There is no more war, now, only silence…

@Prometheus labs CEO  
War, war never changed…

@Sukro454  
Try to avoid violence if you can but if violence is required then throw everything you have at them until nothing is left but a crater

My attempts to avoid violence have failed. An eye for an eye only makes the world blind
 
Mahatma Gandhi

Gandhi in civ 5 uses what I consider the optimal form of diplomacy.  
He’s reluctant to go to war, and willing to be friends, and treats his friends well, but if you cross him or his people then destruction, suffering, and death are all that await you

that’s what happens when in the olden times -1 computed as 254.

You shouldnt have done that…
 
What do you mean by “wrong game” ?

@Irony  
Not super aggressive, just ULTRA NUCLEAR.

@glockenspiel  
That shit’s why I always play with Abundant resources. I know that where I start will have at least SOME excellent shit.
 
Ideally I start on or adjacent to a non-hills tile that is next to a mountain, a desert tile, a long sprawling river and a body of water (ideally the ocean or a lake big enough to settle on the far side of)
 
And then I build ALL OF THE WONDERS. I am never very popular in the world congress and generally just keep maintaining sufficiently good terms with other nations so as to keep their borders open and culture jam in everyone’s faces until I win without a fight by the early Modern era. Always go Freedom, so as to maintain unbeatable relations with every single city state I can connect a trade route to, and to have absurdly powerful Great Tile improvements. (Fully upgraded; Holy Sites: 3 gold, 3 culture, 8 faith. Academy: 16 science. Landmark: 11 culture. Maufacturies: 9 production. Customs house: 9 gold. And all of those get an additional 2 culture if I don’t mind risking pissing off the other nations by proposing Historical Monuments since they never want me to have that for some reason.)

I started in a desert. I had all adjacent non-diagonal tiles as ocean tiles. Ghandi had an archer. He started close enough I could see him before his turn started. I did not know about Civ!Ghandi yet.

@glockenspiel  
>Not settling on the first turn.  
Did you get absolutely nothing in terms of luxury resources or any wheat at all?

@Silent Wing  

 
He killed my Settler.

@glockenspiel  
Damn son, you lost to 1 warrior?

@reese342  

 
He was the first civ I met in my first playthrough of my first game. I lasted 5 turns.

@Silent Wing  
I know he was a very pacifist man.

@atalarikt  
It’s ironic because in reality he’s probably the least aggressive person that ever lived who had to face aggression.

@Irony  
Which makes him kinda ironic as a character….
 
I haven’t played any Civ games, but that sorta sounds ironic.

@Silent Wing  
That was a glitch in the original Civ.  
Gandhi had a natural aggression value of 1, the lowest in the game. Gandhi favors Democracy and Democracy lowers a civ’s aggression by 2, and they used an unsigned int, so when India became democratic:  
1 - 2 = 255
 
In the games since then they made him super aggressive on purpose.

@rylasasin  
Well then… I can’t tell if that’s suppose to be offensive or redundant. XD

@Silent Wing
 
Actually that’s an Ascended Glitch.
 
That’s right. They deliberately made it that way.

Welcome to peaceful India.
 
 
Our words are backed with Nuclear Weapons.

The funny thing is that there’s a coding floop in Civ 5 where Ghandi’s character has a natural -2 to his already 1/10 chance of using nuclear weapons, so the game sets it at 10. He uses nukes all the time when he gets them.

Are you Yaks crazy?  
That’s Ghandi! He’ll pull the nuclear trigger at the drop of a hat!

@glockenspiel  
No, he means, the war declaration meme.
