[@empireofitalypsstimfromano5025]

The Scots Are Going To Be Offended

[@WhiteShadow01]

Fun fact- when the English were at war with the French, the French hated the English long bows so much that they threatened to cut off their middle and ring fingers, so they couldn't use their bows. So in battle, the English long bowmen would wave these fingers at the French soldiers. This was eventually shortened to only waving the middle finger. So the long bows that are so bad ass in this game actually historically invented flipping people off

[@theprisoner3]

I recall hearing that the middle finger was used in Ancient Greece as an insult as well.

[@2Falchion]

In Ancient Greece and Rome the middle finger was meant to be a penis when flipped, and the pointer and ring fingers were the testicles. This was very insulting to them

[@Duke0Forever]

Zayanz some also say that middle finger would be put by "doctors" of the time up in someone's ass to see if it's all good down there.

[@ddraigtantoixeniejir5964]

Hmmm, potentially through Civ4's domination victory, perhaps. - Conquest: Seeing as the world isnt' ruled over entirely by one country yet, nobody. - Domination: The British Empire got there first, but in modern times, China probably has this one. - Space Race: Probably the Soviet Union if you count the first man in space, America if you count first man on the moon. - Diplomatic: South Korea (if we're talking about right now), the UK if we're talking about who got a UN secretary-General first. - Cultural: At present, the United States, due to their vast influence on most of Western Society; if we're talking who got there first, most likely the Roman Empire. - Score: Now THAT one is tricky; take into account the current size, prosperity and advancement of each country, coupled with the wonders each nation has built and such, who would win at this present moment? I won't answer that, as there's probably enough fuel to accidentally make a flame war here already.

When you decide to give the Queen a Full Military Funeral and a Viking Burial.

[@adivtayudhatama3926]

I mean, technically, Queen Elizabeth is the Descendant of a viking named Rollo the Walker, soo yeah make sense

[@Bigfootuss]

capturing ships of the line with privateers while listening to this makes the plunder glorious

[@blackpowderuser373]

Argentinians heard this in 1982.

[@Matthew-yc2qr]

Yeah they didnt last long though

[@blackpowderuser373]

@Anglo Commando Talk about overkill. I think HMS Conqueror sinking the Veinticinco de Mayo aircraft carrier would have been an additional shock for the Argies.

[@agarjakendu]

And what was the sound track when the nazis were bombing you into oblivion right before Russia defeated them?

[@budakbaongsiah]

@@agarjakendu Bismarck's War Theme, obviously.

[@asombradomedo]

The argentinians put a hell of a fight on Britain,the brits thought that would be easy,but they got several losses to an Latin American country.

[@BuildGlines]

This is still one of the best tracks in this game

- "Would you be interested in a trade agreement with England?" Decline - "You day of judment will come" War music start play *I am scared!*

[@fakename5408]

In my first CIV game ever I played on huge earth on marathon speed. I ended up starting in Burma as England . Anyway, as I continued I found that the Philippines and the other islands of south east Asia had no civs on them, just ruins and barbs. I sent out a unit of spearmen with ship support to provide arty. Those spear men came back as great war infantry. Needless to say everything apart from cities was ganked during the game's classical and medieval era. There was something glorious about using this music as the Tommies slayed knight after knight. Oh Civ.

[@AlexHarrison-zv4jj]

Sleepytime has never been this intense.

[@danielgrizzlus3950]

These war themes need to come back in Civ 7.

[@muffingamingnl]

My favorite song from Civilization 5 :) I got my first domination victory using my ships of the line to crush my opponents. :D And i also like to listen to it when i study. I think it is a really good song to study with.

[@whensomethingcriesagain]

Love how the fife segment is the most replayed part. Viewers know what's up

[@therealinferno161]

Imagine having to hear this theme for 113 years just because the English monarch wanted to have another throne to sit in.

[@hasegawakodaka4020]

I'm terrified of her Ship of the Line. Caravels aren't enough to defeat her

[@Kenraali]

That is why you sink them with submarines. Or alternatively, fight with Frigates. AI is terrible at naval combat.

[@HustlerMitch]

Between this and the Russian war music, I'm not sure which one makes me want to crush my enemies more. This one makes me strategize and go more into focus and then be all subtle about my tactics. The Russian one makes me go brute force and destroy any and all resistance.

[@jonathankirintor8975]

England, Portugal, Indonesia and Spain have the most epic war themes in the game

[@pinklasagna8328]

Mongolia is also nice

[@XXXTENTAClON227]

“Your day of judgement will come.” Might just be the hardest line ever

[@yarasharaz]

The recorder/English flute was just an immature instrument for elementary school music classes before I listened to this. Now it heralds the arrival of an entire ship-of-the-line armada intent on bullying me into being interested in Lizzy's trade agreement.

