Are you a

freak?
Do you like ICBM?

or

?

vmxa · Apr 28, 2005, 11:04 AM

No, too messy, too late in the game, global warming stinks.

thetrooper · Apr 28, 2005, 11:16 AM

Most of my games are over before I get to build them.

TyranusBonehead · Apr 28, 2005, 12:11 PM

I usually get ICBM's so late in the game that I don't want to use them, just to be using them. I would however, like to get that viceral feeling of joy from pounding the snot out of the AI.

Bluemofia · Apr 28, 2005, 12:22 PM

Only when I have SDI up and it is me vs another AI. Especially regicide.

777 · Apr 28, 2005, 12:35 PM

I do like devastating effect of nuke and its symbol of power but I never use them. At that point when I got them, game is usally solved.

Oh, It's a good feeling, just nuke them. Do it now. Hehe.

There should be an option to launch all your nukes at the same time! Hehe. Say you have 15 nukes and your opponent has only 15 cities, just select all the sites you want nuked, click ok, and watch all 15

hit every single city of your opponent. Oh, that would be glorious.

More cooler would be if civ maps would be 3d and sphere so you could so how missiles fly around there world.

Mordack · Apr 28, 2005, 02:46 PM

some of your score is based on nuclear weapons, right?

Rambuchan · Apr 28, 2005, 02:46 PM

I only use them for fun ie. when the game is going to end the next go. I've never needed to use them as part of a war campaign, just entertainment. So I'd be a

It counts as POWER, which is a unofficial version of score. But you haven't more "score" with them. Score is territory+hapiness+future techs

Corvex · Apr 28, 2005, 05:02 PM

Oh, but there's nothing quite so satsifying as hearing that ominous wind blowing through the ruins of your enemy's city, is there? Even still, I don't usually use them unless someone else has (which they never do), or my empire is in very real danger of collapsing if I don't (and even then, I like to have SDI)

Satisfaction is taking two ICBM's and obliterating a 300+ unit SOD that is advancing towards your borders. >=o)

mastertyguy · Apr 28, 2005, 05:13 PM

I just saw I didn't say I am against. NO NUKES. Used them once in civ2. They were better in civ2.

Dark Russell · Apr 28, 2005, 08:28 PM

I hate them so much I modded them to be long range cruise missiles...

Falcon02 · Apr 28, 2005, 11:16 PM

Stockpile nukes, and if I get bored, save nuke the world for 15 turns or so, then restart once the entire world is a radioactive wasteland which goes through 5000 Global warming events per turn

eldar · Apr 29, 2005, 05:50 AM

I went through a phase where I'd nuke every enemy capital the turn before launching my spaceship.

rujikin · May 03, 2005, 11:21 AM

I have never got to launch a nuke

I usually destroy everyone before then
