[@Theodorable] Out of curiosity, should we expect events not caused by the players (such as anomalies floating through space or independent species) to impact us during the course of the roleplay?

[quote=@Mardox](That's generally how I play Civ, mind my own business until a city-state takes out a hit on other city-state or someone doesn't like me, once relations break down I attack whoever I don't get along with and nuke ruthlessly.)[/quote]

You let the game last long enough to have nukes? I will teach you the true way of war:

[b]STEP ONE[/b]

Play Songhai.

[b]STEP TWO[/b]

Attack everyone.

[b]STEP THREE[/b]

You win.

EDiT: I once did this to a friend who wanted to play wonder-rushing Egypt. He wouldn't talk to me for weeks afterward.