[@kayness1]

the high note is the sound of whistling tea kettle

[@PhysiOSQuantum]

From what I've heard from Civ's Soundtrack this is one of the most "powerful" war themes where it gives that real feeling that war means war :P

[@ifm2181]

Anyone not listening to this during Brexit results is a common plebe.

[@TheHalcyonTwilight]

Although Brexit is kinda the exact opposite of this atm. Long way to go before we start civilising these bloody savages again. :P

[@ifm2181]

Gotta win the vote, maintain the win of the vote, stop the others from trying to rip the country apart in lieu of the maintained vote, disallow the EU ways to slip out of it, disallow the globalists the opportunity to isolate Britain... It's one small step for man, my friend. This is just one of many needed. It's more than most have done.

[@TheHalcyonTwilight]

Win what vote?

[@ifm2181]

The brexit vote, of course.

[@TheHalcyonTwilight]

Which side is "Win" to you?

[@MacLazer]

Would you be interested in a trade agreement with England?

[@TheHalcyonTwilight]

On my Lizzie playthrough, I didn't go full British Empire until I had XCOM squads. Imagine this music with paratrooping supersoldiers landing outside every enemy city, as Guided Missiles rain down and Battleship blockades cordon off half the planet. Just you wait, one day the Union Flag will fly over the world again! :P

[@jhutchyboy1]

Having all the power in the world and sending a cluster-fuck of power to deal with a small threat while we torture our enemies by laying siege down on their trade routes so they have no food or supplies. The true British way!

[@TheHalcyonTwilight]

The funniest part was the Zulu being the only nation that actualyl gave me trouble, until I turned all 12 of my core cities to making an XCOM squad a turn, that is.

[@KingOfClay]

The Bank of England secretly has influence in most affairs of the whole world, so maybe that will suffice for you.

[@TheHalcyonTwilight]

Nah, there's just more satisfaction on everyone putting a Union Flag on their flags. :P

[@Uroboro_Djinn]

Jamie MacDonald I'd rather an Egyptian emblem on all flags, thank you very much.

[@Alpinegremlin]

I love listening to this whilst my Ships of the Line bombard enemy cities during the Renaissance Era!

[@DarkKinghtrulz]

In my game I was playing as England and luckily I spawned on a big island with only two city states. This allowed me to spend more on ships than land units. Russia founded a city at the south of the island and this was a threat and it was in the renaissance era. I used 7 out of 16 Ship of the Lines to lay waste on her huge embarked invasion force. I took over the city she founded. Ship of the lines are really awesome. She gave up and asked for peace because I also started to bombard her land units on the coast. Being on an island alone can give advantages.

[@marcustulliuscicero5443]

Saran Vadlamudi What do you have against land units? The Longbowman is terrifying.

[@DarkKinghtrulz]

But I got spawned on a big island so I needed a small professional army and a large navy to defend the island. Same like what the UK did in the past.

[@Catalyticc]

1914: Germany and Russia declare war on each other. Britain like: Hm. Germany declares war on France, Britain like: eh? Germany invades Belgium. Britain like: awww heeel no. *this theme starts playing in Germany* *German war theme starts playing in Britain* Germany and Britain simultaneously: fuck.

[@Exodon2020]

Ewan Beattie That pretty much sums it up... There were also thoughts about an extended Schlieffen Plan among German High command which meant to also invade the Netherlands and terminate the possibility for the Brits to use it as a base to "Backstab" the German army.

[@LoganSewell83]

During the years of Victoria this song echoed 24 times a day; once a day in each time zone.

[@Match348]

I never noticed the flute section has the same leitmotif as I Vow to Thee/Jupiter. What an amazing soundtrack

[@JahJah-CleverHandle]

That’s because it’s based on the song.

[@nickmeredith002]

I absolutely adore this piece of music. It's a masterpiece

[@benjoblo]

Hear that? That is the harpsicord of doom and drums of despair! Prepare for much wailing and gnashing of teeth...

[@MiniGui98]

Roses are red, Violets are blue, Last time this music was heard, It ended all trade agreements with you.

[@zennoix9984]

This entire OST summarized in just one phrase: *"U 4KIN' WOT M8?! AY'LL BASH YER 4KIN' EADIN!!!"*

[@thepieruler]

forgot how much of an absolute banger this was

[@seulheejo7820]

This one is the best war theme in Civilization V I think.

[@rick7020]

I vow to thee, my country!

[@Konstantinsen]

Took me awhile to find this track. The flute and the strings bouncing together captivated me and at the time, I was playing as the Mongols when this track played. I thought it was an obscure/unnamed Mongol war theme...until I found this track here. Then I remembered that I was warring with England at the time.

[@sninctbur3726]

I am not too impressed by this war theme. It's thematic and all, but it doesn't hav-- 1:28 OHHHHHHHHHH SHIT I REGRET EVERYTHING I JUST SAID

[@Valencetheshireman927]

Which ones are you impressed by?

[@spigotsandcogs]

It makes Redcoats sound like a force of nature. I love it.
