All in a standard game with a ranked ruleset. This video is from my perspective as the Zulu race, and is sped up 650% in order to fit in as one video on Youtube. The chipmunk sounds you'll hear are from people talking, although I tried to cover it up a bit with some soothing music. ;)

You'll see some ups and downs, overall I had an extremely bad start, and gained almost no gold compared to what I usually get very early in the game. I had to abandon Galley plans to protect myself from a horseman rush, and then head to deal with MrGameTheory's Megacity strategy with the Romans.

Overall a very good game though, and it was very intense throughout. I felt bad eliminating Miz as quickly as I did, but it turns out he was getting artifacts and had already switched to Fundamentalism after getting a Pyramid. If I didn't take him out then, I'd have been in deep trouble given my financial situation.

Normally I would have had much more gold, a second expansion city, and at least two enemy cities in the early game. The map was tough though, with very little gold available in huts / barb camps, and good choke points for Rome to fortify.

At the late stage of the game, the Aztec leader became stuck on my screen after a re-sync. This is a bug that has been reported.

You're using the Zulu, it's not impressive in the slightest, they are a cheap civ that any moron can use effectively.

@EnglishHuscarl This was when the game was very new, and before everyone started copying my style. At that time I was the only regular Zulu player, the top 25 were everything but and Zulus were considered weak.

Also if you actually watched the video you'd see that I did not get a good start at all. Zulus have to get their warrior armies out early and get all the barbs / goodie huts, but there were very few near me. I was also going against two other top players of the time.

[EnglishHuscarl]

@MaskedGamer I've had this game since it first came out, the Zulu have never been considered weak. You've lost all credibility by saying such a stupid thing, their ancient bonus has always been huge in a turn based strategy game, huge and glaringly obvious.

[MaskedGamer]

@EnglishHuscarl Considering that I managed to play somewhere around 140 ranked games in the first couple of months yes I am pretty sure here that they were considered weak. I had debates with the top players, and I do not ever recall seeing your name anywhere on the official forums, civfanatics, etc. I know what I'm talking about here.

The only reason other people started playing Zulu actively is because they saw my warrior rushes. Until then people considered Zulu warrior armies weak.

I hate how some people think this game looks stupid just because its toony and rated E. I'll tell you, this is one of my favorite games of all time.

[hetalialuver298]

First wats up with Montezuma on the screen almost half the time, and also why would you pick the Zulu.If your gonna get in the top 10 like me use the Romans or a really strong civilization.

[237kitty]

I LIKE ROMANS THEYRULE

[maosef]

I disagree with you having a tough start, you seemed to get good city captures, and if you didn't have a good start I believe it would have been characterized by another player capturing thebes.

My gamertag is ABG blitzkrieg, never really played civ revs, was too late to the party. However I played Halo wars so i know good a player Miz(hes pretty good at sc2 now as well) so kudos for beating him, and an enjoyable game overall.

[xIReAcTiionSx]
