- Carl, probably
Civ5 is a complicated game with many different routes to victory...and also many different routes to failure. But what if we didn't care about any of that? What if we just let the game decide all of our decisions for us?
Can you beat Civilization 5 with only the advisor suggetsions? Time to find out what.

My father was a boat mornon, my mother denounced Venice. I don't know what that makes me, but it probably involves Gondolas.
Yah! Fuck Venice, all my homies hate Venice!
All I know is we want Whales!
What about the non doctrine Row Boaters?
Any DM reference is a good reference, especially if it reminds us to denounce Venice... They're even worse then crabs.

The cultural advisor recommending researching nuclear bombs gives an interesting take on interacting with other cultures
With the military you can travel the world, see exotic lands, meet people of interesting and exciting new cultures- ..and kill them!
Clearly they were converted to the church of the Firebomb Goddess
@@QQ-yi6yg "Join the army, see the world... and bomb it!"
Military Advisor: “We should research radar.”
Cultural Advisor: “I would suggest researching Atomic Theory instead.”
Military Advisor: *Nervous sweating*
I'm still trying to get past the idea that lemon got a culture win as nukes were being developed...
Having a "plan B" never hurts. You know, to make sure that everyone living on the planet acknowledges that the remaining culture is clearly the best one that they can choose.
First game I won with the achievement "Rocking the Free World". Which you get by getting a culture victory with the "Freedom" civic. I won it by erasing Poland from existence because they didn't like my culture. Also won a culture victory by nuking the one civilization that didn't accept it out of existence. Getting a proper hard culture victory is almost impossible in Civ 5.
Unless you tun something like the No-Quitters "balance" mod. Which makes hard culture possible, even competitive, in the higher difficulties.
It’s a culture of fire, fire and brimstone. And to disagree is to be fuel for the fire.

They will respect us for our culture....OR FACE NUCLEAR ANNIHILATION
Won't lie, following the advisors is pretty much the only way I've ever played Civilisation.
Didn't realise it qualified as a challenge run, huh! Awesome!
Meanwhile i have only entirely disregarded them in my games
@@Jesus_Offical yes because they dont plan ahead, they think you need what is most important RIGHT NOW.
they are good for noobs to learn the game imo on low difficulties.
It's not really a challenge; the advisors can basically give you a heads up on whether or not someone is going to war with you, and have knowledge outside your sphere.
@@soundrogue4472 basically extra knowledge panel
@@soundrogue4472frankly the ai is not even remotely subtle about their war plans. Its usually pretty clear when they intend to throw down regardless
I appreciate Lemon being so kind as to assist Carl in his first run on the channel. Shame that he went all murdery at the end though.
Nice to see Lemon is a fan of Door Monster with all these references
You mean White Lightning?
@@petar4209 they renamed themselves to door monster years ago.
@@sonoftheviper__4304 Why? They only sounded like a white supremacist group
Nice opening quote! My favorite is from a series called A Practical Guide To Evil, and it goes like this: "never mistake doing good for striking at evil, lest your 'good' become the act of striking"
(Paraphrased, but still.)
I love PGTE
Practical guide to evil for te win!
Cho sve noc.
@@chewgd SA VREDE?
That quote you made is like, Monotheism in a nutshell
Ah yes, The Four Carls, my favourite boss from Carl Souls
Caaaaaaaaaaarl! That kills people!
Reminds me of playing Simcity 3000 and 4 and trying to just do what the advisers say. Their sigh of disappointment when you refuse to give them gold plated toilets was music to my ears.
Damn you are really lucky
“And so the firebomb shall become its own fiery will, and bask all in its radiance. This is its eventuality; we need only direct the flames where to go.”
Firebomb Academy, 1.4.2.
Very unique challenge run. Hope to see more of these!
If you ever played the game game Against the Storm? If so, have you considered a “Normal Glade only” run?
I would like to thank you for posting this comment. I had never head of "Against The Storm" before reading it, impulse bought it, and now have a new favourite game.
Wow, it's been a hot minute since I've seen Civ 5 played without BNW, let alone an old-school culture victory! This as a whole took me back, I'd love to see more Civ challenge runs! Maybe a similar thing in 6, or perhaps a classic like a (non-Venice) one city challenge?
I never saw Vanilla played before. I was late to the party and bought the whole package. I thought different menu screen was some sort of a mod/replacer only after seeing less buildings I realised what it was.
so thats why he somehow has 164 happiness or am i just horrible at the game?
@@Harsh-tf9he I imagine difficulty level would have something to do with it too, but yes. BNW rebalanced happiness because of nonsense like that.
@@Kazmahu how did it work before BNW?
