View Full Version : Giant Death Robots

Here's what I want, Giant Death Robots, I don't care what they have to do to get them into the game, but there must be giant death robots. And there must be a wide variety of giant death robots, there should be plasma cannon wielding giant death robots. Ones that just pound things with their giant metal fists. Oh, and you should differentiate between good robots and bad robots. Oh, and some of them should transform, like in autobots transformers. I really don't care if the "history" is accurate or if it's "realistic" I just want really big giant huge death robots.

Oh, and the robots must have awesome names like "Mega-destructomator" or "Carnage-bot 7000." Now all of these giant death robots must be anthropomorphic, because that's the ONLY form for giant death robots (although they can transform into other shapes).

Now, more about the specialized giant death robots: You'd have your chief megazord type robot, so huge it takes a whole team of power rangers to control it! They'd be mega-giant death robots that can take out cities merely by walking in close proximity to them! And they can disassemble to form a bunch of smaller (yet still giant) death robots. You'd also have transforming robots, because with transforming robots there's more than meets the eye, you'd have robots in disguise! They'd transform either into automobiles or giant animals. The giant animals could run really fast, but they'd have no weapons until they transformed into the anthropomorphic shape. The automobile ones could travel unseen into a city then from the inside lay down destruction on the grandest of scales! Also, there'd be ones that shoot out missiles from long range, and they'd be all cocky because they don't have to be directly involved in the battle, sort of a comic relief from all that awesomeness! Then there'd be these really slow really heavily armored fat robots, all the other robots will be laughing at it's mega-slow rate, but then when it finally gets close enough, it shoots out the biggest most powerful weapons in the game, then all the former laughing robots would be nothing more than a pile of molten scrap! Oh and there should be some robots that are specialized for deep-sea fighting, they'd walk on the ocean floor, and would fire torpedoes and can with stand pressures that would make the makers of the Alvin jealous!

Oh and as your technology improves you could have better and better death robots. Perhaps you'd start out with a steam powered mega mechanical iron monster that shoots out cannons and stuff and their either driven by mustache twirling villains who enjoy chaining golden haired virgins to train tracks (that's also got to be included in the game), or cowboys (or perhaps outlaws). Later on you'd get gas powered ones that shoot out new fangled machine guns these are run by mad scientist types. After that you'd get nuclear powered ones powered by a transplanted brain that fire laser cannons. Then we'd get the fusion ones which shoot out superheated plasma and are run by a computer-brain, these have ion engines and can fly through space and battle other giant space robots, evil blobs that go arggh, or space pirates (Which will be a MAJOR component to the game). Then you'd get the antimatter powered ones that can turn invisible and teleport and travel in hyperspace and visit other worlds where you can battle giant alien death robots.

Now you may be thinking "well, that's nice but how big would the giant robots be?" Well, I'd say they'd have to be about 200 feet tall or taller to begin with so that they can crush most buildings under their feet. It would get bigger and bigger as time progresses though and in the later eras you'd have robots that are easily 2 miles tall!

Now these robots would have awesome battles with each other in beautiful rendering so that you can see the sheer hugeness and beauty of these metal (and later on plastic-composite) monsters. And, they'd have awesome phrases when the fight like "Prepare to eat 500 cubic meters of pure energy" and then the big huge cannon would fire and the amount of radiation that the computer screen would put out to show how blindingly bright it is would blind you and unless your wearing a protective lead suit permanently sterilize you (If you're male, females would just get breast cancer).

Also included in the packaging should be giant artistic posters of the giant death robots in the game, and all of them would be saying their cool phrases that they say during the game, and they'd have awesome landscapes behind them of cities that they've pulverized with their giant fists, or landscapes of other planets, or in the event of the aforementioned deep sea robots a wreaked vessel of war, perhaps a destroyer, perhaps an aircraft carrier or perhaps even a nuclear submarine oozing out green radioactive goo! Also the manual would be filled with quotes from famous movie and TV giant death robots to help set the mood.

Oh and all the songs should either be hard rock, techno, or one of those classical pieces with a whole lot of timpani parts, and they must be real loud. So loud that when you play it on anything less then stadium speakers parts would come flying off and damage everyting and everyone within a few feet! The music should give a pulse-pounding edge-of-the-seat feeling that will get you ready to fight your army of super-robots.

