** In Civ V, the AI has various traits between 1~10 scores. Different leaders had different "tendencies" in these scores which vary between games by 1-2 points in either direction, for example America's likelihood to conquer city-states is an average 4 but between games can vary between 2 and 6 in value. The reason iam saying all this? Mahatma Ghandi's Use Of Nukes score in Civ 5 is a 12! in a 10-rank system!

-->''The “mech” is a [[HumongousMecha giant bipedal mechanical robot]] armed with a [[MacrossMissileMassacre variety of missiles]], [[GatlingGood Gatling gun arms]], [[EyeBeams laser-beam eyes]], and a deadly kung-fu punch. Although not currently found on the modern battlefield, no doubt across the world governments and evil corporations are secretly developing these metal behemoths even as we speak. When these mechs come into service, all of the world’s other weaponry will become obsolete, and humanity’s fate will be decided by a climactic battle between armies of good and evil mechs in the streets of downtown [[TokyoIsTheCenterOfTheUniverse Tokyo]]. (Assuming that the [[{{Godzilla}} giant radioactive monsters]] don’t get us first.)''
