2K Announces “Extreme Diplomacy” For Civilization V
2K games announced today a revolutionary new addition to the Civilization franchise – Extreme Diplomacy. If regular diplomacy fails, or you just can’t seem to overwhelm opposing forces by traditional means, Extreme Diplomacy allows the player to pit one world leader against another – death match style. Each world leader comes with their own special attacks and finishing moves, several of which are listed below.
• George Washington's Uncle Slam Attack
• Oda Nobunaga's Tsunami Train Attack
• Otto von Bismarck's Hurricane Helmet Spike Attack
• Ramesses II's Phalanx of the Leopard Army
• Montezuma's Revenge of the Aztec Army
• Napoleon's Complex Military Strike
The last leader standing gains the spoils of war – the entire challenger’s empire. Fans of the franchise can even opt to buy the Uber Edition of Civilization V, which will come with an eight-button joystick to cater to classic arcade play.
How about it. Do you like the new direction 2K is taking Meier’s iconic franchise?