This really gets to the core philosophy of Civilization, fighting on a massive scale, and gives it a whole new meaning. It would sell like hotcakes, especially if it smelled like hotcakes!

Perhaps this is betraying Sid Meier's "vision" or some sort of "ideals" that you civilization folk have, but honestly the massive amount of sheer awesomeness associated with giant death robots will much more then enough to compensate for the differences.

The main problem I have is that Steam-Powered Giant Death Robots driven my mustachioed villians or cowboys seem pretty advanced for the ancient age, and obviously would not be appropriate until Steam Power was discovered. The ancient age GDRs should be made of stone and wood and rope, with lots of huge wooden pulleys. They would be very slow and make lots of creaking, grinding noises, but you better run when you see one coming.

No man can stand up to the power of a Giant Death Robot! They'd crush the humans like the vile bugs they are! Though a robot that rail launches shiny spears composed of the strongest composite materials around and sharpened to a point so fine that it makes a hair look like like a football stadium would be a wonderful idea!

No, robots must be made of metal or at least a plastic composite, you're idea is stupid, in fact all of the loser ages should be wiped out of the game, we don't need them to have a good time!

Well, shield costs detract from the awesomeness of the game, honestly what does a shield have to do with production? Production will be measured in I-beams. Huge hunks of high-quality carbon steel alloys, now that's what I call production! And of course there will be UUs, the Japs can have their mecha-godzilla type things, and the Americans will have Autobots Transformers, and the French will have the earliest UU, the Iron Crusher, a massive hunk of deadly iron from the twisted genius that is Gustave Eiffel! And customizability? That'll be there too, you'll be able to go to a screen where you can add weapons and stuff to your robot! As for the technology it will all be using awesome names, no sissy crap like "Ecology" and "Economics" that's for babies, the technologies will be like "Superheated Plasma" and "Ultrahard Steel," and you get to see the scientist in his lab talk about it, and he'll be the mad scientist type with the crazy hair, and you'll see all kinds of awesome 3D rendered equipment in the background like proton accelerators and nuclear reactors!

Oh and btw the abbreviation "GDR" is awesome

I doubt even a Giant Death Robot could withstand the awesome power of Giant Radioactive Monkeys on pogo-sticks.Pah, one blast of superheated plasma from a Narwhal 3000 would reduce your beloved monkey to nothing but vapor!

But it's not a tottaly dumb idea. I see the creativity.Boring?!?! The only thing that's boring in this game would be the underground robots that tunnel behind enemy lines and pop up through the ground in a surprise attack!

First off your idea isn't awesome because motherships suck compared to Giant Death Robots. Second, you only built one and the don't fight each other just go around destroying other civs, what's the fun in that? None, a bitter struggle between multiple civs in a web of alliances and intrigue is WAY better. So why don't you peddle your lame idea somewhere else?

Hmm...I registered a month after you, and I've never even been warned. ;)

What object is "it" refering to? Pronoun use is good, but only if it's easy to tell what the pronoun stands for. I can think of two possibilities for what your pronoun refers to: my idea or regular civilization. Please specify "it" so I can further dicuss/belittle your point.

Godzilla and Mothra are beasts; beasts are for the crude and unrefined! A sophisticated person would have the understanding that nothing is superior to Giant Death Robots. Big animals are messy, stupid, ugly and made of weak weak flesh; Giant Death Robots are clean (some are gritty, but that's different), often superintelligent, marvels of artistic creativity, and made of the strongest metals (and in some cases plastic composite or some awesome nanotechnologically created protetective sheath)!

Pink tiny fluffy benevolent with healing powers GIANT DEATH ROBOTS
thats what this game needs.No Way! If they are tiny they are not giant and hence cannot be Giant Death Robots. If you want something tiny, go play with your miniture doll house with your cute little dollies, but if you want something awesome you'll have to go big! Also fluffiness is not allowed either; the whole point of Giant Death Robots is to be towers of metal (and in some cases plastic composite or some awesome nanotechnologically created protective sheath). Fluffiness makes that smooth technological look impossible! Lastly benevolence is not what we need, what we need is malevolence!

