I would love for somebody to create a Ukraine or the Kingdom Of Jerusalem.

Yea, I agree, Kingdom of Jerusalem would be awesome!

Can you create a new civilization :

this civilization called Peenemünde Empire.


Peenemünde Empire :
leaderhead : Franz hans SChultz (1870-1943) and Franz Schlieben (1900-2010)
Special Capacity : fanatism
Special Unities : Maus E120 Panzer Ratte, Tiger, Kingstiger
Sun Never Sets - + 2 Movement for all Naval Units
Strategic resources provide +1 production and Horse, Iron, Uranium provide double quantity
unique building : Lindemann Battery, Secret Base

Overview :
Although various Germanic peoples occupied the northern Central Europe for millennia, the modern political entity known as Germany is very young, having been created by the Pennemünder politician Franz Hans Schultz almost him alone, there are about 70 years. During its brief history, Germany has had a profound impact, with good and bad sides, on world history.

DID YOU KNOW
Peenemünde Empire is so called because it war a research center in Germany in Second World War.

Hungary please!

ruler could be István I or László I (both Kings)

there's a nice number of potential city names, Hungary ruled quite a large area - colours red/green or green/red, the symbol could be the hills+cross from the right hand side of the coat of arms (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Hungary), yeah you'd have to take Budapest out of the city states, but from a similar part of the world could have someone like Zagreb, Sarajevo, Iasi?)

~~~Armenia
One of the Oldest if not the oldest civilizations, that still exists

Should Recieve Substantial Cultural Bonus, and Bronze working at creations especially since the recent discover of Bronze tools in Armenia dating back to 4700 BC!

Would like to see the Norse (i.e. Vikings) centred around Norwegian, Danish, Swedish city names. Unique building could be a Runestone instead of the Monument, perhaps Longship instead of Trireme? The English ability 'sun never sets' would be reasonably appropriate for this civ also.

I wouldn't mind to see the Boers as well, even though they were active only a short (relatively speaking) time, they did make their mark on South Africa. Their leader could be Piet Retief, unique building perhaps something to replace the stable. Unique unit would have to be the Voortrekker, an armed Worker! Racial ability would be something to do with effectiveness against Barbarians - perhaps similar to Germany's ability?

Civ: Romania

Leader: Stephen III or Vlad III(Dracula to the rest of the world ), or Burebista(someone has already made a civ style Burebista: Portrait.

Unique ability: Increase construction speed to cultural buildings.

Unique unit 1: Mountain Hunters in place of the Infantery

Unique unit 2: Wolf Warriors(some freaks with wolf heads on their spears, or heads if they were swords men.. the romans had to deal with those freaks in a lot of wars, even if the romans had 10 times more soldiers , so pretty good unit) in place of Warriors

or

Unique Building: Literature Guild(building)

Hungary

Leader

St. Stephen I - first king of the Hungarian Kingdom
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_I_of_Hungary

Matthias Corvinus - the most known king of Hungary
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthias_Corvinus

Lajos Kossuth - the world famous figure of the Hungarian reform ages and the Hungarian revolution in 1848-49
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lajos_Kossuth

Unique Building: Fortress - could be a stronger castle
(Hungary held up the Ottoman expansion towards Europe due to it's fortress system)

Unique unit 1: Magyar horse archer(like the camel archer)

Unique unit 2: Hussars (like sipahi)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_cavalry

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hussar

Trait:

Savior of mothers - could mean some population or happiness thing.
(Ignac Semmelweis Hungarian physician discovered how to prevent puerperal fever)
(Albert Szent-Gyorgyi Hungarian physiologist discovered Vitamin C)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ign%C3%A1c_Semmelweis

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Szent-Gy%C3%B6rgyi

FRANCE

Ideas:

Leader: Nicolas SARKOZY

Unique ability: "Charter effect". As soon you have discovered the ability to sail on seas, any foreigner or barbarian is immediately fired back to the border (but not killed!) by any soldier in direct contact.

