Civ V trailer lacks mind-blowing turn-based action sequences

The trailer for Civilization V features what's quite likely the opening cinematic for the game. We can sort of feel 2K Games and Firaxis on the decision not to show in-game footage, as clips of the venerable turn-based strategy game don't really deliver a very sexy initial impact; however, some videos exploring the hextreme overhaul of the map and other changes implemented in the stalwart series' gameplay would be nice for the future.

Now to console some of the guys on staff. They were really hoping for Civilization Revolution II this year.