However, a robot with healing powers would be awesome. It would be a robot that can fix other robots with its massive arc-welder hand which it could also use as a weapon. It could walk up to other Giant Death Robots and zap their circuitry making them all crazy!

or how about iGDR's (invisible GIANT DEATH ROBOTS) that can be produced every 3 turns by the iiGDRpe3tf (invisible invisible GIANT DEATH ROBOTS production every 3 turns facility) small wonder? First off, there are no small wonders when it comes to Giant Death Robots! Second off, invisable robots will exist from the modren age and beyond; they use microcameras and stuff! As for the stupid abbreviation and facility ideas, they won't be incorperated as the abbreviations aren't awesome sounding and the facility defeats the purpose of having customizable robots!


You know Steam Power is far too long to wait for Giant Death Robots. Once you have mysticism, you should be able to call upon the power of the gods to create Giant Death Robots made of stone or wood or something like that. We don't need the earlier "loser ages." It all starts in the industrial age eschewing all that garbage that the other ages had! Perhaps if you've read all my posts here you'd understand that! Also no gods can create Giant Death Robots, for Giant Death Robots are gods!

See, that's just stupid. For the following reasons:
1. It's obviously made up! I use stuff based on actual science. You just string random words together. Random is not cool especially for machines that do things so precise and accurately that they would make a Swiss watchmaker weep!
2. It contains the word "gargle", gargle is what puny humans do to remove the foul aftertaste of blood when they cough it up after being struck down by a Giant Death Robot! This is word for puny humans with thier weak flesh and fragile bones. No, the words composing a Giant Death Robot's name must be high-tech, sleek, robust, grand and definitly strong. There is no room for weaklings in this game save a shallow grave!
3. It contains only capital letters. That's just plain wrong!
4. It's too long. Stringing too many awesome words/prefixes/suffixes together and it loses its effect. I call it "inverse awesomality." That is when awesome words are strung together for no purpose the become inversely awesomal that is by cramming in more awesome words you actually detract from its level of awesomeness. This is because it begins to sound forced and stupid! Your phrase suffers greatly from inverse awesomization and so is inferior. It shouldn't take someone an awesomologist to figure that out!

So an Enemy Giant Death Robot would blast it to bits, but then after a couple weeks it will have completly rebuilt itself. Then it would sneak up behind the enemy robot twist its neck 180 degrees breaking all kinds of cords and stuff and then when it's face to face say "Remember Me?" and let go and the enemy robot twitches and writhes on the ground for a minute and then gets vaporized!

Well thats all I can think of now.I know I've mentioned laser weaponry before, but I may have neglected to put down gattling guns. Either way they both will be there.

But I think I know what I want him to make if I win.Silly Neomega! Ninja-bots can't become Samauri-bots! Ninja-bots have no honor! Ninja-bots are sneaky assassin GDRs that move very quickly and are invisable due to the use of microcameras! They sneak up from behind and take you out quickly! Samauri-bots are quite different; they have a code of honor and so will not squish cities and slay the local population. They are better armored but slower than Ninja-bots and are very skilled on the open battlefield. Now in terms of composite type robots those have been allready discussed and shall be present in the game!

2. It's awesome, we've got robots that do really cool things and say really cool things!
3. It has better graphics, that's right it will be the most beautifully rendered 3d game ever created. Oh, and don't whine about system requirements. It's not my fault that mommy and daddy bought you a crappy computer!
4. It'll come with Giant Death Robot posters! Not only can you play with Giant Death Robots on your computer but you'll have posters to spruce up your room with, and stickers too!

I have a idea for Russias UU. It will be a nuclear robot called X-05 Stalin. It will shoot nukes and enemys.Sorry, but that's not how it is going to be. See, when the Neo-Soviets take over Russia and start the great nuclear apocolypse which ends up destroying most of the world they are prepared for the ensuing carnage with the "Harvester." It's te heaveist death robot of the era with armor designed to withstand nuclear blasts. It's primary weapon is a high powered EMP that devestates the functions of most enemies. It's secondary a standard laser cannon. It's tertiary weapon is a giant finely sharpened sickle which use to mow down cities and ocassionally Giant Death Robots.