@@_lprenzo0808_ You just had to complete any 5 culture trees completely (Freedom, Autocracy, and Order were mutually exclusive but otherwise the same as the other trees here) and then perform the Utopia Project in one of your cities. Lemon was clearly producing enough culture to max out the trees then at least one advisor would've recommended going right for the win.
Not at all the game or challenge I expected to see, but I'm all for it! Love me some CIV and never even considered a challenge run in these types of games.
13:00 “Sorry Warsaw, wrong place, wrong time” sums up Poland’s history pretty well
This was the most out of the blue run I've seen from you Lemon and I friggin love the video
I love the mechanicus 40k soundtrack so much! Great music choice and very fun challenge run to watch!
THAT'S WHERE IT'S FROM!! I was wracking my brain trying to remember. Thanks.
@@Galeanthropist I loved the soundtrack so much and listened to it a bunch outside of the game so I instantly recognize it every time haha
@@Galeanthropist I also recommend "Noosphere".... absolute godlike music!
7:12 "Boat Mormonism" Nice to hear a subtle shoutout to Door Monster 😊
How did you become so overwhelmingly advanced beyond your neighbors while making such... inspired gameplay decisions?
Also, did you bend space time to fit so much Civ V into such a short video? Is it tomorrow and I just haven't noticed yet? How many hours did I loose this time? What even is time when compared to the unending, unerring, unescapable one more turn?
Also also, how did you get the other civs to actually offer you something to make peace with them??? Usually I sweep through their lands, taking any city I fancy, laying waste to their armies and as I watch them start sharpening sticks as a last desperate attempt to fend me off, they sue for peace, demanding half my GDP in gold, a plethora of luxuries and a few of my richest cities just to solidify their imagined dominance. I'll reverse the offer and then dispatch an obligatory "So you have chosen death?" letter when they inevitably decline.
lets play multiplayer
He made multiple. Like say cheeseland when he built his first city. Man its brilliant
Just One More Turn...
Jokes aside, love Civ 5 so looking forward to this. Probably the only game I regularly mod too.
Age of Empires music while playing Civilization? Nice.
Purple tiles in the tile purchase screen are not suggestions, they're indications of where the city will naturally grow to next
I don’t know why but the Jimmy light spirits joke caught me off guard and had me giggling like a schoolgirl
Civ 5 was my favorite. Played it many times in my childhood. Pure nostalgia
Oh man, watching someone play Civ 5 without any of the expansions is such a trip. So many features and so much content not added yet.
When life gives you Lemon, FIRE BOMB!
The music from Mechanicus - was a cherry on top of this video. Very appropriate.
I love civ 5. Easily my most-played game outside of live service games. Pretty awesome (and surprising) that you did a challenge run on it
I cannot describe how excited I am to see you play my favourite game I never would have dreamed ❤️
13:00 "Sorry Warsaw - wrong place, wrong time." - My Polish soul has felt that
Love the narrative going on here. I'd not be opposed to seeing more little bits of "lore" and stuff in future content.
I love the animated characters storyline in the background of the videos it never ceases to not make me laugh
It’s great to see you branching out in terms of what games you’re playing!!
I love the door monster references
And even more the joke that is a Boat Morman liberating Sweden
Just, beautiful.
Man I love the mechanicus music. Every time I hear it in a video it brings a smile to my face.
"Sorry Warsaw, wrong place wrong time" Basically the entire history of Poland
Door Monster references.
Door Monster references everywhere.
:D
I know basically nothing about the civilization series besides Gandhi, but I clicked as soon as I saw it, Lemon's voice is just great.
"Oh my god the Carl's were right!" - that moment when the puppet fully buys in XD
A challenge run of my most played game ever
That Amazing Island song caught me so off guard.
I was sitting here going "its so familiar but I can't put my finger on it... Something deep rooted in my mind from long ago"
Somehow, this channels videos always end up being fire related, it's a curse or blessing
Y’know what, I’ve been a lurker enjoying the backlogs for a while now - I thought it time to leave a comment and help the algorithm 🤙🏻
Good to see door monster has reached this channel as well
I love your continuous descent into Eldritch madness
The purple bordered tiles are what your city will expand into on it's own over time.
I absolutely love watching the channel lore develop from video to video! I know that we all appreciate the amount of work you put into making this content!
Mate no offense but it is spelled lore
@@depressedgwyndolin Lol! Thanks for telling me.
Have a good day!
@@brozo104 you too
I haven't seen expansion-less Civ V in SO long, this video was weirdly nostalgic
That was way more entertaining than i thought it would be, good shit man!
I loved hearing the Age of Empires soundtrack in the middle of the video. I had to pause and think "wait is this actually part of Civs music?" Lmao
the Real Lemon meta narrative is my favorite running gag in your channel.
Love the choice of the Adeptus Mechanicus track at the end there
I love that you're branching out from just souls-like games, more Civ challenge runs pls Mr Lemon!
