Welcome to this website, home of Rhye's creations for Sid Meier's Civilization series.
Among all the history games, Civilization has always been the most customizable, thus is materially a tool for creating great scenarios and mods you can download.
This site offers plenty of info on scenarios, maps and full mods made by Rhye for free. You can contribute to expand the strategy guides, editing our wiki.

December 30, 2005: "So, this 2005 has gone by and we had a lot of fun with RGCs, which are now finished. This was possible thanks to the huge effort we made all through 2004 in designing Rhye's of Civilization.
I still don't know what kind of year 2006 is going to be. Indeed, there is a project of updating the mod to Civilization IV. It may be very different from the Civ3 mod, as Civ4 already is a nearly perfect game and doesn't require many tweaks, and on the other hand, it offers many new modding possibilities through Python scripting.
Anyway, next RoC destiny is tied to the continuation of my job with Firaxis. The situation will be more clear in the following months.
For now, have an happy new year!" Rhye
