How'd there get to be 2 teams that big?
 
Top five cities weirdness:

:dubious: eh what? Why is Yeha on there? I looked at in on the main map and it's built practically nothing. Just like a monument, harbour, and lighthouse...surely there's at least ONE of my 25+ cities that is three times it's size and has a few more wonders built worthy of that position. Or if not, at least ONE of the other hundred cities on the map.
 
That brings up the question, how is the top 5 calculated? I've seen no guide or something on that topic...
 
AFAICT, the ranking value is (CULTURE/5) + (FOOD_RATE + PROD_RATE + GOLD_RATE) * POPULATION, so my guess is the AI popped a culture bomb or two in Yeha.

Which considering the location of the city would be a ******** thing to do...not unusual for Noble AI...:p
 
Terrorists Lose
Civ4's answer to Counter-Strikes "terrorists win"

If anyone was actually insulted by that, I sincerely apologize.

I was playing around with Great People combos and discovered that combo, and thought it interesting. A few years ago when I first posted it, I gave it the title "Busted". I reposted in this new thread with the phrase that came to mind at the time. There was no racial thought behind it. I had recently been reminded of the "terrorist win" controversy for the game Counter-Strike. That came to mind when I shared what I thought to be an interesting GP combo. So I gave it the title "terrorists lose". That Civ4 Missionary made me think of osama bin laden because he looked like he had his hands tied behind his back and the Maceman and Great Engineer were escorting him as a prisoner. The Great Artist in the back looked like a judge. I thought the image to be amusing and the GP arrangement to be interesting. Then I added a title that I thought was funny.

A Muslim friend of mine was amused. He, and I, do not associate Muslim dress with terrorism. Likewise, when a contemporary terrorist parody is made, I do not think it represents all of Islam. Any racism found in something like this comes from the imagination of the viewer. It was not my intent, and it is far from my thinking. I do apologize to those who might have been truly offended. But I suggest to those trying to be PC to Get Real! Realize that only you make that pic racist. A terrorist portrayed in Muslim clothing DOES NOT imply that all of Islam is terrorist. Why does that disclaimer even have to be made? Only small minded bigots should think otherwise (I'm not calling anyone here that). Right?

As the initiator of the ensuing OT, I wanted to make that apology, explain my purpose, defend my acceptance and respect of cultural diversity, and criticize something which I think took political correctness and racial sensitivities too far. You are welcome to reply to me via PM or start a thread in the Off Topic Forums. But I'll speak no more of this here.

Post communist crisis and a depression? What luck. I did, however, win the next turn.

You want the city the congress is being held in?! You dog, you. ;) Isabella sure has some huge balls for a woman.

Just. 3 turns. Away. :sad: I was, however, successful on my second try :trophy:

Is this coded in RFC? The running with the bulls event in Madrid! :lol:

Got somethin' against the French? :cowboy:

Quite a bit of peace treaties.

Arabia sent a camel knight to go exploring and ended up capturing Korea with it. :lol:

Why was it atou-named America? :confused:

See, America, that's why you should finally open borders with someone.

picture17qf.png


Christianity and Islam on the same turn? I later learned that Arabia got lucy enough to have Makkah as a double-holy city. ( Hell of game to play as Ethiopia. )

Wait, are you saying they founded Christianity and Islam on the same turn? Must have researched one of the techs with a Great Prophet, I guess.

Christianity hasn't been founded when the Arabs started, and since Arabia starts with Thealogy and Divine Right, it founded both.
 
Oh. Shows what little I know about RFC. :p

I have a spreadsheet that has the automatic city names for all the civs in RFC. This case you have means that you've settled outside the historically accurate locations for the civ you're playing as (the plausible locations being based on actual conquests & potential conquests that were doable by the civ at some point). Rome never seeked to settle in the Americas, nor it did at any time. Since that means there are no possible city names for that area as the Romans, that could explain "America" being used as the city name.
 
Heh - I like that one - you had to hit "print screen" at exactly the right instant for that one!
LoL Yep! Took a bunch of shots to get one that worked.

I post this one because of your avatar...

:D And for that one you not only had to press "print screen" at the right moment, but you had to release the planes on intercept in the right order as well. And I notice you're building the airport. Those planes better have a lot of fuel... :)
