Adding a fictional civilization to promote a separate game over the abundance of worthy historical civilizations would be a terrible, terrible idea.

when San Marino is confirmed will I get credit for having the first serious faith in its inclusion?

If they did that they'd lose a large amount of respect from me, as well as a nubmer of fanbase.

I doubt its a fictional civ either 
. Just not what Civ is. I am pretty sure the hypercube is supposed to be Venice, considering the German, PCGamer reviews, and now this.
Question is what...
I doubt its glass, not out of the box enough. Perhaps conquest of cities by tourism/trade, instead of actual combat? Units would be only to defend lands/sack great works?

Strictly speaking a hypercube is any n-dimensional analogue of a square where n = 0, 1, 2,...
Clearly this means we must consider whether the civ will occupy an infinitesimal point in civ space. It will be so immeasurably small that other civs can't detect it, allowing it wage war freely and settle infinitely many cities.

Now now don't say that, it is actually a very nice country. One of the few countries in the world where you can see the whole country from their castle up the hill. They even have their own euro's.

...or even a unit from a separate game. Civ V: BNW lost me.

again, most serene quite so applies to San Marino, you need to be more open to its consideration. at this point, can you really say its impossible?

I was refering to XCOM or The Grey Civilization, I hope Firaxis has some common sense before they do that, I can live with XCOM but I seriously dont' want aliens as a civilization

Aah ok, I agree on that. But don't bash San Marino, I visited it years ago and I really liked it thereI was refering to XCOM or The Grey Civilization, I hope Firaxis has some common sense before they do that, I can live with XCOM but I seriously dont' want aliens as a civilization
I mean, you cannot be more bad-ass than going to a convention and your country with a population of about 30,000 people has the same amount of voting right as China... in yo face es!

This isn't ridiculously out there, but maybe it is a Native American civ that has the UA that when it is in a state of war, barbarian encampments begin popping up around its opponent and the barbarians specifically target the other civ?

I'm sorry, what? That's just offensive, I never Bashed San Marino? You are just trying to get me agitated seirously.

I mean Germany can already recruit barbarians, and Ottomans. That isn't that far out there to warrant the description of "hypercube" or "bombshell".
People are assuming its the Native American civ, because they can't get around their attachment to Venice.
Forget Venice, your evidence is crumbling with every passing moment.

Yes, but in this case, you wouldn't be recruiting through waging war against them, it would be an entirely independent force that you don't have to do anything to get other than declare war or have war declared on you. Germans and Ottomans have to attack the barbarians to get a unit and privateers do the same.
he misunderstood your XCOM line about losing respect as toward san marino, i dont think he means that you did bash san marino, he's just saying its a nice place

How is the evidence crumbling every moment? I guess San Marino is a possibility and it certainly would be one of the biggest shocks as a civ ever, but there is very limited proof for it unlike Venice.

San Marino is just not happening. It has had virtually no impact on wider history. The new Euro civ is Venice. Venice may not be the bombshell civ the dev was talking about and the second civ may not be Native American, but the other major contenders have mostly been eliminated. The question is really whether the bombshell is Venice or a Native American civ.
