Re: Guy plays the same Civilization II game for 10 years
Actually I think it's actually a pretty cool scenario for a strategy game, especially if you could factor in things like backsliding tech and dwindling strategic resources.

I think Civ III was the first one to include strategic resources that you needed to build certain things, and they do get depleted. Which would mean that if a game went this long in III, potentially the most powerful production units in any army would be: riflemen, artillery, and galleons.

Re: Guy plays the same Civilization II game for 10 years
All this is like a tutorial on world domination... Nuke it over several times, then pick up the pieces. :P

 
Re: Guy plays the same Civilization II game for 10 years
Except everyone is nuking everyone, so nobody can pick up the pieces.  There aren't even many pieces to pick up since the entire world is ocean, swamps, and mountains.

[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

Re: Guy plays the same Civilization II game for 10 years
It seems someone won the war in just 58 years.
Heh, I wondered how long it would be until that happened.

EDIT: That is a strategic masterpiece, and the fanfic is icing on the cake.  Crap, now I'm going to have to get into the Civilization series...

I meant the guy who finished the war.

 
Re: Guy plays the same Civilization II game for 10 years
Yeah, but will there be any pieces left when the war is finally done?

Re: Guy plays the same Civilization II game for 10 years
I just found out this today, but it might be an interesting read.

An update on the eternal war and how power corrupts.

The first comment is gold.

"War is the natural state of man" , that is what happened.

It's fun to see this is still going on.
