We're playing the turboneurodivergent Dawn of Civilization mod for Civilization IV that replicates world history. !g*mers

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3

Part 4 Part 5 Part 6

Part 7 Part 8

We now have Russia as a vassal (the "Province of Sarmatia") and directly control Japan, Australia, and America. Settling New Zealand as well.

Publius Valerius Publicola can be used to reform the government for free.

Fascism WINS by a whisker

We are now the New Roman Empire.

Much better for our treasury, espionage, and military. Science and great people generation took a minor hit.

We've gone from Italic Peoples -> Roman Kingdom -> Roman Empire -> Roman Republic -> New Roman Empire.

We're secular now too. We could do the Secular Religious Victory if we wanted

The cathedral goal is a little confusing - we don't have cathedrals for any eastern religions. But with Judaism, Islam, Orthodoxy, Protestantism, and Catholicism we have enough I guess

Secularism should our relations with much of the world a little. Most of the Catholic world are our vassals with the exception of Netherlands and Austria.

It's enough for Iran to open borders apparently.

Prussia still has a stick up their butt. I'm hoping when Bismarck becomes leader he'll like us a little more as Nationhood is his favorite civic. I'm going to cultivate good relations with these guys and try to influence them to become fascist too so Hitler appears, just for you chuds.

We still get penalties for "Our rivals are vassal to your empire" but it helps just a little. I realize embarrassingly late into this game session that I could just pay all my vassals to become secular as well to try to ease up this penalty.

Ultimately, fascism helps us Our domestic stability is booming and the economic recession is cooling off. We have a strong civic combo and a bonus for "contemporary civics".

At this point I'm so absurdly advanced that I decide to turn down my research funding and focus entirely on espionage temporarily to let the rest of the world catch up. I'm close to discovering nuclear weapons and we haven't had the American Revolutionary War yet. But I do want biplanes circling in my American colonies just to prove Trump right.

We can also use them to air strike injuns

Rome has hit Legendary Culture

I have to be careful because we're starting to tiptoe toward victory conditions. Vassalizing Russia was awesome but now we're 8% territory control away from Domination. I have a few other cities with Influential culture I need to prevent from hitting Legendary or I'll will Cultural. If really necessary I can just let some shit go but I turn my research funding back up to make sure I can get to space before another victory ticks.

1762, they're coming

I bring "Grippy" Agrippinia's army from Japan to Panama to prepare.

We're starting to discover Uranium deposits, which will of course be very important strategic resources.

We have mines in Ukraine and Australia. Australia is ours, but Ukraine is at risk of seceding. More would be safer.

There's a deposit in Africa we can grab with a colony, but it's a little close to Dutch South Africa.

We have an extra Great Artist we can use to create a Great Work in the city and blow up our cultural borders, getting us gem and rare earth mines as well.

Washington has arrived

I want America to capitulate, but it's going to take a while for "Rise of the Americans" to end before it will even be an option. Fine by me. With totalitarianism we don't get war weariness. America on the other hand does

With Nationhood we also actually get a small stability bonus when at war.

Interestingly America has embraced Slavery, so they're actually the Confederate States of America.

I'll contribute this to my development of the south and rich slave plantations.

It should probably at least require a capital in the south as well, but whatevs. There are some neat dynamic names for America. If they were to vassalize Mesoamerica as the CSA it would be known as the Golden Circle.

Washington attaches a general, Winfield Scott and does a successful job repelling Agrippina's army.

I'm forced to pull them back north to Concord to rendezvous with my other army. Concord is much more vulnerable.

His army marches on French New Orleans and there's little I can do I have to get my planes out.

They've rammed the ramparts and taken the airports.

Winfield Scott attempts to take Concord with my full army there and dies in the process

1810, my thinkpad grinds to a slowdown as Argentina and Mexico enter the map

Colombia shortly after

They all dislike us

And Colombia took the Panama canal away from us

These central/south American civs have some banger themes tho

Argentina:

Mexico:

Colombia:

We've researched Fission, and get The Manhattan Project started in Pella, Greece.

We're really having trouble making friends with Prussia/Germany

If we want Hitler (I assume you chuds do ) we'll probably need to convince Germany to become fascist through civic changes. Not possible if they hate us.

It is possible if they're our vassal.

For example, if we give Spain enough technologies to adopt Totalitarianism (WITHOUT a planned economy, otherwise they're commies), then encourage them to do so...

Philip II becomes Franco

If we want a pet Hitler, we'll have to get Germany to capitulate

First: America. The Rise of the Americans event is over so they can mechanically capitulate. We capture Washington almost right in 1812

It's now the Roman "Province of America". I give them back their cities and board my army to retvrn to Evrope

Interestingly, they seem to think some cities in Japan should belong to them.

I'm getting overextended, so it's worth considering

Btw, despite having almost 15k ducats in the bank we're not #1 in wealth. That honor goes to the original gangsta Mansa Musa

Dom Pedro of Brazil spawns with the smoothest banger yet

Our general Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus prepares to vassalize Germany. We have tanks now

Agrippina's army from America is gonna come from the west while Magnus comes from the east

They've been trying unsuccessfully to fight the Archduchy of Austria so are gonna be a little softened up. This should be over quick.

We can speed it up even more by having our spy start a revolt in the city, removing their defenses and allowing us to attack over a river semi-safely.

Within one turn we've taken most of his territory. Get blitzkrieg'd b-word

Bismarck is quickly willing to capitulate.

Now the "Province of Borussia" is willing to accept my new government.

A few turns later and HE'S HERE!!!!

Ethiopia apparently had a Defensive Pact with Germany so we're at war again now. I have just the thing for them

Nukes are much more powerful than in base game. I finish off stragglers with some biplanes and move in to take this irradiated shithole.

