Civ AI Survivor: Season Five

Now I almost want to see Sitting Duck win this one, just to read the comments afterward. lol

(Almost...because I picked him to die too.)

I just want to apologize in advance if my entry went in twice, my internet dipped off when I hit enter and it told me to do it again.

Game Two is finished! Thanks to so many people for turning out today; we broke our record for most contest entries *AGAIN* at 254 and peaked at 190 viewers on the stream concurrently at one point. eek Every time that we do this event it seems to get bigger and draw in more people watching; I'm wondering if we'll be able to hit 200 viewers by the time that this season ends. Here's a batch of links for the next game:

Game Three Picking Contest Entry Form

Congratulations to Kjotleik as the solo winner of Game Two's picking contest with an impressive 19 points. thumbsup Scoring was about normal in this game with an average score of 7.99 points. We are continuing with our normal Friday date for next week's game. This time we're looking at looking at a good versus evil matchup of peace weight with Gandhi and his crew on one side and Julius Caesar on the other. Who do you have this week?

Game three has quite the field -- if Julius Caesar was not present it might be a peaceful tech fest. But he is there, and he has iron....

Game two thought:
Once again we see the futility of AI warring prior to catapults. Multiple wars that dragged on with little progress, but once catapults finally got into action cities began to change hands. Unless the target has no metals or gets hit with a 2v1 or 3v1, early wars just drag down both civs involved.

Watch him win a war-less tech victory like his opening round game last season.  lol

I kinda want to see Caesar eat everyone and get an ultra rare Conquest victory.... oh wait, he CANT because of the observer civ... right? Shame.
"Superdeath seems to have acquired a rep for aggression somehow.

I didn't think much of it last game, but in game 2 the southern ice is just enormous. Farmable tundra with fresh water, deer, some hills, all the sudden you have a fairly strong city.

But maybe Sullla could provide an overview shot of just the luxuries and another of just the strategic ressources. That shouldn't be to unreadable.

It's more of a case that the only time the AI razes a city is when the city autorazes.
