So most people have played at least one of the games in this franchise so I thought it would be nice to have a thread for it :)

Personally I play a lot of Civ5, and I really would love to try 6 in the future!

It's been a while since I played a Civ game but I used to play Civ 4 in Uni dorms with my flat/house mates :lol: We spent hours and hours playing it and really enjoyed it. Civ is a cracking series and if you've never played one, you're definitely missing out :XD:

I put in the largest possible amount of city states and was allies with every single one
I think in the end I had about 88 delegates? And you only needed about 50 to become world leader.

Is it really that uncommon? If you ally with all the states I think it's the easiest way to beat AI XD

every time i've tried to go for a diplomatic victory, the city-states and the other civs ALL vote for someone else
