Pocatello is an ugly old man? Have you seen Enrico Dandolo of Venice? :lol: Or are you implying American Indians are hideous by your beauty standards? :mad: The Shoshone are a replacement for the developers first choice for a North American Indian civ, the Puebloans, but they objected to their leader being portrayed in a video game, so they picked another western Indian group, the Shoshone. They also didn't want a militaristic Indian group like the Sioux, since they had Shaka and his Zulus as the "angry natives".

Pocatello is an ugly old man?
Yes.

Have you seen Enrico Dandolo of Venice?
Yes. He perfectly represent a Venice leader. Most of them were old. And Enrico was blind on top of that.

Or are you implying American Indians are hideous by your beauty standards? The Shoshone are a replacement for the developers first choice for a North American Indian civ, the Puebloans, but they objected to their leader being portrayed in a video game, so they picked another western Indian group, the Shoshone.

Nebuchadnezzar's leaderscreen really fits him because in game he always acts as an evil leader destroying civs one by one with superior tech. The leadescreen gives a really menacing look and Nebby's growls complete the picture of pure evil.

Hiawatha's leaderscreen is boring. It doesn't show any signs of Iroquois civilization unlike most of other leaderscreens (Oda, Alex, Gandhi - I'm looking at you). And Hiawatha himself doesnt have a charisma to make a good leaderscreen on his own.

Nebuchadnezzar has such a dark and menacing leaderscreen it makes feel happy and disturbed :). Oh and the music fits the mood.

I find the Pacal rather boring and his city is quite bland. The only good thing about this leaderscreen is his giant feather hat. This music is boring.

I really hope I'm right on this, but is that Hiawatha out? I'll put him last in the final rankings anyway.
Yes, Hiawata is out and Harald has 22 now.