Perfection in the Nuclear Apocalypse,you speak of? What new techs will be in this age?Oh, lot's of stuff. A lot of burrowing robots and Deap sea robots come into play as only the heaviest armored robots like the aforementioned Harvester can survive on the surface. It's a time where robots stop being just surface dwellers and tap in to the ground and sea below!

ok now this is honest question

if u have nukes on this thing how do u get around poultion everywhere what just who cares and keep goin, Oh, when nuclear warfare occurs everything gets all weird and desert-like and eerie looking. Cities start going underground and underwater and the game moves into the Post-Nuclear Apocolypse Age.

(not every unit in the game would be a robot thing) That's where you're wrong!

They could could be "mini nukes" or low yield nuclear warheads which would have only a fraction of the pollution and radiation caused by regular warheads.That's true, but a full nuclear exchange is pretty much inevitable in the game. You can't be a weak peacnik forever!

The reason, because it has new and inspired stuff! No previous GDR game as the scope of the history of GDRs as Civ 4 will have. This game is by far above all other games involving GDRs. As for gay, there are two connotations, both incorrect. Giant Death Robots are not lighthearted save the occasional scout or artillery bot. Giant Death Robots are not hmosexual because they have no sexuality, they're robots, not people, silly! Robots do not have genders!

Just because I use and adapt ideas from other games doesn't make it a rip-off, nitwit!

After the great nuclear era what will come? Will mankind and GDRs get out of this age?Yes, there will be the fusion age, where robots start flying and in the end go into space with ion engines (you'll begin to see the emergence of a new Civ called "Space Pirates" in this era).

Then we see hyperdrive in the anitmatter age and your robots can travel at hyperspeed, battle alien GDRs and teleport.

Then comes the secret age beyond, which is an age beyond the antimatter age, the contents of it are a secret. That's why it's called the secret age beyond.

Will there be any humn troops?
No, because humans are made of weak weak flesh.

Will there still be farms and roads?Yeah, but those are built automatically, you need to be concentrating on building GDRs not infastructure!

The problem is how we can differenciate good GDR's from bad GDR's(as Perfection himself had pointed out). I mean, there will be some code of honor or something? Will the GDR's be programmed to act on a moral code as humans do?

What principles will GDR's follow to? Thermodynamics? Philosophy? Remember: a good warrior has studied the Art of War(as Sun Tsu himself pointed out) and knows when and how to strike.

Will be a Giant Great Wonder called Giant Death Robots Robotic Military Academy?

Will be a Military Law that Giant Death Robots will follow, such as guilty for treason, Medal for the best Giant Death Robot in the battlefield?

Ummm, we get the point that you don't like the idea. You don't have to restate it in hundreds of different ways, once is enough! And anyways it can't be better than Civ, it will be Civ!

The problem is how we can differenciate good GDR's from bad GDR's(as Perfection himself had pointed out). I mean, there will be some code of honor or something? Will the GDR's be programmed to act on a moral code as humans do?Perhaps there could be some sort of code of honor among "protector/good" Giant Death Robots. They would kill less people when taking over and would be fair and likable. The evil ones would be sneaky and devious. We'd use them in more subversive actions. They might slay defenseless towns and pound things into the ground for the joy of pounding things into the ground.

What principles will GDR's follow to? Thermodynamics? Philosophy? Remember: a good warrior has studied the Art of War(as Sun Tsu himself pointed out) and knows when and how to strike. Remember, the early Giant Death Robots are only as moral as thier human controllers, toward the mid atomic age with the invention of "Cybernetics" we see the first sentient ones, run by a hybrid robot/human mind. Eventually we get to "Artifical Nueral nets" and we get artificial intellignce. These would be like humans in hving been programed to have emotions. I suppose they will have The Art of War, but that really won't be too much a part of the game!

Will be a Giant Great Wonder called Giant Death Robots Robotic Military Academy?No, I think it will be a Giant Small wonder.

Will be a Military Law that Giant Death Robots will follow, such as guilty for treason, Medal for the best Giant Death Robot in the battlefield? I suppose so. Good Robots may defect if you are cruel, especially to the city they were from (The usually have good repport with thier builders)

This was funny to begin with. I think you've gone a little off the deep end.Depth to an idea adds clarity and more insight, nitwit!

