Let's Play Civilization IV!
Special episode time!

Well, Chozo City's not looking too good there. I guess I might as well try to take Fuchsia down now that I have all those tanks.
I other news, I built some guided missiles. They're not really useful, but I can't build nukes due to an U.N. Resolution from earlier on.
Anyway, time to get my tanks over here!

This is the best thing you have ever seen.

... it's not quite as good in a close-up.

And this is what we're up against! Marines, Infantry, tons of machine guns, a scout and ... a cossack? Seriously?
Well, at least he doesn't have any longbowmen.

I give a lot of my techs to Zara for reasons I can't recall anymore.
Oh well, at least he won't attack my new cities south from his continent like this. Probably.

Fear the ÜberTank!

And of course I'm still producing tanks, too. The only problem is that they don't have City Attack III, so they likely won't get me very far.
And I only just noticed that Plasma actually built another city. Eh, it won't last very long.

The first attack starts! Plasma counts the kills. Currently, it's 2-0 for him. daisies.

To keep Plasma from building even more machine guns, I destroy some of his mines.
Oh, and Pallet Town, of course.

Check out my submarine!
It's neither particularly useful nor yellow.

... what? Oh, yes! There's also a fight going on. Heh.
One of my weaker tanks against Ivan the Terrible. I lose.

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
Yes, my stronger tanks are almost there! With any luck, Plasma's not gonna last much longer!

And so it truly begins!

Ivan the Terrible! If I can't beat him, I have no chance of conquering this city.

He's cheering on his units like crazy, but I'm afraid that won't be enough!

Almost there ...

YES

YEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS
Now there's nothing that could stop me anymore!

... I mean, apart from those guys.
Just a matter of time!

His marines actually got one of my tanks.

They paid with their lives.
Also, if you didn't notice yet, he's got another Great General. He's just a marine, though. Silly Plasma!

And so ends one turn.

Time for the next one!
Same old story: Bombarding all his stuff first, then sending out my tanks. Fuchsia actually has 0% defense right now!

Meanwhile, I destroy some of his farms.

Not looking so tough now, are you Fuchsia?

I also get a Great General and make him join one of my tanks.

The problem is that a lot of my tanks took some damage, so they'll have to heal a bit.
Oh well, it's only delaying the inevitable.

It's Sun Tzu's first fight!

He wins, rather predictably.

I lose another tank against his new Great General.
I really shouldn't have fought this whole battle with a river between us.

But anyway, back to the regular booty-kicking!

Woo! There goes Plasma's Great General, and with him Russia's last hope.

Sun Tzu kicks some more marine booty while Brinstar celebrates how great I am.

A- ... actually, Sun Tzu dies in the fight.
Doesn't change anything about how great I am, though. Right, guys? Right?

Well, it certainly doesn't change anything about Plasma being completely wiped out.

Intense.

And as suddenly as it started, it is done.
Well, that's all folks!
I hope you enjoyed this (my first!) Let's Play, 'cause I sure did!
See you in the next match!

Redid the tutorial to get myself back in the game. After Sid told me what to do, I decided to play peaceful with India, offering them free technologies and such.
Thousands of years later, I finally realize India is the only one I'm playing against, and that they only have one city and defenses that suck.
I destroy their only city, and they spring hidden units out of nowhere in an attempt to get their city back. I beat them without having to do anything.
I honestly don't know which civilization was dumber.

So we got round to playing the second match. With me, Mond, Fooflyer, and Ame.
It is the best match I have EVER played! I'm not kidding, it was UTTERLY HILARIOUS!
Well, I mean, so far. We're not even at the half-way point yet though. It'll still take another couple of days before we finish and start the LetsPlay!
