It just seems like your challenging Pilot to drop many nukes on a mountain until it is removed...

 

What is so great about finding Mt Fuji first. Doesn't give that great of a boost to outputs.

Don't think that's how that works. Can remove non capital city with a nuke.

No it just fucks it up. Nukes do a lot of damage and irradiate tiles, which is like pillaging but on steroids

[dx144]

Well it just means you have an extra thing to remove. Having Liberty and the Pyramids reduced tile improvement time by 50% so it becomes less of an issue when you have them. 

 

Does having a unit spend a turn in fallout cause damage? I've never tried as I think the possibility of losing or damaging one of my units is kind of stupid =P

[CruciasNZ]

You have to fix it in the same way as fixing pillaged tiles

[dx144]

So it acts as double pillaged. Doesn't seem too bad just doubles the repair time...

Trust me, it is very bad for the victim! Just do not ask me why I would know. I am not planning anything!

It affects a huge area rather than just one tile. Basically freezes the benefits of a city till most of the fallout is cleaned. Also units fighting in it recieve a -33% combat modifier.

Small problem, April 5th is the same day The Elder Scrolls Online is released which my little bro has been hard about for months anticipating which means I will not get anywhere NEAR the shared PC, and because Civ is tied to his Steam and he can't gift it to me I can't install it on mine.

I'm afraid I'm out of this tournament already :/

I've seen nukes go off before and I know what they do with the fallout spread. I've always taken a city the turn I nuke it and raze or capture it if its a city that cannot be destroyed.

So when I see a nuke go off the city the nuke was dropped should be taken very quickly or you've just pissed someone off with nothing to very little to show for it =P

If it is on the 29th I'll have no problem being there.

[An_A10_Pilot]

Well cru just said the 29th and cru's running it. Very odd.

[Draco Ny'ade]

oops, my mistake

[dx144]

I'm working the 29th....

[CruciasNZ]

Bwahahaha my bad - but by god the fall out is hilarious.

 

The truth is that BOTH dates are correct as there are two Civ 5 weekends in a row. I just typed up the wrong ones; due to my error we'll hotseat this weekend and plan for the one afterwards. 

 

This means I'll make the teams on the fly and with the first-come style spot selection. I'll tell the standby people that there will be spots

[JC 042]

KK, I will take part in the event on the 29th.

[dx144]

It wouldn't be too bad but on the 29th I start work at 8pm and probably won't be back till midnight or 1am...

 

I'll be there for the 5th though, unless everyone can't be arsed and I go and play with myself on Civ 5...