STOP POSTING IRRELAVANT REMARKS OVER AND OVER AGAIN AKA SPAM :gripe: [pissed]
If thats not clear enough the forum rules clearly define spam as
Spam is considered posting topics or messages on our forums that contain no point, relevance, or contain subject matter that doesn't directly allow other member participation. Topics directed to a particular user, posting several times consecutively as an appendage to ONE post, and posts in threads that have NOTHING to do with the subject matter are all considered spam and will be deleted on sight. Contributing to/or intentionally posting spam will not be tolerated.
Posting in this thread certainly won't make it go away, so if you have nothing constructive to say then don't say it! We all know your opposed to this idea so there is really no point in posting. This is the last time I will respond to your annoying and consistently similar remarks.

They could easily destroy their creators and the rest of the human race.Well, emotions start as human emotions when they are controlled by humans but gradually it shifts over to cybernetics and eventually full robotitics and the emotions become more specialized. Now with sentient GDRs a robotic overthrow is possible but they, being loyal to your civ, will tranfer your conciousness to a computer so you can join them. You can try to foster robotic control, or you can try to suppress it, both sides have thier advantages.

You just recruit a few for piloting duties before "Cybernetics" and "Neural Net Processors".Well, in the very beginning you're just a man in a GDR, but in the end you are the GDR. Sort of like how robocop started out with part of a human mind.

The point og GDR is their awesomness, magnificence and omnipotence. Reducing their actions to a set of cheap moralistic subdivisions simply undermines their original attributes.
Fair and likeable!!! These are GDR not Elves. If you decide to unleash the power of say a...METAMORHPIC ANIHILATOR upon unsuspected civilians you expect no more than total destruction.
Sneaky and devious!!! What is that now? Saruman on acid? A GDR needs not to be neither sneaky-the sheer size of the thing (even with partial cloacking) contradicts that. Deviousness OTOH is not bad but should be an integrated ability of all GDR.

Silly Garbarsardar, the great moral devide between good and evil Giant Death Robots is vital to the nature of Giant Death Robots! Consider the Autobots Tranformers, they are respectful and kind, yet Optimus Prime still has major Ass-Kickage! The morality of Giant Death Robots is of major importance, like it or not it is a major component to the whole field of robot mechanics!

As for sneakiness, consider that certain robots have invisability, radar jammers, transformability or other deceptive traits. These allow them to be sneaky.

Of course all of these subsequent posts of the original are clarifications to the original theme. So while these posts may not be as exciting it is merely because I'm talking about the nitty gritty rather than the awesome grandiose Giant Death Robot theme!

An Army!? What GDR would be so lame you would need an Army of them to destroy 4 30 pop-cities. You must be thinking of Mechwarrior(tm). Maybe there could be an army of SDR(Small Death Robots) that combine to form a GDR.

With the second coming of christ in the 24th Century(Futurama) it becomes easy for GDRs to walk on water. Before then battles are below the water or slightly above with rocket packs(preferabbly back mounted b/c feet mounted rocket packs are lame).

Civ is based on history. No it's based on fighting on a massive scale! History was just an ends to a means. I'm replacing it with something far superior!

A future age would be cool though, and perhaps robots should be included, but transformers and zords? Absolutly, Giant Death Robots trump everything! They're big, they're strong, they say awesome phrases, what more could you want?

@Colonel, here's an excellent safety tip. Bus drivers often have poor eyesight and so won't see you when you're crossing in front of the bus. To maximize visability crouch down as low as possible and cross as close to the front of the bus as you can.

GDRs should be armed with cannons so big that they could wipe out a Death Star, and they should have gimundoİ chainguns that rip everything else to shred.Well if there was such a thing as Death stars the later era plasma cannons and antimatter weapons could easily take them out! Chainguns will deffintly be in a lot of the earlier GDRs.

Not really, the main purpose of GDRs is to fight other GDRs not to squish puny humans.

Perfection, I must admit that your idea has been crafted out of undeniable wit and intelligence. You have created a species out of your boredom and you deserve a lot of credit. Not everyone is this easily able to manipulate genes and physical characteristics to their own liking. Not everyone is able to manipulate the minds of so many into believe that this idea would work. Perfection, if you were any less of a person, this thread wouldn't have lasted past the first post.

