[QUOTE=Frankess;38815101]That is how I felt when I found out that Genghis Khan is my neighbour: [video=youtube;wRnSnfiUI54]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRnSnfiUI54&feature=youtu.be&t=15s[/video] This prick changes his mood each turn! War - Friendly - War - Friendly - War - Friendly.[/QUOTE] You think that's bad, try being next to gandhi while having a tiny but teched-up military and extremely positive foreign relations. Thank you for helping me with these spices --> The fuck are you doing to my potential long-term investments, I will spearman the shit out of you --> Man you're so swift at taking cities --> The fuck did you just say about my spy? I will skullfuck you with a goddamn elephant. And then all of china falls in one fell swoop and he's just permanently friendly. You know, until atomic age.
Wasn't there someone here that play a game just made of entirely of Ghandi's?
[QUOTE=TheJoker;38815561]Wasn't there someone here that play a game just made of entirely of Ghandi's?[/QUOTE] I expect it ended in Nuclear Armageddon.
Finally went back and finished the first game I ever started. I played as china, and had nearly and entire continent to myself with only two city-states. I only managed to move to one other continent after Askia declared war on and took over Venice, who I was friends with at the time. So, I took back venice, and three of his cities before he gave me a shitload of stuff for a peace treaty. Then Ramkamhaeng and I kicked his ass after the treaty ended, because he was a douchebag that kept declaring war on everyone. Then afterwards, Rammy and I were in first and second place, and all the other countries were in the 700s, ranking wise. It was me and Rammy, we each had our own continent to ourselves, and all the other countries were on the same continent and constantly going to war with each other. Eventually, Ramkamhaeng decided to declare war on them to take more land, but then I realized I was able to build a fucking space rocket, so after a while, I launched the rocket and won. This game is great, I really should get the GOTY edition.

[QUOTE=Derposaurus;38818247]Forget GOTY, Gods and Kings is the only DLC that you need[/QUOTE] I agree with this, don't have it yet but I can't wait to pick it up.
Had two civs in my game today display the "Emotionless" status. Cool.
just fended off montezuma's siege on my city using 1 swordsman and a chariot archer against his jaguars and archers :v:
[QUOTE=Kinversulath;38821013]Had two civs in my game today display the "Emotionless" status. Cool.[/QUOTE] Emotionless? What?
[QUOTE=Derposaurus;38818247]Forget GOTY, Gods and Kings is the only DLC that you need[/QUOTE] doesn't GOTY include Gods and Kings? Becuase on steam GOTY upgrade is only $20, where G&K is $30
[QUOTE=Schmaaa;38822563]doesn't GOTY include Gods and Kings? Becuase on steam GOTY upgrade is only $20, where G&K is $30[/QUOTE] God's and Kings came out after the GOTY so it doesn't include it. Just wait for the Steam Winter Sale and it will probably be 50% - 75% off
[QUOTE=total_noob;38822601]God's and Kings came out after the GOTY so it doesn't include it. Just wait for the Steam Winter Sale and it will probably be 50% - 75% off[/QUOTE] oh, thanks for telling me. I was gonna get the GOTY because I thought it included G&K.
[QUOTE=Schmaaa;38822632]oh, thanks for telling me. I was gonna get the GOTY because I thought it included G&K.[/QUOTE] Well if you don't already have Civ V you might as well get the GOTY because it's got quite a few extra characters and scenarios.
[QUOTE=total_noob;38822670]Well if you don't already have Civ V you might as well get the GOTY because it's got quite a few extra characters and scenarios.[/QUOTE] Except the Korean and Wonders of the ancient world pack, which IMO, are good enough on their own.
[QUOTE=Derposaurus;38822373]Emotionless? What?[/QUOTE] It's essentially a bizarre "glitch" state. In this case, Russia and Mongolia had been conquered early in the game and were liberated after I had researched Satellites. I could contact them, but I had never actually met them so they ended up stuck in this bizarre limbo. EDIT: I knew being sandwiched between Attila, Nebuchadnezzar and Caesar was not going to go well. All three declare war in three successive turns. Thankfully I only lost Lyon to the Huns, and they ended up razing it so I'll just take the territory back anyway. And now I know I need to build up my military.
[QUOTE=total_noob;38822670]Well if you don't already have Civ V you might as well get the GOTY because it's got quite a few extra characters and scenarios.[/QUOTE] I bought Civ V vanilla because I didn't want to pay $50 for a game at the time, but I'm deciding whether or not to buy GOTY or G&K. I'm waiting for the steam sales either way, so I might wind up getting both.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cl8TLFmNtU4[/media] Look at this shit. Fucking look at it. The bastard got to 42 happiness with some 20~ cities.Religion, what the fuck are you doing?
So, wait till the Winter Sale and get G&K? Also, what mods would you suggest?
[QUOTE=ForcedDj;38848780]So, wait till the Winter Sale and get G&K? Also, what mods would you suggest?[/QUOTE] G&K is £9.99 on Gamefly at the moment
[QUOTE=total_noob;38848889]G&K is £9.99 on Gamefly at the moment[/QUOTE] United States here, and I got 50 dollars on Steam Wallet.
[QUOTE=ForcedDj;38849014]United States here, and I got 50 dollars on Steam Wallet.[/QUOTE] Wait for the sale, and buy the GOTY upgrade, G&K, and the Korean/Wonder combo-pack for the full Sid Meier's experience.
[QUOTE=ForcedDj;38848780]Also, what mods would you suggest?[/QUOTE] R.E.D. Modpack is pretty decent. Get R.E.D. - Just Ethnic Diversity if you don't want smaller units.
If you don't already have CIV V and your in the UK this is a pretty good deal [url]http://www.getgamesgo.com/product/civ-v-goty-civ-v-gk-bundle[/url] Civ V GOTY & God's and Kings for £9.99
Anyone have any suggestions for fun matches to play in this? I always end up playing 3 v 3 west vs east, or an islands map
Does anyone know if the SDK allows for total conversions? It's neat that you can create custom civs and religions etc, but can you make custom tech trees and import custom models?

That's great, thanks.
[QUOTE=total_noob;38848889]G&K is £9.99 on Gamefly at the moment[/QUOTE] I'm sure G&K was £5 during the Autumn sale, no?
