Conquistador (Spain) - 23 Cossack (Russia) - 22 De Zeven Provinciën (Netherlands) - 23 Digger (Australia) - 14 (17-3) Comes too late for me to care at all. Australia has probably already established their dominance by now. Domrey (Khmer) - 19 Eagle Warrior (Aztec) - 30 Garde Imperiale (France)...

Berserker (Norway) - 8 Conquistador (Spain) - 21 Cossack (Russia) - 22 Crouching Tiger (China) - 5 (8-3) Yuck. Bad in almost every way. They are just no fun, especially since the AI poses no threat to the player militarily after you have the opportunity to build walls... De Zeven Provinciën...

Allies are very helpful in prosecuting wars and defending yourself in the meantime, yes you do know that they will eventually turn on you though. To be fair, it's rational behavior, especially in domination games where the AI sits around like ducks watching their neighbors get devoured.

(This is based on my experience with Total War 2) Once it becomes clear that the player will win the game without some sort of serious intervention, all of the other players in the game (sometimes including your own allies and vassals) will turn on you and declare war to try and prevent you from...

I'm perfectly happy with this model. It's the same as what they used with Civ 5, which itself was basically the existing Civilization series model (premium game plus two expansion packs) with some reasonably priced DLC thrown in. Expansions make this game much better and I'm way happier that...

Maybe civ needs a Realm Divide mechanic. As much as I love to hate it in Total War, it does establish a positive difficulty curve that civ certainly needs. Currently civ 6 has a reverse difficulty curve where if you survive the initial warrior/archer rush from your nearest ally before you have...

Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - 4 Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 13 Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 13 Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 13 Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 12 (11+1) Extremely solid in every stage of the game, I don't know how Firaxis manages...

Chandragupta Maurya - 18 Cyrus the Great - 12 Gitarja - 27 Gorgo - 21 Hojo Tokimune - 14 Jayavarman VII - 13 (12+1) Gotta keep my best boy alive. Lautaro - 5 Peter the Great - 13 (16-3) I feel like they got Peter and Cyrus wrong. Cyrus wasn't too bad but is treated cynically by Firaxis while I...

Sorry guys, I had class today and couldn't correct the vote. Too late to change the - vote to someone else or should I pick another leader to downvote? EDIT, ok instead Peter the Great - 19 (22-3) His face looks weird and screwed up, like if you took his mustache off it would feel wrong. Also...

Catherine de' Medici - 7 Chandragupta Maurya - 23 Cyrus the Great - 21 Genghis Khan - 18 Gitarja - 27 Gorgo - 19 Harald Hardrada - 4 (7-3) Wasn't the real Harald blonde? Kinda takes the fun out of playing a Scandinavian civ... Hojo Tokimune - 29 Jadwiga - 20 Jayavarman VII - 20 (19+1) Such a fun...

New Catherine de' Medici - 11 Chandragupta Maurya - 23 Cyrus the Great - 21 Genghis Khan - 17 Gitarja - 27 Gorgo - 19 (22-3) She wouldn't even be in this game if it weren't to showcase the multiple leaders mechanic. Not very important or interesting in my opinion. Harald Hardrada - 7 Hojo...

Eh I mean that's part of it but being the only female leader of a 5000 year old civilization is an achievement of its own. Plus she had legitimate accomplishments. If you want someone to shake your fist at I would instead recommend looking at Maria of Portugal, who has few defenders.

Amanitore - 8 Catherine de' Medici - 13 Chandragupta Maurya - 21 Cyrus the Great - 18 Genghis Khan - 18 Gitarja - 24 (27-3) Seems like Gajah Mada did all of the heavy lifting anyway, basically the same leader but compared to Civ 5 it seems like more of a compromise, though I do appreciate the...

To step away from the gender-war invective for a bit, I'm not actually sure how sound this idea is. It's one philosophy of many about how Civ games should pick their leaders, and clearly the developers don't consistently prefer one philosophy, since in Civ 5 they pretty much were making a Hall...

Anyone else think Sean Bean kinda botched it? Not nearly as good as Sheppard, and certainly not Nimoy. Lots of mispronunciations and shaky deliveries. For me Attenborough, Hamil, or Wayne June of Darkest Dungeon fame could all be good. I'm not against a female narrator at all, but I'm not...

Hey everyone. I'm a fan of elimination games (there I said it! :crazyeye:) and I thought I'd do one that might be new. Which leaders are your favorite to play? With R&F we've got a lot of leaders to choose from. You know the rules: - Vote once every ~24 hours - Give +1 point to a leader you...

Amanitore - 9 Catherine de' Medici - 12 Chandragupta Maurya - 21 Cyrus the Great - 20 Genghis Khan - 21 Gilgamesh - 5 Gitarja - 25 Gorgo - 22 Harald Hardrada - 15 Hojo Tokimune - 27 Jadwiga - 20 Jayavarman VII - 20 John Curtin - 20 Lautaro - 20 Mvemba a Nzinga - 15 Peter the Great - 24 Philip...
