I always love joining these games. Thanks for having me!

4 minutes in and England is already talking about conquering Hong Kong, nice rp from duncan

[@benallen4591]

So excited for this, glad the wait between seasons isn’t too long

[@TheHyny]

I think they were excited to start another game at the end of the last one.

[@Machiination]

Rythian so annoyed with Duncan's muttering, he made his voice the lowest volume in the recording.

[@Jayzor92]

Rythian: Either Ramsty or Kirbler alliance, we'll see which one works best. Alex and Kirsty (syncing up like a hivemind): I like Kirbler.

[@TeacupDragonEliade]

Duncan's start is kind of insane. A ton of 2/3 food tiles, luxury resources, and a city state.

[@jimmersc9789]

Sure, but he also cant expand anyway.

[@deeznoots6241]

[@Legionary219]

My favorite session they played was the one where Lewis was Polynesia on a Pangea map with islands. Lewis immediately spread out to the islands and proceeded to spend much of the early game fighting pirates and leveling his navy. Pyrion was England in that session and about into the midgame he decided he was going to finally contest Lewis for title of 'Boat King' after spending the early game on the mainland. Pyrion's completely green Navy was annihilated by Lewis' veteran navy and he pretty much lost the war for the title of Boat King immediately. Lewis would go on to win a science victory and it took like three players ganging up on him to lose his sole mainland city. Unfortunately this session was one of the purged ones.

[@williamvolz909]

That series was so good. One of lewis' best game

[@Spyro5500]

Why did some get purged?

[@Legionary219]

@Spyro5500 I don't recall the details, but there some real bad business with a now former member of the Yogscast. Enough that everything they were involved in was purged instead of retained.

[@Candlemancer]

Lewis is thinking of civ 6 polders. Civ 5 polders are built on marshes and floodplains

[@superguy911]

nah they play with the multiplayer balance mod called lekmod, it changes rng dependant abilities like polders

[@TheWhiteDragon3]

Funny how Rambler is playing the one civ that can reasonably do aggressive early overseas expansion and ends up on the one island you can put a bunch of cities on

[@CityState_of_Valletta]

That Grand Mesa looking great.

[@BleydXVI]

"Oman doesn't seem like a sea civ" While they technically could have walked to Zanzibar (well, mostly), I think they much preferred a different method of travel

"🎵The sultan of Oman lives in Zanzibar now🎵. That's just where he lives."

[@CharlesGrabham]

Bless your fucking souls, you brilliant bastards

[@theeutecticpoint]

5:52- I love this little moment with the editors and some of the behind the scenes things that happen in the series they edit.

[@Techstriker1]

Duncan, as England, being "I may have to take over Hong Kong" is quite fitting lol.

[@bl8976]

Alex the Rambler!!!!!! RAMFAM we eating good today

[@nessle420]

More civ so soon!!! fantastic news

[@art-games6230]

I love that civ is spelled wrong in the starting screen. Btw: the reason we in the Netherlands are orange is because one of the most important people in creating our independence from Spain (William of orange) was the prince of orange (a city in France) and therefore had orange as their family colour, his descendants are still the royal family today

[@skruffy7790]

You mean descendants right.

[@art-games6230]

@ yeah sorry, descendents

[@Facadeee]

Lewis was obviously kidding about the Dutch being orange "because they love gold!" You missed the joke. William of Orange is literally the leader of Netherlands in Civ V lmao

[@art-games6230]

@@Facadeee that doesn’t mean that I can’t give this information to people who might not have known that

[@SuperCactusman]

14:23 : The Yogscast's best Piety player spends over a minute instructing the overall best player on how to play a Piety game. 15:40 : Duncan complains that he doesn't have a Pantheon before Daltos or Lewis.

[@HuntMcD1]

Man Daltos is so much better than I remember him being, although I probably haven’t watched in a few years

[@jakethefakejake69]

The epilogue for Llamas with Hats came out like a month or so ago iirc. CAAAAARRRRLLLLL!!!

