Well that gave me goosebumps. Bleak future indeed, I immediately thought of the Doomsday Clock. I like the idea of a new subreddit spawned by this: http://www.

Well that gave me goosebumps. Bleak future indeed, I immediately thought of the Doomsday Clock.
I like the idea of a new subreddit spawned by this: http://www.reddit.com/r/theeternalwar http://www.reddit.com/r/theeternalwar.
It could be interresting to see if anybody finds a way to save the world from hell.
Maybe it's time to relive good old memories of times spend with old Civ games. :)
- pavel_lishin 14y agoIt would be interesting if he exported the game state, so other people could try resolving the conflict.
- timwoj 14y agoThe top post of the top thread in r/theeternalwar say he's working on exporting it for everyone.
- mynameishere 14y agoThe game is easy and boring in the end. He's purposely letting it go on and on.
- zem 14y agoread through the thread; it's anything but easy. he's hit the point where the ai civs have decided nuclear war is the way to go, and he's reaping the global penalties for it (radioactive wastelands, global warming) while simultaneously having to divert all his resources to maintaining the red queen race of building tanks and having them destroyed rather than cleaning up his farmlands to grow food.
- mynameishere 14y agoI blew away an unfortunately portion of my youth playing this game. When everyone has all the techs, the human wins, very easily.
- zem 14y agoso did i, but i pretty much always eliminated everyone else early on, or went for the alpha centauri victory. never tried playing out the total war scenario with balanced empires and nuclear weapons. but from the op, the problem is not winning from a clean state, it's that he's gotten himself into a bad situation and needs to get out.
- radical_cut 14y agoThat's one of the main points of the new subreddit I've linked to. From the original thread: >> We just need the savegame... > (original author) I'll upload it this evening when I get home So we just have to wait.
- kodablah 14y agoIs there a reverse-engineered Civ II api (i.e. akin to bwapi)?
- zokier 14y agoI have played very little Civ2 (my Civ career began with Civ3), but doesn't FreeCiv have a ruleset that aligns with Civ2 very closely?
