer => Internet" menu.
