Damnit Pedro we've been over this! You always attack me when you've only got one city and are a whole era behind me, you don't stand a chance against my Legions!
In my current game I long since stopped caring about my religion, except using it as an impetus to wage holy wars across the globe. Thanks for converting my cities!
Plus using all my faith to instead snatch every great person I've wanted has been nice too.
yeah faith is way more reliable in GP recruitment and also just spending in bulk to raise an army faith prices for advanced units are completely reasonable

Me: "Saladin, I see your settler, don't you dare create a city in between my two cities."
Saladin: "Oh, sorry, didn't see your cities nearby!"
Rumors has it that Saladin has expanded his territory with the founding of Damascus
Saladin: "I see you have military near my borders, remove them unless you intend to start a war"
Yeah, cause I'm the one who started it. The only one left on the continent after I wiped out Brazil is Gorgo and I'm pretty sure if I raze Saladin's entire nation off the map she'll ally with me instead of denouncing me.
I noticed Egypt apostles surrounding one of my cities again, and was already to declare War on Cleopatra again to get 'em out, but then I noticed that they're apostles for... My religion. And the city they were surrounding already had it.

I see Saladin subscribes to the Beijing method of dealing with problems ala south china sea.
I had Russia request my assistance in a joint war. I was like, "Fuck it, why not." Russia then got mad at me for being a warmonger and declared war on me.
Gandhi got mad at me because I was too warlike. Having declared on 2 other empires via Casus Belli. Whatever.
So a few turns later he demands tribute and when I refuse. He declares war on me!
All I could think was the achewood "oh my God that is the worst possible answer"
Casus Belli gives you a 50% penalty, so 2 of them = formal war declaration.
However it is really hard to gain a standing relationship with a civ. I think switching governments is the way to go since government type isn't nearly as important as it was in V
Marty: The future, it's where you're going? Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

the AI is really playing to type right now and it actually is kinda bad
like you expect montezuma to try and shit on people, but you don't expect him to literally not play the game except to keep pressing Jaguar until he has enough
If you declare war on the country that owns the missionaries, and start killing them all, it lowers the level of that religion's influence on cities in a 10-ish tile radius
Which is interesting, and a solid mechanic, but also kinda horrifying when you start to think of the implications

Some of my Apostles got the ability that turns them into relics if they die in a faith fight.
...Oh good, you brought me his skull back...and covered it in gold....didn't waste any time on this did you?
There have to be some shenanigans going on with AI and resource generation because that's well over 3000 faith worth of missionaries and apostles, at least, and I guarantee even if all those were wiped out they'd just have that same amount a couple turns later.

I mean, if that game was being played on King or up, that's correct
I wish there was some way to implement difficulty in 4x games without simply blatantly giving the AI access to things a human can't possibly replicate.

We need to get this in a museum quick, 50 Cent is outside and he has that gold skull look to him again

Somebody fucked up.
Well all their practice with wheeless battering rams and siege towers gave them plenty of experience throughout history.
by the way
Gilgamesh is a fucking rad leader in this game I think. Ziggurats are OP, tribal bonus from barb camps is off the scale nuts.
if you're Arabia you have to unlock Theology in order to get the university, not education
It's that civilization from the flute episode of Star Trek TNG
and probably a dozen or so other civilizations from TNG
when you can't afford to build sets, everyone gets to be space amish!
it's nowhere near his own land
next turn he goes HEY QUIT SETTLING NEXT TO ME MAN
Fuck you, buddy.
go away
why are you in every single game I play
no one likes you
you're a dick
Playing islands and he dun settled on mine then started spreading his religion at me. It. Is. On.
It is just hilarious
Plus using all my faith to instead snatch every great person I've wanted has been nice too.
the AI in these games is always basically an eight year old child in terms of their all-consuming solipsism
QUIT TREADIN' ON ME
UH TO BE CLEAR I DON'T ESPOUSE SYMPATHIES WITH THE CONFEDERATE MOVEMENT, I MEAN YOUR WHITE HOUSE IS WAY TOO CLOSE TO MY TENT, STOP IT"
because that's basically what he did (I'm Roosevelt)

That's an, uh... Interesting strategy, Cleo
my hand isn't touching your nose, I don't see why you're so upset

Why should I listen to you? You're Hitler!
Gandhi's AI personality seems to be "no one can monger war except Gandhi".

And that's why you don't settle Utah.

Above Prince, the game cheats in the AI's favor.

nah if you lift up that armor it's just horses under there
