Ranged bombardment challenges you to develop clever strategies to guarantee victory on the battlefield.DIPLOMACY: Negotiate with some of history’s most cunning rulers, each with a well-crafted plan for victory.

To clarify:
The game changes significantly throughout the extra expansions, with new concepts being brought in that add extra richness to the game. The extra maps and races are also quite cool. One final point, once you have been playing for a bit (assuming you like it), you will want to try some of the different mods that people have made for the game - and many of these mods require one/both of the expansions for compatibility.

When you buy it they send you box with cd and code. You use the code to activate the game on Steam. So I assume once you get game you can send him the key code to activate on Steam.
Civilization it's a video game that would line up with his love of /r/Futurology well!
