Benjamin Franklin leans back, cracking his knuckles. He'll ride out all these stubborn city-state dictators until a stable government emerges - he added a bunch of bonus resources in the map editor. He has a huge stockpile of gold, it will be easy to buy them out when they've been pacified. He's not very good at the game, the last time he tried to conquer one he quickly realized that his superior research does not make up for the fact that he was so overwhelmed he forgot to build a good army.

the cheat menu in civ2 was cool because you could redraw all your units, and also turn on ww2 ai and watch the game snap itself in half

The rest of the world is playing Civ 4, which is why the US keeps getting defeated. They can only place one unit in a tile while the Chinese/North Vietnamese/Afghan Insurgents/Iraqi Rebels are able to bring in stacks of doom of 40+ units at once and just send wave after wave of low-tech infantry at them.

At least stacks of doom are vulnerable to collateral damage attacks like airstrikes. Drones and A-10 Warthogs are exceptional at that sort of thing.

benjamin franklin is my favorite great artist, he wrote an entire book about fuckin old saggy bitches and he wasn't even ironic about it and it should've been his great work in civ 5

i dunno maybe i just wanna hear morgan sheppard say "And as in the dark all Cats are grey, the Pleasure of corporal Enjoyment with an old Woman is at least equal, and frequently superior, every Knack being by Practice capable of Improvement."
