Greece? Civ V Alexander's AI has given me an eternal vendetta against Greece whenever it appears in the game. I see him riding across my screen and I'm like, "Okay. Now I know at least one target to burn down to the ground."

Civ VI's Greece is much better than Civ V's. There new leader is Pericles, (Think I spelt that right) and he's really cool. I really, Really Hate canada in Civ (not as a real country) Because the AI plays them so stuck up, over dramatic and too diplomatic. And they always appear in my games. I crush them swiftly. They once made deals with everyone too start a joint war against me! Nuked them all : )

I want you to know. You are going to lose. You are going to lose badly. You’re going to lose badly and it’s going to be awesome.
And, if we're going to talk about Civ, I think it's worth mentioning the Tale of Dark Gandhi the Nuclear. As the story goes, in the original Sid Meir's Civilization the aggressiveness of a leader was stored as an unsigned int. And Gandhi, being peaceful, was set at 1 out of 10 for aggression. And, being so peaceful, he would later adopt Democracy which lowered an AI's aggression by 2. So it seems simple, right? 1 - 2 = -1 = ultra peaceful, right?
Wrong!
Because remember, this was an unsigned int. So it could not store negative values. And instead it wrapped around to the highest value it could store. So suddenly peaceful Gandhi went for 1/10 aggression to 255/10 aggression. And at the same time you were able to adopt Democracy, you were right around being able to build nukes. So players would find peaceful Gandhi out of the blue coming to their door saying, "Beware. My words are backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!"

I never played the original Civ, but I feel like someone has told me about this before. Hilarious and terrifying.

civ is nice and all but total war is where its really at, to be fair diplomacy and customizablity seem to be prioritized more in civ
