Indonesia: Another up vote for Indonesia. It's a great sounding song.

Austria: Do tell, Maria Theresa, is this a war theme, or a secondary peace theme?

Iroquois: Quite boring. sounds sort of creepy, like a prelude to something terrifying, but that something never comes.

Arabia: A song with beginning, middle and end. It sounds fantastic, and I don't think I had voted for it yet.
 
I really would like to participate, but I couldn't bring myself to downvote any theme because they all convey some sort of emotion... :( I enjoy them all. I might throw in my two cents later, but I would first have to think really hard on what theme to regretfully downvote.
 
Glad Arabia recovered!

Iroqouis: You guys want them to be next?

The thing that goes through every Civ player's head when Shaka declares war on them, even before Civ 5.

Once again, I do feel like the Aztecs should've had a stronger theme.

Meanwhile, Russia's war theme is pure intimidation. Good stuff.

THREAD ACTION:

Due to the fact that Aslo did not have his votes based on the war themes, his votes do not count.

Aslo, this is a war theme thread for Civilization 5. Try again, and please stay within the criteria. Check the first post for more details.

Brazil: A war is declared, and the people ready their arms to fight. There is moment of silence before the troops from the two factions will eventually catch sight of each other. But the opposing faction's troops suddenly hear something is off. They feel a rhythm in the air and they can feel the ground rumbling in the same tact.

And from the faraway hill, the opposing faction can spot a line of Brazilian Pracinhas dancing in perfect formation. Their dance is so catchy and bouncy their helmets are bobbing up and down for each dancing step. The opposing army stands confused, but take the best possible action and hunker down to defend the incoming attack.

But suddenly, some of the frontline troops subconsciously starts to bounce ever so slightly to the rhythm of the devious music. It turns out to be very contagious and more of the opposing troops join in. They try to stop it, but they can't! The Great General orders his troops to stop dancing or else he will have them shot for treason. But before he knows it, he finds himself dancing to the music himself!

The opposing army has now become one with Brazil's, and they are now spreading the message of Brazil's fantastic culture across the borders and their own cities.

The scene switches to various other leaders (Maria Theresa, Montezuma, Alexander, Gustavus Adolphus, etc etc) all dancing in unison to the music, with a fading image of a very pleased Pedro II tapping his finger tips against each other, smiling widely with his magnificent beard.

The looming image of Pedro II snickers, his head bobbing for every snicker. Everything went according to plan.

Rome I... I've got nothing. This is a problem. I needed to downvote something, so I picked Rome because of how many times he has backstabbed me. THe theme sound rather droll and seems to drag on. Sorry :(
 
No problem, Doctor. I don't really like the Roman War Theme either. It's now either Rome or India that's next to go out.
 
If I could thank that post, I would, that's a fantastic review of Pedro's theme :D

The first time I heard the Ottoman war theme, he backstabbed me during a DOF. While I was trying to figure out just how would I repeal this attack, the music entranced me, and I had to hear it till the end.

I think my dislike for the Aztec War theme is obvious by now.
