Crazy Reasons For Going To War

I raped and pillaged my way through the Japanese with my Mongol keshiks because I couldnt stand Tokugawa's moustache. :crazyeye:
 
I once wiped out all the civs (there were 8) becuase i wanted to do some WW.
i was in a fascist goverment. :lol:
And also i concuered some stupid german city becuase i wanted the longest railroad line in the world. one straight line from the one side to the other.very cool to see
 
craziest time was when i declared on the russians.
at the time i thought i would take out a chunk of them (they were top dog at that point), that included a few coal tiles (for denial purposes). little did i know that they had a MPP with the celts, the chinese and the arabs.
i had some harrowing moments there.
now, i always check the diplo screen b4 a war.
 
After converting to communism as the Russians I thought it would appropriate to invade the Indians in order to "spread the revolution." Then I traded them for wine.
 
this probably isn't too crazy. the other day in my game a bunch of civs (some I had bribed into alliances against civs that had declared war on me) started signing trade embargos against me. So I declared war and took/razed multiple cities from each civ that signed a trade embargo even though before the embargo I considered them the "good guys"

I got into a centuries long war with the Arabs just because they planted one city on my continent after I wiped out the Babylonians and didn't have a settler ready to move into their vacated territory.

serves them right to invade your continent, if you start on different continents the A.I. has no buessenis on yours.

I declared war against the inca because they refused to grant me rights of passage. I wanted to visit the capital of the french with of few tanks. You know to deliver the final blow and trap a nation between your borders. :blush:
 
I'm currently playing the same game mentioned above (I alt+tab to firefox while the AI is making moves) I ended a war with the aztecs that while not a cakewalk for me was going relatively well, and immediately turned my units against the germans because they signed another trade embargo against me. plus I have modern armor while they still have knights and riflemen. Figure if I take them out now their cities will give me some more production capacity to rebuild and resume my war against the aztecs. the aztecs started that war and quickly lost about 5 cities to me and the chinese who I bribed took a few more. they declared war on me with a military consisting of almost all defensive units. fools
I think I'm going to take out the chinese too because they're getting weak due to fighting the aztecs
 
I always go to war over little islands. I love them! Be they a single square or a mini continent...you cant be a true Empire unless you've got little islands and colonies dotted all over the map. Ohh and I always go to war to defend the Byzantines i think they rock...perhaps i should start playing as them?
 
I was playing a huge pangea and the Zulus were back in science on an isolated island. I had MAs and they had musketmen, but I left a few tanks on the Zulu island. so when I revolted into Communism for a major war on my continent, I attacked Zulus. Just razed some their cities, for no reason.
 
Heh, I'm playing as game as Egypt on Conquests, and I kept declaring war on the Ottomans and the Iroquois for settling the gaps in my territory. An archipelago, 70 ocean, I was on a large island which looked kind of like a three fingered hand. I had all the northern part, and some of the mid-southern part. Then stupid Osman settled a key choke point area, so I took him down. That was after I discovered Iroquois on my continent to the south. Yes, my continent. I war chariot'ed them to hell and back, surprised at how good they were against them. Them and the stupid Americans kept bringing lone settlers over and settling cities right before I did (I was a few tiles away from the site). So I just ran 'em down repeatedly. Iroquois gave me some damn fine deals with GPT though.

I think once I played as China and I just let my nukes rip through the sky for the hell of it, it was quite interesting having to fight everyone at the same time.

Because they are the Ottomans.

Ottomans everywhere. If you find dem, kill dem.

heh. I prefer Ottomans. Do you play Russia?

...

because..

I like to declare war on the Russians because Catherine is an ugly fat obnoxious pig.

In a recent game the Russians declared war on me. After decimating them and razing all their cities, I declared war on the Germans because I did not want them to declare war on me.

:lol: That's a classic. I should try that one. :goodjob:

:goodjob: Damn, I have the same "fetish" lol I love to contorl little islands, it doesnt matter to me how small, they are just koll to control. Probably comes from my secret desire to actually own an island in real life, and to rule it as a nation, not just to own one privately and still be controlled by another nation. Like all the rich people do....

I know how you feel guys! I love to find a small island and place two towns there.
Which settings should I use to get the most islands?
