I have reenacted the FALL of BABYLON - Civ 6 Persia TSL

[@BadVideoWatcher1]

You should declare a surprise war on a separate civ that's too far away from you to do anything in retaliation so that you can get Cyrus' buff to help you out in your war against Georgia

[@andrewklang809]

Cyrus: "If there's exploits afoot, I prefer it when I am the one providing the haXX!"

[@BZAsciimator]

Bro just invented North Korea 🤯

[@TedSCSI]

Ha! I wrote the same thing in a comment in previous video!

[@toppersundquist]

Shouting across the plains: "HEY! FUCK YOU BUDDY!" Distant shouting back: "FUCK YOU, TOO!" Soldiers: "Hey, I feel like running all of a sudden."

[@ClockworkOuroborous]

Oh, that's clever!

[@funcionarios]

29:13 "Thousands of Immortals marching across the Persian mountains, with bloodlust throing in their veins. The slaughter that is coming is going to be glorious! There is apprenticeship, it's +1 prodution for mines.🤓"

[@TG-to5nf]

I also laughed at that, the sudden shift down to talking about a better yield.

[@gabrieltorres5]

I replayed that 5 times 😂

[@XavierTheNeonTiger]

Thrumming 🤓

[@pinkpanther1395]

29:30 I can't believe he managed to make a Riemann Hypothesis joke in a Civ video. Props I guess.

[@JesperoTV]

"Props, I guess..." is about the extent of the reactions you can get off a number theory joke

[@damejanea.macdonald2371]

You did it! You got the thunderdome game but with a civ that is actually *supposed* to fight everything! Well done.

[@TurtleLover69527]

And no barbarian swarms this time around was huge

[@Mathmachine]

Potato has become that which every streamer fears they will eventually become...a roleplayer.

[@cardcone99gaming54]

Potato: “So anyways I started blasting!”

[@masterofgreymog5751]

Man, Kutasi putting an encampment right in that pass would be incredible.

[@tagesvaterpatrick8780]

"And he cried out with a strong voice, saying: "She has fallen! Babylon the great has fallen!" Revelation 18:2 😊

[@theflame5919]

That is about the future, not the past. A fall of major global superpower, who is much like Babylon of old; center of global commerce, power, and every decadent idea and practice. That power, will govern most of the Earth, indirectly, will be proud, vain, and all of humanity will be astounded then they suddenly fall, as none thought it possible. That the quote in Revelation you referencing, is what it's all about. A future event, near end of history. The actual Babylon, fallen without fighting, captured at night, by a kind of special operation. The City remained the most important City in the Persian Empire, and even beyond, for over a thousand years.

[@Shauma_llama]

Poor Gilgamesh, you tore through him like a tiger rampaging through a house of tissue paper.

[@milanvondelft268]

28:34 "Then we're going to surprise war Gilgamesh" - words not oft spoken by a Civ player. I'm heartbroken honestly.

[@alansebastian4293]

That cliffhanger last episode was brutal

[@cheer90099]

love this playthrough- sick at home with covid and this just came out at the perfect time

[@literallyamelon9776]

Omg same I came down with it yesterday. First time having it, REALLY SUCKS!

[@cheer90099]

same here ugh good to have something to watch at least lol@@literallyamelon9776

[@NACHO_-LIBRE]

I just rewatched 3 weeks of potato also down with covid.

[@MunkeeMazik]

I appreciate Potato's efforts to stay relatable to the math nerds with that reference to the Riemann zeta function.

[@Th4tWh1teKID]

I gave the vid a like just for that! ❤❤❤

[@romaricregnaud8662]

I really love the slower pace you are using on civ now. The way you get to explain everything, and your thoughts behind them just helps me enjoy the game more. Helps people progress a lot and even for more experienced players, it gives you time to think about what you’d do in that scenario which is only more engaging :)

[@gebus5633]

You postponed taking Ur to pillage the ziggurat, yet on the next turn you used the unit on the ziggurat to take Ur, and the ziggurat disappeared. Flawless!

[@danielkinney6518]

I have over 850 hours in this game, and I just now learned that stables give an XP bonus to siege units. Great video as always Potato!

[@Logan0503]

I’m really enjoying this series! One of my favorite games I’ve ever played was as Portugal on TSL Earth. I built 2 cities in Iberia, conquered North Africa, settled South Africa, and built a trading empire. TSL can be super fun, you really just have to have the right start.

[@ps.pabloramirez7820]

Sorry what means TSL?

[@beauxthechineseschnauzer]

@@ps.pabloramirez7820 true start location

[@niallbennett9582]

Potato saying this is his most fun domination game also potato every second domination game this is my most fun domination game

[@billyriemann2130]

I am playing an Australian game for a domination victory and I would have to say I got lucky playing a bunch of early game civs where I excelled in the modern era

[@alexjpbanks14]

Georgia did a pretty good job with the district placement on those cities you conquered

[@azerack955]

29:32 damn ok potato coming out with his math knowledge

[@TheLastSoundNL]

Lol! Those catapults are hilariously fast. I'm just laughing at the absurdity of it.

[@hibernacul]

I have a mod downloaded called Capture Unique Improvements that I really like. It helps your conquests retain the flavour of their original civilization, though you still can't build them yourself. Got a weird interaction with claiming tribal villages with your borders, though-you need to use a unit to claim them instead.

[@cafespy6906]

Range Finder!!! LOL! Ive been playing this game for YEARS and I honestly had no idea..wow, thanks for that Potato.

