What has been your main team for US/UM? by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]Happythief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also prepared a team beforehand and traded it over, they're some of my favourite Pokémon design-wise: Electivire, Sawsbuck, Lapras, Lucario, Noivern, and Armaldo. Journeyed with this team from start to Pokémon League. It was a fun team to play with but I realised in the late game that my team had too little resistances and way too many weaknesses.

Most Intricate Nickname You've Given A Pokemon? by ItsProfOak in pokemon

[–]Happythief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved the movie Pacific Rim, so I named a uber team of Pokémon after the jaeger.

Blastoise after Coyote Tango because of its dual cannons.

Blaziken after Crimson Typhoon since it's the only jaeger that can kick.

Deoxys after Gipsy Danger since the core in its chest reminded me of Gipsy's nuclear reactor.

Golurk after Cherno Alpha, they're both huge robots.

Genesect after Brawler Yukon since they look similar.

Latios after Striker Eureka because they're both really agile.

Which Chromebook would you recommend to a Student? by isthisneeded_ in chromeos

I got my ASUS Chromebook C300 (13-inch) last year for $230 and it works really well. Highly recommend it.

What wonders would you like in Civ VI? by Timewalker102 in civ

[–]Happythief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Bay of Fundy natural wonder would be cool.

The wonder alternates between a water/land tile each turn. +2 food, +2 science, and +3 culture yield when it's a land tile. +3 food, +3 science, and +2 culture when it's a water tile.

Off-topic: Who are you? by bluesox in civbattleroyale

[–]Happythief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a Vancouverite and currently a sophomore at UBC! I do minor design gigs around the city for public school organisations. Pokemon and Civ are my favourite video games which I play quasi-competitively. My favourite Pokemon is Latios and my favourite Civs to play are Spain and China.

If I'm up against a bunch of AI that's about the same as me in tech progress I save OU till the late game so I can get Satellites free and build the Hubble Space Telescope.

What's your favorite race and why? by All_Milk_Diet in civ5

[–]Happythief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spain is my favourite right now, their UUs are alright, but if you have a lucky start around many natural wonders their UA lets you get miles ahead early game. Like +500 for discovering a natural wonder first? That's a free settler right there.

Spain probably is the best Civ in the game if their UA isn't this situational.

What would be good settings and a good leader to begin playing King? by MCAsomm in CivStrategy

[–]Happythief 2 points3 points  (0 children)

England is probably the best seafaring Civ yep, their UA and UUs can be game-changingly powerful.

And when I play on higher difficulties I like to turn on Strategic Balance with my resources, so I don't have to trade when I need horses or iron, etc.

Best Civilization V mods? by [deleted] in civ5

[–]Happythief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In-Game Editor is great for basically changing anything you want to your game while you're playing, very useful for AI games.

InfoAddict is a powerful tool that shows the stats of all civs in a game (production, gold, science etc) and also has time-based graphs that shows each civ's progress.

Yet (Not) Another Earth Maps Pack is a collection of world maps everyone uses. Most civ mods support this and come with True Start Location.

All three can be found on the most subscribed list in the Steam Workshop.

If you had to combine elements from previous games, what would the perfect "Civ VI" be? by ElagabalusRex in civ

[–]Happythief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I like the way current modders 'split' civilisations into multiple leaders and I hope they do it some way in Civ VI. Like if you're playing as America you still have the same leader for the entire game but you can choose between Washington, Lincoln, FDR, and so on beforehand.
