The "OMG! Look what happened!" Thread

More conqueror independent shenanigans. This time, Portugal had gotten conquerors on all three native civs. Their army was passing into Aztec territory, but their stability dropped, Huaxyacac declared independence, and their army turned back around - and started conquering Mayan cities from the Portuguese.

That's actually more interesting than regular independent conquerors.

Rebel conquerors?

 

[GGracchus]

Well, I did cause this one, but it is fairly OMG.

I was playing as China for space and I got unstable and lost half my empire(I had indonesia, manila, the eastern half of the US, England, the mongolian capital, pyongyang, and some other chinese cities), and Loyang had a tactical nuke in it, and I was at war with that civ. Luckily, I still have about 4 ICBM's left in Luoyang.

My first though is where's New York, why hasn't Britain built it?

Then I look in the world builder I see the Viking have completely occupied England.

 

[Gruekiller]

Well, this is new.

 

[Akbarthegreat]

Well, this is new.

We're gonna see them getting Hanseoung next

The Romans took their anti-barbarian crusade way too far.

Woah, the only way I see that happening is if the AI crossed Russia, or went through central asia, crossed the Gobi desert, got Open Border with Mongolia or China, or neither he could have run into independents, take the mountain pass (Chengdu) into Tibet and happen to be lucky enough to have only 1-2 archers or warriors in the city.Lucky, to say the least. I say they go that way because there's no way you could go through southeast asia as Praetorians can't go through jungle. Got to love the Civ IV BTS AI.

I'm China, actually.

I'm China, actually.

Did they have OB with you? Because if not, they forced some druids to give them their magic portion, and they just pushed the Himalayas aside

 

[Akbarthegreat]

Another explanation: Dilli is taken by barbs so the legion goes till N or NE of Dilli. Next turn India recaptures it, their borders expand immediately, and[because they dont have OB with India] the legion is teleported there. That explains why the legion attacked Lasa from the West, and not from the east, from where he should have attacked if he came from the tibetan pass.

Actually, yes, OB.

 

[Akbarthegreat]

Actually, yes, OB.

But then why did they attack from the west?[Look at the direction the legion is facing]

 

[Dumanios]

Romans are silly like that.

 

[Mr. Sulu]

The Romans decided to do the Ai's favorite move.........

Do absolutely nothing with a huge stack of troops and just wait,

Like these guys......

They're part of the WWAF, which means "We Watched Americans Fight"

(By the way this not meant be offensive, it merely a joke between Germans, I'm German (And Proud of it) so I would technically be offending myself)

 

[OrcWarrior]

I don't know if this would be really considered an OMG, but this is the first time I've seen Christianity founded in Jerusalem. I'm Babylonia btw

 

[corovanrobber]

It wouldn't. If (typically) Rome is slacking like a b*tch and fails to research Theology in time then Christianity is auto-founded in Jerusalem.

 

[hoplitejoe]

Or a random celt city failing that

 

[Mr. Sulu]

Wait is this RFC: DOC? As I though Burdigala or Hattusas would come before Jerusalem in founding Christianity.......
