Oh.. I loved this music! This was when I started to send out my tanks to go destroy other civilizations. I hated when my tank would lose to a spearman though. That was always the ultimate fail!
Better than any song in Civ or Civ 5. Nothing beats rolling out an army of Tanks with this stuff playing. It's just like, "oh hey England, take a sec and marvel at the technological wonders of the German War Machine for a minute."
Double wow! I didn't know until last week that these videos were posted. I wrote and performed these song while working at Firaxis. I never knew that folks still listen to these songs. It makes my day! Thanks! Cromerzone
I once set up zulu war with england 100 impis vs 4 riflemen. \it was so realistic that 1 rifleman was left half injured. you can recreate history with this game and it makes sense
@FreeminderUK Sounds like you are outside my culture zone, which means you're a BARBARIAN! I'm going to have to airdrop my Modern Paratroopers to take care of you and your flimsy warband lol!
XD This song always reminds me of conquering the world. When I complete ALL technology, All other civilizations are halfway through the middle ages! I send Modern amours against pikeman! XD My Battle ships rape their galleys!
@hungryguy367 Try harder difficulty. No offense, but chieftain level is for pussies. I know what Im talking about because I used to play it a lot when I was younger. You don't start enjoying this game until you try it. Too easy makes things look boring. And Civ is not boring at all
@Empeinmortal LOL anything past chieftain and then all of a sudden, your neighboring civs quickly excel culturally, economically, diplomatically, and militarily. There's just no hope, man!
I disagree i regularly beat 8 computer players on a huge map on warlord
its not that hard just make sure you get smiths trading company and leonardos workshop if you get them both you practical won already
when you get to replaceable parts you should have a few good citys start cranking out infantry until you can produce modern armour and go and massacre the computer
ow and if you want to win by killing your openend change your goverment from democracy to fascism (no cicvil disorder)
@braytac Considering how long a typical game would take, I just didn't have the colossal patience to learn anything than I already did. Dynamically, Civ 3 was kickass except the combat. To this day, I don't understand how a medieval unit could damage, let alone kill, a modern armor tank(yet it has happened).
I am completely in awe of a track like this, especially on a Civ game. At this point in the game, you are on the verge of conquering the planet with these advanced weapons. I would always play the game just to listen to this, and now I don't have to. Playing is still tons of fun, though. =P
Man I remember how hard this game was when you didn't have steal, then coal, then oil, and finally uranium. Excellent game except corruption, pollution, and limited essential resources made the game a little frustrating.
Seems like on the game only 3 spots on the planet had that crap. Corruption is a problem in real life but, Im freezing my butt off right now wishing Global warming was real. Al Gore should invent real global warming.
@SpankBankLLC it's not global warming, it's climate change. What people don't realize is that it gets hotter in some places, and cools down in others. In the US it primarily gets hotter, so we (because it sounds flashier) call it "global warming"
Okay well I didn't mean right after 2000. I meant more specifically in the last 5 years or so. I know HL 2 had a pretty good sound track, not sure about those other 3 you listed though.
Ah...Great music. See I don't get what happened. In the 90s, video games had such great sound tracks. Sometime after 2000, it went down hill and has been like that ever since.