[@LAZERAK47V2]

I think it's really annoying and obnoxious that the aggressor can call a military emergency against the nation it invaded if they start losing. If anything, they shouldn't be able to do this until the Grievances start swinging the other way.

[@t.j.webster5545]

18:10 Look at me.... Look at me... I am the Spartans now

[@nahtanha]

Your innocent delight at the slaughter and mayhem as you ravage the map is very entertaining XD

[@lancecurley658]

I remember playing Civ Revolution on Xbox and forgot about how the CPU’s demanded techs from you. Would be cool if you could trade techs with civs before spies arrive.

[@kenniejp23]

"a critical strip, like the Reimann hypothesis". Fan-bloody-tastic! 🤣

[@smmsullivan34]

I'll talk to you guys very much! Yes, yes you will Mr. Spuds

[@ezshottah3732]

I love these tsl games. You should do them more often

[@user-ix8jk3zz1r]

that one byzantium warrior just trapped between borders the whole episode🤣🤣

[@Jack_Rakan]

I know it's probably a bit too late even if you read this comment right as I post it, but it may be a good idea to leave Eridu alive, and peace out Gilgamesh when it's his last city remaining. That way he'll get taken out by loyalty pressure, so you avoid the global grievances that come with killing off a player.

[@conorshaughnessy4912]

29:15 .... "A thousand nations of the Persian Empire descend upon you..." (Just don't brag about your arrows and the sun)

[@remyclarke4020]

Yes, just like the Riemann hypothesis. 29:33

[@Legault397]

3:40 Byzantium has captured Istanbul... strange

[@mikavituhandle]

the funniest part of the entire civ game is when an AI declares surprise war, uses its smug lines how you are a virus and the AI the cure or whatever-the-fuck. then 10 turns later the AI starts begging for peace every other turn on a "it was just a prank bro" levels.

[@chrism6209]

I just finished the first part, thank you for the upload!

[@devinpoissenot3184]

Potato making trebuchets but his people haven't invented bowls yet

[@nicksamek12]

Didn't expect the real = 1/2 line riemann deep cut, nice

[@OneMoreBurn]

Man, what a grind. I usually restart if I get to turn 100 and have that little science/culture.

[@andrewsercer9538]

Well, I mean you weren't wrong to say "I'll talk to you all very much" ... 😅😂

[@lucasweiss6837]

"we're overproducing infrastructure.....gotta place a pyrodezia and the theater square!"

[@basbekjenl]

That city next to Babylon is called Eshnunna. That is nice

[@T0tenkampf]

Nice, I just started a Cleo huge deity game and an AI civ was killed somewhere on turn 5...that's pretty darned quick!

[@Slokingseba]

Thank you for uploading!!!

[@simont390]

Damn, perfectly timed I literally just finished the previous vid 😅

[@toppersundquist]

These videos always make me want to start a ridiculous Domination game :D

[@f0rm0r]

I don't know why it annoys me when potato calls Tamar "he" when she is literally a process in a computer program

[@wolfhh4926]

This is so fun to watch. Its still unclear to me how Akkad's bonus combines with the immortals, does it work on their arrow attacks?

[@wolfhh4926]

Also that Reiman-Zeta joke was on point.

[@NickSteffen]

Since they are melee units, it applies to everything they do including ranged attacks. That said they do so little damage anyways it doesn’t matter that much and they are such good regular units it’s just great that you can slam them into the city and do full damage since you have so many of them. Normally you’d have to split your unit types up a bit but the immortal replaces ranged, melee and cavalry (when you have the bonus) So you just make a mountain of them.

[@frankiecedeno3724]

Conquest Mide mod has setting where you can take specific things like all abilities or just their unique unit or the Civ and leader ability. Also o think there is a different mod that lets you do exactly what you said Potato.

[@persianBoyyy]

Dude cyrus was first empire introduced human rights to the world . XD , but it was fun to watch😅🙏

[@mirandabee2323]

Did you leave in "I'll talk to you guys very much" because it's funny and true?

[@242georgioss]

everything is very fast in your gameplay i can't imagine myself playing that way !! i barely know what you are doing !

[@Gorgoj]

Nice Reimann hypothesis reference!

[@samueltrusik3251]

Oh boy, I love me some E X P A N S I O N !

[@eefaaf]

27:54 Gilgamesh jumped from 105 to 255 within turn 120... How?

[@sammiyearsley6634]

Why does this have all the vibes of that time Lady Six Sky cleared Potato out

[@jacobmv21]

28:47 absolutely rekt

[@Nippler]

Question, sorry if this has been asked before, how do you trade goods so easily and quickly with other civs? is this a mod?

[@simsim9z]

Question: Wouldn't it make sense to levy Akkads military to invade Gilgabro and using their swordsman for pillaging and using your own units to take the cities?

[@RMCbreezy]

Bought the tile when you were going to passively get it in like a couple turns xD its my tile and i need it NOW

[@svankensen]

When did the general appear? What does it do? It wasn't at the end of the last video, and it's here at the start!

[@tyg3ro]

The irony of immortals holding a pass...

[@Roiser101]

It's painful to watch units attack without a great general nearby))

[@SnowmanStudios75]

After what update did they start allowing immortals to melee attack cities?

[@jadekohler1109]

Immortals let's go!

[@Emmetlovesredvelvet13]

Hi potato love your content question how does one master nadar shah I like his design and concept but I don't really know where I'd like to go with him

Somewhere around 30 minutes, I was reminded that someone once told me the Irish are an over educated people. Buncha $10 words all in a row and the casual mention of a theory I've never heard of. Dang bro.... daaaang 😂
