I have a better present.
Present to Communists
- Thread starter Emperor2
- Start date
Emperor, that link was probably pointless. A more fulfilling project would be for a Communist to play a Civ game, institute a Communist state, and make it work. I've done that myself in a couple of Civ games.
But then, in various Civ-style games, I've started unprovoked wars, indulged in slavery, assassinated various world leaders, used nuclear weapons extensively, and in those games where space travel is involved, destroyed entire worlds and slaughtered billions upon billions of innocent people.
So, instituting Communism inside a Civ game doesn't mean all that much.....
Communism in Civ 3 is by far the best government. In Civ 1 and 2 it's good. I haven't played Civ 4.
You're 14? That explains it.
There are no set governments in Civ4, just different areas, like Labor, Religion, and so forth. The State Property Civic is clearly communist, and is probably the best civic in the whole game. (Eliminates half of your maintenance costs, makes your watermills and workshops produce +1 food, and in BTS +10 production in every city)

State Property makes your empire into a über-utopia kibbutz.

I'd like some one to make a pitch to me what actually can be considered good things about communism.
Yeah, well, not everything revolves around you
Yes it does. Now respect your communist overlord.

Depends on what you refer by "communism". Do you mean the ultra-right-wing stalinist totalitarianism or the socialist theory?

Educate me.
Well, it does equalize the Lorenz curve a bit. Although it's like having equal pieces from a diminishing pie.
That's all I can think of right now.

I've played Civ 3 with every possible government, and won the game 20 different ways.

By the time you're big enough for a Commie government to really be a benefit, you're already way ahead of everybody else, and the game is already over regardless of which government you have. I've won on Huge maps as a Republic. By conquest. In fact, that's how I've won most of my games.

So aren't you just thrilled that you live in a capitalist system where you won't be able to get into the best schools?