Now back on topic. If the main purpose of GDRs is to fight other GDRs...What happens when a country is the first to build them. Then wouldn't worldwide destruction happen and the game be over, thus minimizing the fairness of these great weapons of destruction?

Thanks for the awesome complement, when I take over the world, I'll make sure you get a cushy fun job with quite a bit of power.

Now as for your question, that's why Civ 4 starts in the steam age (eschewing all the "loser ages") at the dawn of GDR technology with the creation of the first incarnation of GDRs. In the beginning you battle it out with massive steam powered iron behomeths!

Do all the countries get GDRs at the same time then? I thought France was the first to get GDRs and if other countries don't have GDRs what would France do with them if they aren't supposed to squish puny humans?
when I take over the world, I'll make sure you get a cushy fun job with quite a bit of power. Hmm... wonder what job I'll get.

@LOVE_Magiska - Yes, you may become one of my pet weevils, however, weevils only live for three weeks...
You also have to wear a very small leash.

Will there be naval GDRs? Like hugandoİ floating robots that fire badass torpedoes at each other? Will there be submersible GDRs? What about flying GDRs? Has this been covered? Will there be mining GDRs? Missile GDRs? Nuclear GDRs? GDRs with gimundoİ electromagneticphotonicbalemic rail guns? Artillery GDRs? The possibilities are endless...

Weapon Names -
The "Sh!t its coming right for me 9 and a half"
The "Diskabobulator 450000"
The "Big gun 2"
The "Monster Masher 8.7"
The "Really big smoking thing"
The "Thunderizer"
The "Exploderizor"
The "Cauterizer"
The "Energizer"

What kind of job will I get? Can I become your majesty's royal weevil circus manager?

(Hugandoİ and Gimundoİare also not copyrighted by Mr. Will but he'd like to think they were. If you use this word without permission, he will sick his weevils on you. You have been warned!)

What job will I get Perfection? Can I rule Europe or something?I let you rule some village in a third world country.

I wonder what will happen to Colonel when you take over the Earth.Two words: Abu Gharib

Will there be mining GDRs? Missile GDRs? Nuclear GDRs? GDRs with gimundoİ electromagneticphotonicbalemic rail guns? Artillery GDRs? The possibilities are endless...If you've read the thread then you'll know that I've specificly mentioned submerible, floating, flying, missile, nuclear, rail gun wielding, artillery and mining GDRs. I didn't mention torpedos, but they'll be in most naval ones.


Weapon Names -
The "Sh!t its coming right for me 9 and a half"
Too long, not awesome
The "Diskabobulator 450000"
Overused, misspelled, to large a number.
The "Big gun 2"
It's okay, but I'd prefer to call it just the "BFG"
The "Monster Masher 8.7"
That I like, but I'd call it 9.7
The "Really big smoking thing"
No, not awesome
The "Thunderizer"
Excuse me while I vomit.
The "Exploderizor"
Lots of thing make other things explode, it's not descriptive
The "Cauterizer"
That has connotations with human flesh, therefore it is weak
The "Energizer"
copywrited

What kind of job will I get? Can I become your majesty's royal weevil circus manager?Fine, but don't expect any funds to aid in your weevil thing.

I dont like any robot in Civ game!!!!!!!!!!!!!


______________the end_______________Then go play "Barbie's Dream House" or one of those stupid games with the sickeningly cute japenese cartoon animal thingies and leave us alone, lamoid!

How the deuce did this thread get so long when innocent threads about frozen stop signs get shut down almost instantly in the OT? Given the context of which section it is in, this thread is far spammier.Because, it has double ultimate awesomeness. It has the ultimate awesomeness of Giant Death Robots, and the ultimate awesomeness Perfection, Lord of the Awesome. Together they form an ultimatly awesome thread of utter awesomosity. This makes it 100% antispam the only problem is is some people just can't understand it!

Perfection, will GDRs be destroyed in combat, or simply damaged badly and stumble back to their GDR lair to recuperate.Both can occur.

Yes, you're right. I'm sorry. What was I thinking, spamming a spam thread like that? I should have come up with some on-topic spam instead. :rolleyes:Just because you don't understand/like the thread doesn't mean you have to try to ruin it. Your objections are noted, if you have anything more to say say it, otherwise leave.
