DBSD13--That's exactly what I do. I got so tired of having my butt whipped that I just play as them.
When I play as the Zulus, I usually am #1 in most things. When I play against them, they are #3 or 4.
I like the Zulu culture; I don't like the Zulus in Civ. I hope they make them better in Civ!!!.

Come on, get real... have the Zulus ever really beaten a human player? We humans whoop up on every AI nationality just about evenly... in the end it is a steamroll. Besides, the Russians or even Mongols are usually more of a threat than the silly Zulus!
 
Sure the Zulus may not be a military threat but there the most untrustworthy nation in the game.

Read our Mission Statememts. I believe they are in the "Anti-Zulu Cult" thread following my link on page one.

It took a little searching, but I found the "One week AntiZulu Cult" of March 2001.

If I were on the field of battle, and to the east were the Mighty Mogol hordes, to the south was the Zealous Zulu warriors, and to the north were the Raging Russian armies, with the west as the only avenue of retreat... and my officers were asking for their orders... my reply would be... Attack immediately, to the North, East, and South! From dust they came, and unto dust they will be returned this day...
 
Is there anybody that likes the Zulus in here?

In my last game... The Zulus got reamed by the barbarians... I then scrodgered the barbs and scored me two sweet cities!

There is no difference between the civilizations... I think there is meant to be - Only on a wide level - ie, pacifist, perfectionist, aggressionist... But I think they must change for each game as they all do different things... ie - one game you have the russians expanding like all hell and wiping every other civ other the planet, and in the next one they are under the sioux's heel and are meek and mild... (Until I of course rip them limb from limb!!!

Morgasshk!
 
ultimately all computer civs are controlled by the same stupid AI. As a result none stand before the wrath of my mighty armies. However, certain civs tend to be more annoying than others in the process of going down to defeat.

As a result of the recent cease fire agreement, I do not wish to make any inflamitory remarks at this time, so I will not make mention of which civs these are.

I find the Indians lead by Ghandi to be the most untrustworthy and viley aggressive nation in civ2...I am probably alone in thinking that!
 
No, Kitten, I agree - they (Indians) are the #1 backstabbing AI run Civ. It is because of their actions that I generally will play the purple civ (as the Mongols) just so I don't have to deal with their annoying style of play!
 
I only got civ2 about 5 days ago, and I've finished a few games (on chieftan...
smile.gif
). In every game the zulu's were one of the first to go.

They seem to have the most stupid demands of the races, they were demanding tribute even though I owned 75% of the map!

It was nice to hear their begs for mercy and offers for ceasefires as my tanks rolled up to their capital......

No, the nation I am playing is usually the most untrustworthy nation in the game.

I like the colour green, so I sometimes be them.

I agree with noughmaster (to rhyme with enough or dough?). The most disreputable civ is always mine! I'll make peace, move a freight into their city and then make war again.
lol.gif
My favourite wonder is the UN, the Eiffel Tower isn't worth anything other than the bonus civ points because I never care what my reputation may be.
I don't agree with what he says about liking green though. I prefer purple, but the Mongols are the only cool purple civ. I hope I haven't put myself on the wrong side of the pro/anti-Zulu war here, but I don't care. My armour are good enough! I do have a little bit of a grudge against the Zulus because, once destroyed, they have a stupid habit of coming back again. I once had two cities called Zimbabwe, when the other green civs should really have replaced them. I don't understand this. Another thing is that either if you're the Germans or if you've taken Hamburg from them, one of the extra cities on the reserve list is Hamburg. This is stupid. Lisbon and Cannae and whatever all the others are called are fair enough, but to duplicate names is daft and confusing. I realise that it is easily solved (by changing the name to Dortmund, which the Germans never got to build
smile.gif
), but it does seem strange.

------------------
in vino veritas
 
Resurrection is annoying, isn't it? I always check the option 'Don't restart eliminated players' when I customize the game rules for my game.

Here's what I did about the extra cities. I play the Zulus most often, so I went into the city.txt file and added about 250 more Zulu cities because I am an expansion nut. You can go down the list and add extra cities to any civ so that you don't see Mongolian cities called Capua and Cannae.
smile.gif


The Sioux are the most untrustworthy in my games. The Zulus, when I'm not playing them, are not untrustworthy, they're just annoying. Why is it that they are so DUMB in Civ? I hope they make the Zulus a better civ in Civ3! I hope that they also remember that Ulundi is the Zulu capital, not Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe was another culture and civ in ancient times. Today, it is the country to the North of South Africa, formerly known as Rhodesia.
Ok, enough ranting.
