Joan of Arc is too sexy

Alexander's Horse · December 2, 2001, 20:14

I'm having trouble attacking her because she is just waaayy too cute.

Every time I declare war on the French I feel bad. I feel like asking her what she's doing after the game

Sarxis · December 2, 2001, 20:22

I feel the same way about QEI... what's wrong with me??

Dauphin · December 2, 2001, 20:24

You have strange taste in pixels.

A very good attitude. Especially after the Davis Cup this last weekend.

GodSpawn · December 2, 2001, 20:46

I just love that Catherine the Great - mm mmm, tasty.

(What's all that business about her and the horse, and how she died, then...)

Well I have a habit of playing either Chinese or Zulu and I must admit I tend to leave joany alone once i've crushed those between me and her I normally turn to the America's....

can't think why I should be reluctant to crush the French

the horse thing seemed to be Big hoax

Cleopatra is the cutest. She is hiding from me in this new game.

Dr. Nick · December 2, 2001, 22:52

Joan of Arc just gives me more of a desire to attack France and brutally ravish her.

ajbera · December 2, 2001, 23:10

Jean d'Arc is a cutie, but I've considered swapping her pics for the most beautiful French woman alive...

...not Catherine Deneuve (though she's another babe)...

...Laetitia Casta

Although if I did that, I would a) never attack her, b) constantly be waging war against those bastards who do attack her, and c) opening the diplomacy window to chat every turn and give her gold and techs and goods and cities and stuff just so she'll smile at me.

God, I'm pathetic.

Alexander's Horse · December 2, 2001, 23:26

Yes - that's problem. Whenever I trade with her if she says the offer isn't good enough I just have to give her more stuff

Gatekeeper · December 2, 2001, 23:52

Everyone:

Hmm ... I'd say it's a good thing the AI can't take advantage of this oh-so-human weakness regarding looks. If it could, you'd see half-naked female AI leaders and crushed, smoldering human player civilizations.

I think my mind has been thoroughly soiled by reading this thread.

Will I ever be the same????

I'm not quite sure I see what'd be wrong with that

raiseupx · December 3, 2001, 02:08

if you are fantasizing about a computer animation then you are either a) a damn weirdo or b) not had any p*ssy in too long

Alexander's Horse · December 3, 2001, 02:11

OTOH, Catherine the Great looks likes a stony faced old biddy - I never give her anything.

Alex 14 · December 3, 2001, 03:07

Joan of Arc always comes first in a game against other AI, I have no idea why, but the French have never come third in a game i've played.

Trifna · December 3, 2001, 03:26

Seems as we're all REALLY absorbed by the game and doing some kind of role playing. I was kindda same in SMAC with the Gaians

Me too, and I've figured out why I (we?) do it. Basically, the artist that did the graphics for the queen I think used the last scene in the 1998 movie Eliabeth, starring Cate Blanchett, who (in my world at least) = very sexy.
So when I hear "I'm late for my milk-bath" subconsciously I'm thinking about naked Cate Blanchett in a bathtub full of milk.

Consciously of course, that comes out as "The English look too strong, I think I'll kill the Indians first"

Well when you work out who the artists inspiration was for Joan of Arc let me know *blink*

AH, control yourself! You're a married horse!

dconner · December 3, 2001, 15:41

Does anybody know what the deal is with Jeanne d'Arc's "modern era" look? The Sinead O'Connor bald-chick thing? Not sure I get the concept there. I think she's pretty fetching in the 19th century military uniform, though....

Dire Wolf · December 3, 2001, 15:54

I think the "bald" modern look is fashioned after that movie that starred Demi Moore, where she goes and joins the Navy Seals or something to prove that a woman can do anything a man can.

Deathray · December 3, 2001, 16:07

Hmm, Joan of Arc looks like a freak. I always make a special effort to crush certain civs. Firstlu the Americans, just because. Secondly the French, for the same reason. Lastly the Zulus, because they always end up annoying me with their expansionism early on.

sachmo71 · December 3, 2001, 17:58

Tell Cate I got her milk bath right here!

*grabs crotch*

I feel so dirty...

Aewulf · December 3, 2001, 22:09

They should have taken a representation from her from early in her reign (1762-1767). Although Catherine was never stunning, she did make a fine impression to contemporaries of the time.

MrWhereItsAt · December 3, 2001, 22:15

D'ya think it's too late to get Firaxis to include with the patch a new animation for mlle Jean - one where she winks and giggles girlishly when you, um, assent to her demands?