Age of Empires music is so good that any other strategy game immediately loses its track. I approve
I really appreciate the mechanicus music . It fit perfectly
Seeing un DLCed Civ 5 really brings back memories. My friends and I still play it regularly just with all dlcs unlocked so the game works completly different from the vanilla version, but it was great to watch either way :3
Haven't watched yet but that title fills me such dread, I shudder to imagine what I'm about to witness
Edit: the mechanicus soundtrack at the end was perfect
Is that a door monster reference I hear. I found one of my people. Death to Venice. Long live Cheeseland. Praise the Boat Mormons.
Starts with a great lighthouse that will burn away the fogs, ends with nuclear theory that will burn away everything. He forshadowed it from the start what a chad of a story teller
The music choice in this video was astonishingly good
Now *this* is a challenge! And a Boat Mormons reference!!! Excellent.
Mechanicus track at the end was a nice touch
"The real Lemon"
The one you burn life's house down with? Would be appropriate, considering this channel's lore
Me and my friends do something similar in Crusader Kings 3. There are only 6 of us so go into teams of 2 and have the 2nd person not play the game directly and the players advisor, the person working as the advisor swaps between teams every hour for some bonus chaos of knowing how your old city is expanding lol. Even get drinking involved on quiet nights
Praise be to the fire goddes and the omnimessiah
Oh man, the nostalgia I felt from hearing the Amazing Island music in the vid.
"Wake me up when you need help deciding how best to worship the sea."
Oh, so when we get enough faith to form a Pantheon?
I love how this was the first thing suggested to me
I like that you're branching out to different games.
Cheeseland, Boat Mormons, please let Venice be in this playthrough.
14:15 Mechanicus OST ? damn that's real nice !
13:01
"sorry warsaw, wrong place, wrong time"
💀
Advisor : (exists)
Ruler : ADVISE ME HARDE-[data expunged]
Ooh, this is fun! I like the idea behind this challenge! I might do my own version of this at some point!
The land screen isn't an advisor suggestion though, the purple hexes tell you where your city will expand when it gets enough culture to expand. So you didn't need to buy all those hexes for this challenge! :D
You know, I absolutely love that fact is starting to develop in-video lore about himself
Between the Boat Mormonism references, base game Civ 5, and the AoE2 music, this video took me back lmao
Earned a sub 😂
This could totally be called "the puppet" run xD
One of my new favorite RUclipsrs playing one of my new favorite games? Count me in
Also I never knew you could automate units so thanks
Love the Mechanicus ost making an appearance
The purple tiles on the purchase land screen is actually just the tiles that you're about to get through natural border growth. They are just discounted as a result.
Also contrary to popular belief, city growth can NOT see resources you don't have access too, it just picks the best tile(s) around you that you can currently see to grow into. Mountains and Ice being the worst tiles to expand into.
I had an Anton Ego- like flashback with the Age of Empires music in the backround! Guess I'm gonna play that again
None must speak of the real Lemon- * disappears into nothingness by something before I could say anything else*
Love this so much! Also i know youtube algorithm hates branching out but i would love to see more games that are not fromsoft on this channel
Nice touch throwing children of the omnisiah in there.
Oh wow the Age of Empires 1 music hit me like a ton of bricks.
Oh like *insert politics joke*
Frigate over Ironclad: Ironclads cant cross oceans and are slower. If you are to engage in a War of Conquest in overseas it is advisable to have a Navy that allows you to operate offensively.
My man’s a door monster fan!! Ight ultimate colab time
Best civ is Korea. All hail the science rush!
P.S. I _highly_ recommend G&K and BNW if you don't have them already.
P.P.S. Quick Movement and to a lesser extent Quick Combat should _always_ be on.
I heard that "children of the omnissiah" playing at the end!
Now you should play Mechanicus with melee only!
My god as soon as I saw the title I already knew this is gonna be rough
Loved the Door Monster references!
MORE! we need more of this epicness! Thank you for a great vid. Much respect
TaK
Nothing like warming your hands on the glowing embers of the other civilications capitol on a warm summers eve…
It's a good day when Lemon indulges in Pyromania
Lemon almost dropped the ultimate firebomb
Little did Lemon know, he was employing the will of THE FOUR CARLS OF THE APOCALYPSE
I've just start playing civ games and lemons is uploading it? What a happy coincidence!
I now need the door monster backlogs crossover
I love all the civ games so much, and love the channel, what a good combo
Definite upvote for the Cheeseland and Boat Mormons!
The real Lemon? Should we question that...? Nah, probably fine.
you are the only other person that i've seen even mention that, even if we ignore this one, there have been references to it with the ad guy
I think the advisors do sometimes recommend different social policies, the military advisor would recommend Honor, whilst the economic advisor would push for Liberty and the cultural advisor for tradition.
So, yeah.
