well here is my grunt. My friend and i wer playing Hot seat game of Civ 2 ToT, we had just enterd technology where nucks, missles, norad and missle defense systems are available. and my friend and i weer stock piling to take the last computer player out. I was attacked by 14 nukes :nuke: at the end of my friends turn. and my friend 7 times as well. my main cities we whiped out of my entier army. i had major amounts, like you could bairly distinguios beteen one unit from the other because the images wer overlaped so many times. a few turns later i built a few units, and nuked few more times. enimie comes up and bulldozes me over. and i restart from scratch on a lil 4 square island. where i was safe for a few turns, my friend soon joind me in being beaton back to the stone age. and to think this was on easy. :confused:

btw another game my friend and i played on hotseat, i attacked a city with a five, and he had two musketters and i had a tank attack the city, and i lost...that dont sound right to me...i went through 20 tanks befor i took that city. i got fed up and made a blockade and researched like the devel and got nukes waisted his but my friend and i wer victors. :king:

btw whats everybodys record of wins agenst the computer teamd up with a friend?

Sounds like a 1 in a million occurence to me. Kinda like having a pikeman beat a Howitzer.:eek:
 
It's called having a lot of time on your hands.:lol:
 
That sounds a little crazy, but the mathematics of it actually can work...I think that's where the realistic part of Civ II fails a bit.
 
I know it's not civ2 but on call to power 5 pikemen can beat a bomber! Those guys must have very long pikes!!
 
I'm not sure about this (despite the fact I own both CCTP and CTP2, I've never made it to Modern-era stuff on either), but I think that that sort of thing was fixed in CTP2.
 
Yeah the games aren't that great, they shouldn't have the right to be called civ!
B.T.W. There not even made my Sid Miers are they?

Nope. In fact, when making the first one (if I have the details of this correct), Microprose filed a lawsuit against Activision for using "Civilization" in the game's title.

Maybe they tied all their pikes together to make one big long pike. . . hahaha :lol:



Sounds way too Monty Pythonish to me. ;)



My theory is that they launch there pikes in a Ballista at the Bomber.
 
Well, may as well put my nuke story into this thread as I don't want to start another.

Well anyway, I am playing on the medium sized Earth map on prince, with randomzied resources (non-randomized starting positions) and so i started off as Spain. After building Madrid and another city I realize that Madrid is likely a 4 special city (with 2 ocean specials which end up being Whale :D ) so I decide to go for a spaceship victory with one city. I end up leading the tech race by a ton and build the Apollo wonder when it dawns on me, I had bloodlust on. My oppenents were America, Russia, the Carthaginians and India and the only way I could "win" was by globabl domination (highly unlikely since America had all of North America covered and Russia had all of Europe except for Spain and they had started into Asia). Since I didn't have a large number of forces I decided to Nuke the Russians (I started the wararound 1812 because I remember thinking to myself about Napoleon invading Russia and such). In just over a century global warming has happened 4 times, I'm still at war with Russia (they've had 2 civil wars and probably 10 capitals) and they have one major city left along with 6 minor ones. If I can figure out how to post an image I'll post one of Europe...
