I honestly hate Greece and I love Greece, but in my experience Greece is better than Greece. So I think Greece is going to win, unless Greece somehow beats Greece.
SPOILER!!! So, Greece wins the first one, then 2nd it was close with Greece winning; the final match went to Greece decisively. Sorry if I spoiled it for you!!! It was your fault! Shouldn't have 'read more'...
I agree. It totally ruined watching these. Would it be too big of an advantage for Gorgo? You totally neutered her huge advantage, which is early barbarian kills to absolutely tear up the civics tree.
I know this is 3 years late but I've gone against a huge pangaea with pericles Greece as my neighbor and they were hugely aggressive and took me out 2 city states that have allied and used them to fight there wars and wiped me out
Yes, I like the format. Best of 3 matches really helps balance out unfair starts. Matches I would like to see are between those with similar strengths. so 1. Aztecs vs Sythia (early rush) 2. Rome vs Russia (expansive civs) 3. Spain vs Arabia (religious civs) etc
Redo Germany vs Russia and the other AI duels in this best of 3 try. Also please no Religion Victories in this set up. ITs boring and doesnt say much about the AI!
Not really the land grabbing only helps on Pangea, If germany has time to biuld up they can win easy. Its really the early game i think. Both arent god civs.
Dear Drew - I know this AI only battles is interesting, but can you finish other series that you've started? don't let Aztec series be like India. I know you like to promote other indie games and want to spend time with those too, but if you've started a series please please finish it, especially if we already watched more than 3 hours of it
In reality, Greek won with the culture victory. Even thousands of years after the fall of the Hellenic kingdoms, people still regard Greek as one of the premier cultures from which others derived, including the Romans, Muslims (specifically the Abbasid Caliphate), and Renaissance Italy.
Drew, you can only use inquisitors on cities within your own civilization. So I don't really know why Pericles kept trying to send them to Gorgo, but maybe that's why he lost. You can also use them for religious combat but they're worse than apostles so there's not much point unless you can get them in a nice defensive position in your own civilization.
As a greek, Greece Actually has a religion ages now. The developers maybe haven't programmed Greece to have because at the era of Pericles and Gorgo it existed the Dodekatheo (Zeus and these gods) which does not exist in the game. But niw Greece is strongly in Eastern Orthodoxy.
This could honestly go either way because both Greece and Greece have they’re strengths and weaknesses. I was honestly expecting Greece to win but I could see how Greece ended up winning instead.
I love greece in Civ! Can u do a tsl gameplay of them? Its really hard! Doing one myself rn and its hard bc u gotta choose carefully where to place districs. I played with pericles and without gorgo on the map. 1st thing u wanna do is get some extra cities fast bc your space is limited ;) Hope u reconsider this :) i know it would be 3 europian gameplays then but still, its a good chalange :)
I like the new best of 3 on different maps, but I would like to see the AI play in Deity difficulty. It would speed the game up, and we would probably see more cities settled.
You shout have a tournament for island plates another tournament for Pangea and another tournament for continents. Because that should take a long time take what you think the top 8 for that map type for each turnament
What about a custom map where each civ has its own continent identical to the other, and two small continents they can colonize, and you have it run four times on this map where only one victory is enabled at a time?
Oh my god did you see the Greece vs Greece fight? I thought Greece was going to win for a while then Greece started to get the upper hand, but then Greece pulled a quick one and beat Greece
At the beginning I was sure Greece was going to win. But because Greece made the decision to found a city near Greece I swapped my mind towards Greece. But then since Greece made the move to befriend the city state that before was a friend of Greece, Greece got mad and started planning a takeover of Greece.
