* The quotes you get when you unlock a technology are frequently badass, especially in ''Civ IV'' and ''Civ V'', where they're voiced by Creator/LeonardNimoy and Morgan Sheppard respectively. One from ''V'', however, deserves special mention. Upon researching [[LaserSight Lasers]], and thus unlocking [[InfinityMinusOneSword Modern]] [[TankGoodness Armor]] and [[CoolPlane Jet Fighters]], you're treated to the following:
-->''"The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light." - [[AsTheGoodBookSays The Holy Bible: Romans 13:12]]''

* Someone by the name of Lycerius has been playing a ''Civ II'' game (known as [[http://www.reddit.com/r/theeternalwar/ The Eternal War]]) for ten years. [[ForeverWar The result of said ten years?]] A Grade A CrapsackWorld. A three-way power struggle between super powers fighting for resources and the front lines have not changed in 1,000 years. Places are nuked again and again just as radiation starts to disappear and [[KillEmAll people are dying by the droves.]] Yet the player's [[{{Determinator}} dedication]] is incredible. On a brighter note, [[WorldOfBadass Vikings with nukes]] are pretty awesome once you get past how depressing that world is. Lycerius has been getting hundreds of responses and suggestions on how to end the war that has been going on for thousands of years and he has plans to try to stop it and get to clean up.
** Update: One of the three civilizations has been wiped out and [[HopeSpot the environment is finally getting repaired.]] [[AWorldHalfFull After a thousand years of war, things are starting to get better]]...
** More notably, others are picking up where Lycerius left off to try and make the world better. [[http://www.reddit.com/r/theeternalwar/comments/1os2g4/4300_71_years_world_peace_part_1/ Some have succeeded.]]
** [[HappyEndingOverride However]], ''[[FaceHeelTurn Lycerius himself]]'' [[http://www.reddit.com/r/theeternalwar/comments/1g6jcd/update_to_the_eternal_war_11_year_old_civ_ii_game/ seems to have gone off the deep end.]]

* Try out your favorite utter failure of a tactic: From [[UsefulNotes/NapoleonBonaparte attacking Russia on land]] to a [[UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler war on two fronts]], your skill and the difficulty level can mean the difference between [[EpicFail perfect reenactment]] and massive success.
* Beating another Civ at their own game: snatching Wonders from underneath Egypt's nose, taking your armies to Berlin and wiping Bismarck off the map, all have a glorious sense of irony along with the triumph.
* Some of the mods for ''Civ V'' are pretty cool, especially the fanmade Civilizations you can play as. They actually made a ''[[https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=207117800 Madoka Pack]]''. And yes, it includes ''[[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagicaTheMovieRebellion Rebellion]]'', meaning you can play as [[EnsembleDarkhorse Nagisa Momoe]] and create a glorious cheese-based empire, or perhaps play as [[GodOfEvil Akuma Homura]], building a [[GildedCage utopia]] of comfort on the backs of [[LaserGuidedKarma Incubator slaves.]]

* In a meta-related example, as mentioned on the main page, ''Civ 4'' becoming the first video game to win a Grammy for "Baba Yetu". Granted, it's a part of the "Videogames Live" tour as opposed to from the game itself, but still, it's a huge step towards the Grammies recognizing video game music.
