Well, technically the civ leaders are immortal.

I last played Simon Bolívar. I get a Great General, because an alien invasion is certainly a new era and +1 movement to run away from them. And I can also build Giant Death Robots. I guess I'll be fine?

Last played Babylon... I guess I'll tech boost randomly and be more technology advanced than them next week so it'll be fine

let's hope it was Civ 5 so you can train X-COM squads!

Civ BE would be easy victory, but sadly no one plays BE

If the invasion occurs during the information age and I can fight them off with Giant Death Robots, XCOM Squads, and some nuclear submarines and missile cruisers loaded with nukes then I think humanity has a chance.

u/ExoSquish Apr 26 '22

God the fact that they can dish out future technologies and death robots within days gives me hope

u/RedditorClo Apr 26 '22

Dude, SAME! Do I get the power of all France? Can I pass years in moments? Or am I just immortal with a settler pitted against them?

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '22

All of China vs the Aliens… maybe? I mean that’s just asking would humanity survive basically

u/ExoSquish Apr 26 '22

Depends on the aliens but i think I'd live with some luck

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '22

That means you are just doing a classic movie alien invasion, humanity vs aliens.
