Five Star Gift Ideas

If your friend is a big fan of Civilization V, here are some gift ideas based on that theme:

1. The official Civilization V strategy guide book would be a great gift option. It contains detailed information on the mechanics, strategies and tactics of the game that can help players improve their gameplay.

2. Civ V T-shirt: You can buy a T-shirt or sweatshirt that has Civilization V-inspired graphics or characters. Your friend would love wearing this, especially if they're into video game culture.

3. Civilization Board Game: Giving a board game that involves strategy would be an excellent option if your friend likes Civ V since the game is all about strategy. You can get Civilization: A New Dawn Board Game, which shares a similar strategic gameplay.

4. Civilization V Complete Edition: A digital copy of the complete edition of Civilization V would be perfect for your friend if they haven't already owned the game. This edition includes all the DLC which they might not have purchased yet.

5. Civilization V themed mug: You can get customized mugs with Civilization V characters or logos. Your friend can use it for coffee, tea or any other beverage while they play Civilization V.

6. Civ V inspired book: You can also look for some similarities in fiction or non-fiction books that relate to Civilization V, could be historical books or even adventure novels that take place in a similar setting.

Or you can get her/him a star map with the date when she/he was born.
