    [NFP] January Update Video Discussion

    Lady Triệu confirmed? "I'd like to ride storms, kill sharks in the open sea, drive out the aggressors, reconquer the country, undo the ties of serfdom, and never bend my back to be the concubine of whatever man."

    Humankind - Ghana discussion thread

    Wild speculation time, but maybe they did so just because they wanted an early modern Songhai culture with those cities on their list?

    Humankind - Mauryans discussion thread

    The Nabataeans, who built Petra, would be a good choice for a Classical Builder culture in my opinion. But then again East Asia ought to get some representation, so maybe they're better saved for DLC.

    Humankind - Mauryans discussion thread

    We're still lacking both Builder and Agrarian cultures in the Classical Era, so unless they're skipping certain era/trait combinations (which seems unlikely to me, unless I've missed something) we still have to account for both of those. Seeing what trait they've given to the Mayans (guessing...

    This is the first result I get when Googling for "Zhou dynasty palace": So it checks out.

    Do we know yet whether or not the x2 Aesthete, Merchant, Warmonger / x1 Agrarian, Builder, Expansionist, Scientist type distribution will continue with the other ages?

    Almost certainly the Tōdai-ji temple in Nara, Japan. (Which is also the Japanese wonder in Age of Kings.)

    Good catch. To me the camel-adjacent icon looks very much like the "Gye Nyame" Adinkra symbol, so Akan people confirmed? Seems like a bit of an odd choice for both camels and the medieval era, though. If that is indeed the same symbol, maybe someone confused the Ghana Empire (medieval, used a...

    I didn't see anyone mention it (apologies if I just missed it), but the building to the right of the big ziggurat seems to be modeled after the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut near the Valley of the Kings. It could be a wonder or just used as a generic temple model, but I thought I'd make note of it.

    [GS] GS impressions/random observations thread.

    Oh, speaking of, during my first GS game Matthias traded me his Madhyama Vyayoga for my Hamlet, then later on traded me Pratima-nataka for that Madhyama Vyayoga. Then, soon after that, Dido hits me up... to trade Pratima-nataka for Hamlet. ...A bit later still, Dido says hello again and offers...

    [GS] GS impressions/random observations thread.

    Playing my first game as Mali with the other GS leaders as AI. Started out next to a volcano, and it gets named after a volcanic lake in Cambodia. Have there really been no volcanoes at all in their part of the world, ever? Anyway, something that amused me: The Inca (who I had yet to meet...

    Language translations for leader sayings

    It's a bit of an unusual sentence, but I do think they meant "förena" and not "förorena", otherwise it makes even less sense to me. Maybe something along the lines of "I assume you only like art when it blends into the look of the room"? As in, she thinks art should stand out and not blend in...
