Battle Royale: The Endless Battle of 42 Civilizations in Civilization V



    What will happen if you put 42 nations at once in Civilization V? This question was asked by the participants of this thread in Reddit. The answer to the question was a real experiment, where 42 civilizations set to fight against each other in Civilization V, calling this battle “Battle Royale”.

    Generally speaking, fans of "Civilization" put quite interesting experiments. For example, not so long ago the results of an 11-year battle were published , the longest in the world of this game (moreover, 11 years is the real time of the Earth, not the game time). The results of Battle Royale are no less interesting.

    The battle began in 1880 BC, and its participants showed interesting results. So, Poland showed Nazi Germany where the crayfish hibernate, destroying Berlin and Germany itself together with Norway.



    By the way, one of the conditions of the “battle” was the disconnection of all other possibilities of victory, except for “domination” (Domination). Civilizations did not have a victory in time or victory thanks to the launch of the spacecraft - these conditions were simply turned off in the settings. It could be expected that the battle would be endless, but now, after 180 moves, it continues. According to the organizers, the battle will last until the participants reach a stable balance and a stalemate.

    So far, AI has not invented atomic weapons, but it can be expected that after the creation of appropriate technologies, the gameplay will become even more interesting.

    You can watch the gameplay here (though, the authors of the idea include streaming from time to time, the channel does not work constantly).
