Funny Screenshots: Part Deux

That quote is demeaning to latinamerica and we are aware of it. Reapeating it just increases the hatred for the US.

And then you wonder why the Cuban revolution happened.

No insult was intended. To me it just means don't be a bully but be prepared for whatever comes your way, which is the way that I play CIV. I aim for the peaceful victories but maintain a large army, which I mostly never use. In this case, it was just a joke about popping a guy with a club in a firearms CIV war.

Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.

Spoiler :

Why are you mad?

Why are you mad?

Maybe you're not aware of how Teddy Roosevelt engineered a revolt in Columbia so Panama would separate from it so he could build his canal? Latin America is not fond of him -- or various other presidents who did similarly unfunny things in other of their countries.

Last time I checked, Teddy has been dead for a couple of years now. In fact, he died almost 100 years ago, right?

If people are going to get pissy at a quote online because it's not from the person they're most fond of, then they should either man up and not act like cry babies or leave the internet as it's not really the place most suited for them, not with all the different people and ideas around.

Sorry for being the starter of the latest derailment.

I just become pissed everytime I hear that quote, even if it is a 100 years old. After all, all us civ-players are history fanatics, aren't we?

Just remember, the real world isn't Earth32, it's more like rhye's and fall of civilization.

I wish there aren't any more replies, but screenshots, as originally intended.

Grinding out an ugly immortal Pangaea win against Augustus (really, he won't cap). Anyway, I can across this massive navy--

8 Battleships
30 Destroyers
2 transports
1 Caravel (probably a historical museum like the USS Constitution).

All for a 6 square land locked ocean. Which reminds me - Why does the modern Roman navy have glass bottom boats? So they can see the old Roman navy.

Two well placed forts and that navy would be free.

 

[j_mie6]

yeah but is caesar really capable of doing that?

Finally, after years of intermittent playing, I think I got the conquest-oriented diplomatic strategy figured out: everyone's at war but me, yet everyone's pleased enough to be trading with me... you know where this is going...

That's impressive!

Additionally, as a side question, if I had capped Rome without taking the city (and destroying the navy), would there have been any way for me as the master to build forts in Rome's lands so the navy could break-out? I've encountered similar situations before where there are large, useful navies stuck in inland seas that could sneak through a canal.

Not unless you worldbuilder'd them in. Can't build forts in someone else's cultural space.

You can build forts on snow tiles though. I did it in a recent game where I only needed one tile to make a northern passage over the continent. Oddly, it didn't work as a canal until my culture expanded to include the fort though.

Jesus, Matthias, what's happened to your head?!

That picture is insanely great He apparently mislaid the Hungarian crown somewhere despite wearing the official robe. And he's standing in front of the Fisherman's Bastion built 400 years after his death Which mod is that? I must have it!

Apparently there is a bug that makes weapons pink. At first I thought it was supposed to be blood.

Somewhere, I imagine a republican prepared to denounce Civ already.

Just when you thought Civ couldn't possibly get more fabulous...

Missing texture file?

 

[GA econ FTW]

On the subject of pink weapons: It has been discovered that pink is the most non-violent color (yet not the most non-violet...hyuck), so, all the civvies paint their weapons pink to attempt to lull their enemies into a sense of complacancy during combat, making them less agressive and easier to kill....

Brought to you by the same Civilization R&D group that brought you the + = AH-64 Apache Gunship development kits.

Those axes are truly truly truly outrageous.
