	* In the Civilization series, India is always depicted as a peaceful, non-aggressive state... until they get nukes, whereupon they will proceed to nuke everything in sight as fast as they can produce bombs. This is a hallmark of the series dating back to a bug in the original game where Gandi's aggression metric was so low that it could in some cases cause an unhandled integer underflow, turning him into raving Khornate cultist who wants to blow up the world.		* In the Civilization series, India is always depicted as a peaceful, non-aggressive state... until they get nukes, whereupon they will proceed to nuke everything in sight as fast as they can produce bombs.

	* In Empire: Total War India is introduced as a playable theater. You chiefly will be either the Dutch or the Maratha Confederacy. The Marathas themselves are completely broken in that India is a massively profitable theater, and they have virtually no real enemies to deal with. Once the very few enemies that exist have been dealt with, the Marathas can spam ~~absolutely ludicrous numbers~~ of ~~elite infantry and artillery units that will devastate~~ all but the most ~~elite~~ of ~~European units~~.		* In Empire: Total War India is introduced as a playable theater.

The Marathas themselves are completely broken in that India is a massively profitable theater, and they have virtually no real enemies to deal with. Once the very few enemies that exist have been dealt with(Mughals and Mysore), the Marathas can spam armies like Zerg on crack with European equivalent loadouts. But that is not the issue; their instantly hireable "General" units come with a squadron of musket bearing war elephants. That run as fast as horses. [[DISTRACTION CARNIFEX\|That can tank all but the most concentrated canister shot]] and can slam into a line of muskets obliterating the enemy army the moment they breach their lines. Considering impact-triggered percussion caps will be researched early in a unified Bharat, India must never be united lest they'll overwhelm the planet.

	Contributing to this was a policy from the British that they favored recruiting from the groups that sided WITH THEM in the Rebellion of 1857: Sikhs, Gurkahs, Punjabis, etc. Even though those recruiting prejudices are long since abandoned, those regions and groups still have a tendency to favor military service to achieve higher status in a country dominated by a Hindu majority. In this endeavor, these ethnic regiments have garnered a fearsome reputation over the last few centuries, with Sikhs renowned for their iron will and discipline, and Gurkhas for their endurance training and ferocity, with both groups boasting some of the most highly decorated units in both the British and Indian Militaries.
