Amusing moments in Civ IV

[FenrysWulf]

I can't help but chuckle when I see a message that says "Saladin converts to Judaism." It also amuses me when pikemen run up to my tank, stand in front of the gun, and are subsequently blown away.

 

[vinstafresh]

I tried to make peace with Roosevelt and he replied: 'America does not negotiate with terrorists!'

He did want peace though, if I offered him my second-best city... I grew tired of his arrogance and crushed him

I had to laugh in a game I just finished 20 minutes ago when the Arabs threw 15 frigates at one battleship I had. The Battleship lost only 1.0 point in the 15 battles That destroyed their entire navy in one turn.

it's interesting to point that it actually "almost" happened to the spanish in real life

Well I've found in a lot of ways in every game I play, it has a rather peculiar way of replicating what has happened in our history. This is a bloody great game!

yes, now, when playing a terra map, it even simulate almost accurately the colonization... it's a huge advance I think (for variety of gameplay)

 

[The czar]

I find it funny when I refuse to give into demands of an unpopular nation and the leader says "no one listens to me" (or something alone the lines of that) after he demands a tech from me and i say no, heh-- I almost feel sorry for him.

 

[Yoshua]

I love it when I have a city celebrate "We love the Despot Day". While this may tell me that I am perhaps neglecting my civics techs, part of me just wants to play all the way to the modern era with despotism so I can keep giggling whenever that pops up.

 

[Jedoc]

I had a game where all the civilizations except for Montezuma were on the same large continent. After unifying my continent under Russian rule, I finally had time to seek out the ugly duckling of civilizations. Thanks to all our tech trading, I ended up landing several shiploads of tanks into what amounted to the Aztec middle ages. You'd think that after the first half-dozen cities, the horribly mismatched battle animations would stop being funny. But you know, they really don't.

My favorite so far: "Napoleon converts to Taoism"

 

[Polopapolo]

I really enjoy playing as the Inca or the Aztecs and wiping out the technologically inferior English, spanish and French!
