Let's Play Sid Meier's Civilization!
« on: May 03, 2009, 11:50:50 am »

Yep'
Another Sid Meier game, this time it's

Civilization 4.

Its not linear, so you don't have to follow a certain tech tree or religion. There are also 18 civilizations, each with a leader (Some have two leaders to pick). The leaders and empires are stated here in horrible ASCII art.

Spoiler: EMPIRES (click to show/hide)
You start with a settler. Pretty much it. He will be the start of your empire, by building the first city, which we have to find a name for. I'll be playing in a random creation of large land masses called "continents". The religions are also a option in the game, being Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Taoism. I won't start at the beginning of one of the religions, but if favor prefers, I'll probably head towards the religion techwise.

There are 9 difficulties. From easiest to lowest, they are : Settler, Chieftain, Warlord, Noble, Prince, Monarch, Emperor, Immortal, and Deity. I'll be playing from Warlord. You guys can decide what the empire and leader can be. Also, first town name should be thought of. Anyways, not much else to say, except...

LETS PLAY!

 I propose being Bismark, the German choice.

 How are you supposed to destroy the world otherwise?

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

No, lets name the first town "City"

Also, since theres o-so many empires and leaders, I say I put in a poll, or probably choose random for the sake of everybody.

And once you run out of space for "New"'s, add Neo, then New.
EX: Neo New City

Should I start the game now?
My inability of patience is hurting me like a emo hurts himself.

[historical pedant]Gah. Alexander was a Macedonian barbarian! A Macedonian barbarain! Not a Greek. They should have replaced him with Pericles, leader of Athens during the Golden Age. Not some barbarian from Macedon! Gah.[/historical pedant]

Embarking on a brutal campaign of world conquest with Gandhi has its strong points though.