Probably nearing the endgame soon. I may be touching grass tomorrow so if not Saturday maybe Sunday

In the meantime, there's a missing String for Communist Sweden - someone give me a good name for them and I'll go into the XML files and change it.

NEXT

No tax up to 12 lakhs, insanity.

Cannot believe jokers cosplaying as “middle class” have forced the government in such a corner that it felt it had to do this.

Findom enjoyer genocide

Nah indirect taxes are better even at progressive taxation. Taxing income is stupid.

The middleclasscel will kiss his robber's feet for leaving him a little more and he will be happy.

Madarchod NRI I hope some wignat screwdrivers your fat gut.

The female Black Hawk helicopter pilot, Captain Rebecca Lobach, was not named until today. Was it so they could scrub her social media? Her Facebook page has been wiped. However, her Google+ image is below. If it turns out Lobach was a lesbian DEI pilot, I won't be surprised. pic.twitter.com/t8ShMR57dJ

Why're they pretending war in Yemen is something new lmao. Also splendid choice of protag for the script, they could've interviewed someone neutral but no they interviewed someone who got arrested by Ethio army in counter terror ops lmao

Based r*pe the islamists

In 10 years BTW. Sounds like a very oppressed person to me

I moved to Yemen and there's a war?

How could this be happening to me??!!

There's no way a boat that left hours before yours and sunk midway will have the corpses wash up at your specific landing point before you get there lmao.

Thank you Aevann

26M and 22F. You've been dating for 5 years meaning you were 21 and she was 17 when you started dating?Is no one else going to mention that? (252)

Yes thats correct. In hindsight, should've been a red flag that she didn't want to date people her own age. At the time, my peepee was doing the thinking. (-69)

Basedness: 🔥🔥🔘🔘🔘

The only way I'd say your girlfriend might be right is if your hygiene was lacking due to the phimosis. Noone likes an UTI given by old smegma, and then you'd need a real good plan how to address that.Other than that - time for you to find someone else to fulfill your dreams. (141)

I rinse my peepee thoroughly with warm water and it looks fairly clean to me. (-56)

Why did you go after a minor? That's the real red flag (50)

She went after me and I didn't say no (-50)

Angriest Comments

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Of course not. It's clear that her preference is "I don't want to get an infection." I can't believe how many people demonize her. One of my friends' ex had the same issue as him, and she said it stunk really bad, and she was getting infections because of it (this never happened with other bfs she had). Ultimately, she left because of this (149)

Yeah there's a lot of stuff missing here. I had a boyfriend once who's toenail wouldn't grow. He didn't have a rampant fungus problem but that one toenail did. My first suggestion was to go to the doctor, they have easy solutions for it. He kept googling household hacks and trying to fix it himself. It wasn't even a „his body is bothering me" issue. It was that I was just so freaking tired of it as a constant topic of conversation, ie him telling me he'd made progress, he thinks apple cider vinegar would work, he is going to shave it down, no it's gotten worse now etc etc etc etc. it was so freaking stupid. My response to all of it was „go to the doctor". He finally did and it went away right away. It wasn't a topic again. But I did break up with him anyways just because of the frustration. I can imagine if this is something that bothers both of them, and the „self help measures" are constantly a topic and taking over their lives more than it should, and the self help mea... (48)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

The amount of people jumping at the chance to tell you to dump her...sheesh.The whole thing reeks of "I love you and i don't want to leave you, but your peepee stinks so bad I'm going to have to do it if you don't get it fixed."And remember,  just because she doesn't love the smell of your fromunda cheese smelling peepee, doesn't mean there aren't millions of other women out there that will also not love it. Just snip it and get it over with. If she's not worth more than a piece of peepee skin to you,  maybe the next one will be.  (51)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

She apparently keeps getting UTI's I heard from other comments OP is a knob head (125)

Dude straaaiiight up OP has a nasty peepee if she's getting nonstop UTIs.My wife's ex gave her UTIs all the time and she really thought something was wrong with her til she stopped fricking him and stopped getting UTIs.Dude was lazy, didn't clean shit, barely cleaned himself if ever, truly pathetic.And the rest of ya, watch your mouth if you come asking why she stayed, abusive people abuse people into thinking they'll never find a way out of their situation without the abuser's help.Like my first thought is OP is a nasty little dude who's mad his gf wants him to shower or do anything that makes her life easier.

This country is legitimately one catalyst incident away from full blown civil war. Plenty of root cause is there. Only thing holding it back is that most people are still far too comfortable and have too much to lose. All it takes now is for something to happen that either makes people no longer comfortable (think major economic crash), or something that enrages one side so much taht they dontbcare anymore (trump assassination would do it for the right, mass incarceration of legal immigrants and naturalized citizens for the left, as examples).

Years ago I ripped the DKD soundtrack off YouTube by searching various things + also took requests from people here and then I renamed the files to basic, ordered numbers because that seemed to make the most sense. You can see this here:

https://fsdfsd.net/MarseyWorld/MarseyWorld/src/branch/master/files/assets/events/DKD/music

However

I want to add the Now Playing to the bottom of the page, a really small footer with a cute lil equalizer graphic or something beside it. This will apply to all holigays. But it's DKD right now so let's tackle that.

Identify the tracks, include a link to the youtube video it came from to prove you're not full of shit. 500 per track identified. Obviously tell me which file the link corresponds to.

Do as many or as few as you want, some are actually really easy like the fricking DKC Funky's Flights theme.

Be first or be broke.

Thank you me because this is all happening as I have had a tab open since yesterday morning with some sort of Kong remix playing and I need to know what it is because it's SO GOOD.
