My last game of CiV. Playing as Darius, doing pretty well. But the other leaders are, kinda wierd (might be the random personalities, but I'm not sure which one has the envy trait). Every now and then best buddies Arabia and America denounce me, with sporadic comments how my empire sucks (Like say my economy, while I have a big steady income and a rather big pile of gold, or how I'm uncultured, when I have a rather large number of policies (Might be even first in that regard)). Monotezuma likes to go to war with me on a regular basis, gets his troops wiped on the nearest city, then demands nothing less than my whole empire for a peace treaty, he usually cools off after a while, so we sign white peace and he's suddenly very friendly with me.
Also Napoleon, after two thousand years of silence (we met and never spoke again) randomly barges in and says he doesn't like my face.
I'm also ithching to go to war with someone, so I'll just wait for the US to make a misstep, then proceed to systematically wipe them off the face of the Earth.
My previous game of Civilization V went something like this.
>Be Alexander the Great
>Have Genghis Khan and Napoleon as neighbors.
>Genghis Khan covets my land and settles a city right near Sparta.
>My army of hoplites and companion cavalry decimate his forces, take his three cities as puppets, and he is removed from the game.
>Napoleon covets my land and settles a city right near the Karakorum.
>My army of hoplites, swordsmen, and companion cavalry decimate his forces, take his three cities as puppets, and he is removed from the game.
>Remaining neighbors are five city states - Dublin, Brussels, Tyre, Almaty, and someone else I forget.
>Befriend them and turn them into allies.
>Settle Corinth near Dublin, bringing my total of settled cities to three and puppet cities to six.
>Begin going towards a culture win because I'm isolationist as fuck and do not have any cities by the coast.
>I am three turns away from completing the Utopia Project
>Ramses II visits one of my puppet cities on the northern coast.
You're kind of late to the party dude.
