It`s interesting to note that Capture The Princess is now simply Capture The Flag


Well maybe there could be some options:
"Capture:
the flag
Sid Meier
the easter egg
..."



Edit: Capture the BANANA, BANANA!!

I dont care wat it is named as long as they allow option to change sprite of unit into princess or a flag.

Lets see how many games are based on saving the princess who was captured by evil warlord only to be missing again in the next sequel?

on top of my head

Ghouls n' ghost
Mario Bro
Onimusha

Feel free to add to list

It should be easy to change the sprite. People have been altering the exisiting unit graphics since the game came out.

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

capture sid meir and if u play him in a city, you can force him to overwork creating ideas for a new improved games that will increase happiness throughout the empire like a luxury... lose him to another civ, and your people will cause riot until they get their next patch of civ XXXIV at their doorstep!

but then again if you have him, productivity will plunge, forcing most of your citizen to be mindlessly addicted to his games and will be playing at work any chance they get... (alt-tab anyone? lol)

No, in this mode you get points by getting the "flag" and bringing it back to your civilization. Regicide is just a loss condition where if your king dies, you lose.

Capture the princess is not politically correct.

Also, all fairy tales will be re-written to avoid the sexist characteristics they have today. This means that everybody will have to turn in their fairy tale books for editing. An announcement will be made very soon.

Thank you.

capture the commies
There are 4 great leaders
Lenin=Stalin=Mao=Marx
If you get them all, you win
If you kill one, you lose, and they are regenerated

If you have 1 leader (or 2, or 3)
they have effects
Lenin-increased chance of revolution/civil war
stalin-Military may die off randomly
Mao-Farms are less productive
Marx-More.....corruption? i dunno. Wait, workers cost 1 food a piece

How about something more along the lines of our time, instead of fairy tale land?

Like capture the Terrorist? (a good few scenarios come to mind)
Or capture the Drug Baron?
Or capture the Runaway President's Daughter?
Capture the Anarchist Hippie Anti-globalisation Rioting Malcontent?
Capture the Kidnapped Genius Scientist With Plans For The Doomsday Weapon?
Capture the Crashed UFO Alien Harboured By Government Controling Secret Conspiracy Organisation?

Don't worry Admiral, men just have a dirty imagination. Plus, the older you get the more jokes you will make about sex. I suppose it is a kind of a substitute instead of the real thing

PS We should find an artist/modder (an old one, with sick, dirty imagination; just like ours ), to make us a Princess dressed in a tiny flag for our online games

PPS Just kidding

I thought capture the commies was good.
Well, no i didnt, i was half asleep when i wrote it, but still
This from the King of the Soviet Union. Oh well, im not politically correct
I called this kid at my school a fascist (long story)
Then he told me he was german
Of course, it turns out he was french (thought he had the wrong accent)
