Which Civ Do You Wish Was in Civ Rev?
Persia - I would have placed them in over Africa. Maybe Firaxis thought that kids would think African tribes are cooler than Persians?
Babylon - Age of Empires players know them too well, but most other kids would have seldom heard of them.
Sumeria - Same as above.
Assyria - Same as above.
Byzantines, Turks, Celts, Vikings, Mayans - Age of Empires II players would know who they were, but I guess Firaxis didn't have that in mind.
Netherlands, Portugal, Inca - Age of Empires III players (like one of my best friends) would love playing as them.
Korea - Quite a few of my friends are of Korean descent.
That's just some that I voted for.
There are some peculiar omissions, true. But I don't really understand why we are playing with real historical civs on randomly generated maps anyway... surely in these days of bountiful processing power and procedural content generation, it is not too much to ask for the game to invent new civs, based around various cultural templates.
Maya - They're much more civilized then the Aztecs!