Unique building: LE BORDEL ! (a nice place with a pink gloomy light on the frontage where you pay ladies for sexual services ...). Increases happiness +3 BUT decreases town population -1 because of sexual illnesses ...

Unique unit 1: "Grenadier d'Empire" in place of rifleman = 20% stronger when in plains

Unique unit 2: "Rafale" in place of Airfighter = 10% stronger against other airfighters and 25% stronger on bombings

Another civ I'd like to see is the principality of Antioch. Anyone have plans for a Ukrainian Civ? That would also be amazing.
Also, is there any custom civs right now that feature leaders that appear as themselves in the diplomacy screen? Instead of a leader pre-built into the game? If not, are there any plans for any?

Austrian Empire

Leader: Franz I
Unique: + 1 cultural bonus for uniting different nations, -1 less unhappyness in cities and 10% production - k.k. Beamte ;-)
Unique building: k.k. Hofoper (state - opera) culture and happiness
Unique unit: Kürassiere (replacing lancers) - bonus vs melee-units in open, k.k.Jäger (replacing rifleman)
- bonus in Hills and for defence

The Franks Empire
Leader: Charles the Great (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlemagne)

Unique ability: don't know

Unique building: don't know

Unique Unit: don't know

The Franks empire was one of the most important empires arround 750. So it should be in Civ

The Polynesia Empire

I don't know If it was a big or important empire, but it is a very different civ from the existing, so it's funny *g*

Knights Hospitaller

Leader: Jean Parisot de la Valette (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Parisot_de_la_Valette)

Unique Unit 1: Maltese Knight (better defence)

Unique Unit 2: Maltese Falcon (better Scout)

Unique Building: The maltese Fort (it was the best fortress in the 15th century

Unique ability: +1 cuture bonus with fort oder castle

In 1565 they win a battle with 750 knight an mostly 8000 light worriers agains 40.000 Otomans and 200 ships. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Malta_(1565)

NEW ENGLAND EMPIRE

Based on the New England Colonies before the American Revolution.

Unique Unit: Pilgrim (Replaces settler, cheaper to produce)
Unique Building: Puritan Church (Replaces temple, extras: -1 happiness from luxury resources but technology progress is increased by 10%)

Unique Ability: Pilgrim Education (+20% technology progress after researching education)

^This: I love to have all Civs in one Game from same time frame (and sometimes even same region). This makes the feeling of playing trought kind of alternate history much more intensive.

Just buying the Game,

some civilizations what I'm missing in the game...

defivitely Shaka Zulu and his endless Impi hordes,

Kublai Khan of Mongols UU: Mangudai, UB:yurt

or alternative...

Huns:

Attila the Hun, Feast of Huns, UU: Kutrigur UB: Archery Range

or

Timur Lenk of Timurids, Warriors of Ghazi, UU: Manajaniq, UB: Mausoleum

and

Anasazi Pueblos, leader: Kokopelli, Farmers of the Canyon

UU: Atlatl, UB: Kiva

Please someone add Catalonia!
As a Catalan I would love to play as them and invade Spain
wait.... they're not in the game as-well

Finland

Led by: Urho K. Kekkonen

UT: Sisu: Either Citizens consume half or 2/3 of the food usually consumed, OR All units move through Marsh, Forest & Across Rivers without penalties.
Pseudo-Historical background:


UU: Hakapeliitta: Replaces Cavalry. Cheaper to build, and possible smaller upkeep
Historical background follows:


UU: Finnish Jaeger: Replaces Infantry. Receives combat bonuses in Forests, Marshes, and Tundra.
As for history, Ever heard of the winter war? Yeah.

Celts and Guals as seperate civilizations with celts representing england and gauls france.

Hakkapeliitta merely Swedish troops in 30 years war even though Finnish Cavalry,

if Sweden is civ, then replace to Lancer.

Teutons are also a good idea, or teutonic order...

UU Teutonic Knights,
UB Jousting lines,

and Knights Templar headquaters as a Wonder, can product Templar Knights.

Norway!
Would love to have my own country on Civ 5. Maybe with Harald Hårfagre and Håkon VII as leaders. The first king of Norway, and the first king after the dissolution of the union with Sweden.

Click to expand...

Might I suggest Magnus Lagabøte or Sigurd Jorsalfar instead? They made a much greater impression on the Norwegian society than Haakon VII, at least.

Magnus could give a bonus to either Courthouses or Libraries, while Sigurd could give some sort of bonus to military units far away from home, maybe.