[@liamwood4331]

hell yeah nothing better than coming home to a new civ series

[@tedsmith6385]

Daltos has a desert hills cap with Marble, holy shit that Petra is going to be amazing, it will be such a tragedy if he doesnt get petra this game

[@LarsMacReady]

Huzah! Another Yogs civ session is upon us! I remember going to the Yogscast website back in the day to see the second video early. thanks again for the laughs over the years

[@Dacamster101]

most exciting part was seeing alex the rambler return, followed by the teamup with kirsty !! All hail our future overlords

[@tacticalturtlez4906]

Yogs: alright guys. We’re doing tiny islands ocean map. Rambler: I’m going to do what’s called a pro gamer move.

[@theformalmooshroom9147]

The irony of Daltos saying "we'll yell about it" in reference to the turn timer is hilarious given how he was last game.

[@Squeegi01]

Man, Daltos became an expert in this game (as evidenced by his last win). Exciting to watch! You guys are awesome.

[@moonshot9056]

Well that was quick, been feeling shittier lately so much appreciated.

[@bierrollerful]

Thank you for showing us everyone's loading screens so that we can read their civ's abilities 💙

[@xtrasquish]

Duncan apparently doesn't know - If you build a monument and then pick tradition, you get a free amphitheater instead. (once you unlock them, ofc) I once got a free amphitheater in 2 of my cities lol

[@BadVideoWatcher1]

Hell yeah, this is the only channel I follow that uploads early enough for me to have something to watch with breakfast

[@twiss9341]

YES thank you beautiful souls for continue these Covid V content (Auto correct but will keep it anyway!)

[@SWElewa]

Nice! Civ V lekmod is hands down the best civ multiplayer experiance. Sure there are faults. I just hope civ 7 can hold up. (but i doubt it)

[@nicksamek12]

Hoping this series is as good as the previous series!

[@leoslack6104]

Love these games, more civ is good civ

[@eloquentlyemma]

I’m rooting for the Kirbler alliance!

[@ouzosaurus9470]

YES more civ, inject it straight into my veins

[@louish5068]

So hyped for another series so soon

[@Voffen12345]

The DISRESPECT from Rythian! Swapping away from Norway like that!

[@Erufailon42]

Oman used to be a trading hub in the Indian ocean connecting India to the Arabic world. So it makes sense that it's a seafaring civ.

[@Haroogle]

Long Live the Kirbler alliance o7

[@Creeder4]

lovin these games, pals.

[@puff7145]

Interesting to see how this game will play out with Zylus taking Lewis's place this time. 100% win rate, don't giga alliance me guysh!

[@beepbop6542]

Daltos start is insane, especially with how this mod buffs water tiles. He has to get Petra though!

[@TheAwes0meo]

I discovered recently there is a mod that lets you play as RTGame leading West Virginia civ. Would be funny to see RT play it.

[@hendas9763]

The Turn 5 Team-up! Mighty Kirbler is founded 🎉

[@mehiskortel6435]

Cant wait to see which of these players will build a lighthouse last. Sailing on turn 47.... Guarantee that daltos kills half of the world with a galleas/frigate timing.

[@heathgates2840]

I get locked up for 2 years come back and Lewis has no idea whats going on and Daltos is teaching everyone, boy have things changed.

[@starpackson2nd774]

Worked at a Crumbl for two years, Daltos is right on the money. They're getting in trouble for labor law violations, I personally was never granted an official lunch break. Told to take a break when it's "chill" but i was working there when it was "viral". Working up front at one of the more popular locations, queue ticket timer went for hours. Ruined a lot of people's day...

[@Scandic45]

If Daltos builds a second city on the Iron next to the stone it's going to be a good city! Rambler has amazing spawn i hope he builds on that!

[@lethalclips1234]

Streamer panel is great but you know what is even greater? Tile yields xD

[@markmeleka]

Gold member was Dutch, Doctor Evil was the one who was Belgium, or actually his evil adoptive parents were.

i watch these often and had no clue rythian edited them

[@rennaaa6667]

[@naphackDT]

Kind of ironic that the guy who starts with the ability to embark gets to start on the biggest island.

Duncan has a big advantage with ship of the line. Navy game should be more militaristic

[@dracon525]

It's a shame most of the players are too caught up in the 'best plays'. Many of them have several city locations but they won't take them because they're not 100% optimal. Eg: Some of them can fit 4 cities on their starting islands!

[@Franzibald_]
