Dawn of the Middle Kingdom [DoC]

^Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

I'm going to postpone some of the post-game commentary a little bit until
I can figure out how to make .gifs on my own. (I would like to make a .gif of the replay video for everyone to see)

That being said, I think I'm going to hold off on writing another AAR until Leoreth finishes 1.9. I think some people might be a little
antsy from me not having updated The Celestial Bureaucracy in some time as well.
But I guess I can hold some voting here for which civ people want to see me play:

Spoiler :
Pick from this pool (Note: This isn't really a poll, rather, the tallies will help influence my decision when it comes time):
Persia- I've always had trouble doing Persian UHV, so I want to see if my improved skills can help me play them.
Russia- Will be Putin based if done. :)
India- Why does no one love India?
Japan- Considering it, despite the overabundance of Japan stories;
But I won't try it until Leoreth fixes the Spanish trading company.
 
I would like to see a nice Persia game for once, would be very nice and interesting. :)
 
There are gif making things online but you probably want a program like GIMP, I am not very good with GIMP though so you will have to look online if you want to know how :p
 
Yeah, Persia would be nice.
 
Persia would be awesome!
 
Done:



I learned pretty fast how to do this in Photoshop CS5.5 really quick.
It only took about 12-16 minutes or so.
Now that I think about it, these types of .gifs would be more
useful to Leoreth than just simple screenshots.
Other DoC testers, (iOnlySignIn, Fresol, jammerculture, strijder20, etc.)
if you're reading this, and you maybe want to do this,
I can either teach you how, or you can just send a batch of pictures to me,
and I'll compile them into an animated .gif.

Also, sit back and watch the pages of history unfold before your eyes. :)
 
Dawn, you going to play after the end or go for a Conquest victory/secondary victory with your next civ? I mainly just want to see how you do with the nukes on the table. :)
 
i gotta ask, where you guys get all the pony art, and whats the significance?


your gif is badass, make a thread with the details
 
Sad to this great story come to an end.
The story is dead, all hail the new story, though! :p
Tomorrow's Dawn, did you have to download any software? If so, could you tell me what software I should get?
 
Quoting myself:

So yeah, Adobe Photoshop CS 5.5.

Places to get pony art:

Equestria Daily
KnowYourMeme
Ponibooru
Ponychan
Deviantart

And sure, I'll make a separate thread where I explain how to make a replay .gif.
It's a little more time consuming than just recording a video on the screen,
but it saves space on the other hand.
 
Wow, everyone just wants to see Persia, huh?

That's cool, Persia is one of my favorite civilizations.
Plus, it'll give me a chance to give Frank Miller what's comin' to him.

(I respect his artistic talent and his rendering skills, as an artist & inker,
but I can't tolerate his writing or his skewed beliefs and tendencies)

Alright, Persia it is. But I'll wait till 1.9 is completed to do it.
 
Persia after respawning. We already have at least one ancient Persia story, but not an Iran story.

That was really helpful. Only I don't spam click Prnt Scrn though.

Plus they even have a Pony version of Danbooru? Wow. Everything has really been Pony-fied. Seems familiar...

Or perhaps it's just a Dan version of Ponibooru? :p

If you don't already know what it is, then that is great. There can be some disturbing stuff there. Please do not go there. I just go there for The Flower that Revolves with the Sun. Forget what I said, except for the previous sentence. TFtRwtS is pretty amazing.
