I haven't played the older ones besides Civilization IV, but I did look into some gameplay videos out of curiosity. If I recall correctly, the first game is where the Gandhi Nuke bug occured, which is why he is now always Nuke-happy in later games, as an inside reference.

Could you give me a link with that video? I've never noticed in game any Gandhi Nuke bug, sounds interesting :p

I got that piece of information from this article, not from a gameplay video. Apparently, his aggression level was set to a minimum amount, which caused an overflow to maximum when diplomatic bonuses were in effect. In later games they added that deliberately, e.g. in Civilization V his Nuke Production and Use of Nukes values are set to 12 (the maximum is 10).

I can't actually confirm when or how it happens in the original Civilization, as I didn't play the game, nor have I seen videos of that bug. You might want to test it out :D

Interesting thread.
When it comes to gaming, personally, i like diversity.
Also played various strategy games, but never really embraced pure turn based strategy titles to be honest (real-time is better imo).
I have "Napoleon: Total War" on steam, if someone is interested in a round you can send me a PM :)
Furthermore im huge fan of the Hitman series and also the GTA franchise.
For other new games i have to admit im not very active... my active FPS PvP times are history. Have played Battlefield, Counterstrike and a rather unknown game called Vietcong. With the latter i even was member in an ESL clan back then (omg just realized that must have been more than 10 years ago).
For COOP players that appreciate aged games and can accept the outdated graphics, Vietcong might still be worth a look btw. There must be hundreds (and thats not even exaggerated) of custom coop maps out there for this game. The community is still active and patched that game for newer OS, also keeping a new master server online to this very day:
https://vietcong1.eu/en/game/#
VC-Starter 1.7beta
But maybe thats just nostalgia speaking :)

Also playing racing games from time to time, mostly simulations and mostly offline singleplayer ...
well as i said - i like diversity :)

Greetings

wow, really like you for showing me this article ! such interesting thing... i also noticed that Gandhi is too aggressive, but never thought it can be a bug of the game. Very fun and interesting thing :)

Well, that's up to you. :lol:

Though if I feel like killing some zombies, I'll join you in L4D2. :)

I play TOR too! You'll have to give me your character names, are you on Pub or Empire or both :p

As for me, I play TOR as mentioned, STO, Borderlands 2, not much else atm. Occasionally I dive into memory lane and play some Mass Effect, but between work and college, I don't have much free time to get into any new games. Always have time for |SOG| though :D

If Star Citizen ever comes out and I have my new PC by then, I'll likely get hardcore into that.
