I want to declare war on all of them and keep it that way!

[glaciermi]

I set myself up as team 1, and everyone else as team 2.

Declared war and at war with all.

Every turn they all come begging for peace, is there something I need to do to enact permanent war?

 

[Byzantine Bomb]

You could just be a total dbag to them and eventually they won't even negotiate peace with you.

 

[Rathelon]

There used to be that option in Civ IV. You had to choose it when you set up the game, through the advanced setup. But as of yet, we don't have that option in V.

 

[Theruss]

This topic made me realize, it is kind of odd how the option of permanent war is not in the advanced game settings.

 

[Yzman]

Once every other civ starts stockpiling units and destroying you in science since they are a team, this won't be an issue.

 

[Polisurgist]

Just say no to the peace agreement?

1. Research Cost is not the same for each team, the more members in the team, the more expensive it is, however. the AI will always go for thes ame techs.. so yeah, probably chances are they are going to out-tech the single-player team.

2. THere's no such thing as "Pernament War" in regular Civilization 5, the only way to do that is to make a World Builder map and set "Pernament War", but there's no such option from within the main executable/game.

Why would anyone with any brains pursue a permanent war regardless of the expense or outcome? They would have to be nuts. Even if you do all the insults to the world to make it fight, it`ll still sue for peace if it`s clear it`s losing. The AI isn`t great, but it`s not that stupid.

It`s really an illogical request.

To those who will fight to the death and would rather die with the enemies sword in his heart rather than their quill in his bum.

Then every turn they will come to you demanding unconditional surrender

There are better games to play for this.

I think you can create a scenario in world builder that will have permawar, but that's it.

Despite your opinion, War game can sell to some people.

and I guess some people want to beat AI in the field rather than in current system of diplomacy, which isn't great.

It would be very special to play this kind of game (Permanent War)... But it's equally special to intend the "One City Challange", and advanced setup offers this possibility...

 

[Evil_Dr_V]

There is an always war option programmed into the game, but it's hidden by default. Go to CIV5GameOptions.XML (in sid meier's civilization v\assets\Gameplay\XML\GameInfo) and change
