New Gamespy E3 Preview on Civilization Remake

Just a few extra bits of info gathered from this Gamespy Preview:

1. It seems that the 52 Founding Fathers in the game are like a pool of special people. Each side gets to pick two at the beginning and the rest will join you depending on whether your side meets certain criteria. Like wonders in the Civ games, once one person has a Founding Father it isn't available to the other sides.

2. You have a 300 turn time limit to win the War of Independence (can't remember what it was in the original).

3. City Interface will be familiar to oldskool Colonization fans.

4. Gamespy concerned that is the game different enough to warrant a separate purchase (if it's the same price as an expansion, I say "Definitely, yes!" IMHO :)).
