We need to know who's online and has time, and that's easier if we have everyone in our Steam friends list.

Special episode time!

Image
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!

Image
This is the best thing you have ever seen.

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

Image
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.

Image
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.

Image
Fear the ÜberTank!

Image
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.

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

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

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

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

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

Image
And so it truly begins!

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

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

Image
Almost there ...

Image
YES

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

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

Image
His marines actually got one of my tanks.

Image
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!

Image
And so ends one turn.

Image
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!

Image
Meanwhile, I destroy some of his farms.

Image
Not looking so tough now, are you Fuchsia?

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

Image
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.

Image
It's Sun Tzu's first fight!

Image
He wins, rather predictably.

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

Image
But anyway, back to the regular booty-kicking!

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

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

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

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

Image
Intense.

Image
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!

Man, I REALLY need to get this game in time for the next round.

Assuming there even is another round, anyway.

Assuming that there is, would I need Civilization IV complete or would just the regular Civilization IV without the expansion packs be okay?
