Default In the doghouse

Oops
The missus did a night shift on Wednesday, so last night she was a bit tired. She asked me to keep an eye on the chicken in red wine sauce that was bubbling away, in case she fell asleep on the couch, but I was so deep into civ iv, it boiled dry and burned.

this is gonna cost me

You should nuke the opposition (civ 4) in retaliation for the chicken incident.

You need a reason to nuke the opposition in civ 4? Clearly I have been playing that game wrong.

I liked civ 2 method of nuking better, just get a horde of spies and they all plant nukes.... so much more fun.

I still reckon civ2 was the best civ yet.

Civ 4 owes me many hours of my life back.

Anyone tried the console variant: Civilization Revolution? I'm not sure how well the game would make the transition to a console, but I'd interested to know if anyone has tried it.
