      The worst that happened to me was when I made a defensive pact with a civ. Then another civ and their bribed civ states declared war on them, so I automatically declared war to all of those as per agreement of the defensive pact. Well it turned out that the civ I was allied with had declared that they were protecting one of those civ states, so they denounced me for declaring war on them even though I was merely honoring the agreement...
      This is why defensive pacts in Civ V might as well don't exist.

      As I understand it, in the original Civilization they programmed Gandhi to have something like "-1" aggression... which the computer didn't know what to do with and read as something outrageous like "155+" aggression... it also had something to do with the aggression only manifesting in the late game when nukes are involved. While a bug of massive proportions, Firaxis kept the joke running regarding Gandhi because: a) the Oppenheimer Bhagavad Gita quote b) India is a nuclear power in real life and (most importantly) c) it's freaking hilarious to imagine Gandhi (one of the most outwardly pacifist people in history) as a harbinger of nuclear death.

      @@Doctor_Robert Ganhi had an base aggression of 1/10 (the lowest). In the late game, Ganhi would always adopt Democracy as his form of Government, causing NPC aggression to lower by 2 points. So with Gandhi adopting Democracy, you ended up with a -1, causing the 8bit game to enter a stack underflow error to give him 255 aggression. 255 out of a possible 10^^. And about at the same time as choosing form of government happens, you would find yourself in the nuclear age.

    I remember being in an archipelago map playing as Japan, I was allied with Greece and the Celts in a war against England and China. Things were going well, I'd taken the last Chinese city and was pushing hard into English territory in a bloody ground war when the Greeks suddenly turned on me and took three of my outlying cities in a single turn. My first move after letting loose every curse word I know was to sign a peace with England and take stock of the situation. I already had reinforcements headed to the English front and decided that they'd be better served over there than recall them and risk losing them to the technologically and numerically superior Greek navy, besides it would take too long for them to arrive in any case.
    I judged the northern islands to be a lost cause and evacuated the troops from those to the home islands, and while I did lose a few on subsequent turns it was still better than losing the lot trying to defend them.
    Then I had my local naval forces conduct an immediate counter attack though after seeing that an assault by my surface fleet would be futile I relegated them to convoy escort and still lost them all almost immediately. My submarine fleet however performed much better and with that in mind ordered all of my shipyards to begin construction of entire fleets of them.
    The Greek navy didn't take kindly to that though and began systematically hunting them down. Luckily I was building them faster than they were being destroyed and between them and the Celtic battleships fighting them to a stalemate in the north I was able to regain naval supremacy and retake the occupied islands and fight my way into their territory... just in time for them to finish work on their rocket and claim a science victory

      I disagree with Australia.

      @@nicolaszan1845 to be fair I'm probably biased in this because of 2 reasons:
      1. Australia is a very young culture and in Civ I tend to play ancient cultures for most of my campaigns (probably the youngest countries I did campaigns with were the Netherlands and Russia - oh, and once or twice the Iroquis, so I guess they'd be the youngest! 😂) Can't really explain it but there is something special in seeing a flourishing sky-scrapper-ladden Aztec/Incan/Byzantine/Roman/Carthagian/pre-Abrahamic Egyptian atomic era empire of 300 million people plus... At least for me there's a kind of child-like joy in imagining how these nations evolved into modern times and how different their societies, values and ethos are from nation-states in our universe.
      ..
      2. I only pirated civ 6 to try it out a few months after release as I had heard mixed things about it, and back then the AI was dreadful. I could crank difficulty up to Emperor or Immortal (you know, the ones at which the AI cheats significantly) and they would usually eclipse me technologically and produce 3 times as many military units, but still be utterly incapable to use siege weapons and conquer one of my cities - is the AI finally good at waging war and can you get destroyed now on the highest difficulties? That wasn't hard in Civ IV and could happen in V, but in VI I felt the AI was so stupid it ruined my game immersion, so I never got to see the expansion that added in Australia and so on... I only played V since and thought maybe I'll get to VI if they fix the AI, but for a long while didn't find anything really suggesting that.
