Well ,since so much people demanded a revote with the popular option's for the nation we should play ,here is the new poll!

But if this poll turn's out so that the nation that win's is exactly the same as the winner in the previous poll, then head's will roll.

So you say you like the Great Library? Unstoppable foot troops? A golden age timed to give a perfect launch to a policy of Manifest Destiny? There's only one choice folks:

PERSIA!

My Fav Civ! Hate having to research Bronze Working now, and industrius is handy through out the game PLUS it gives early acsess to Pyrimids

People, if you want a Immortal Empire vote Persia!

I just love rolling over the persians with my nice, big, fast,
:tank:

Seriously though, I've always found civs with UUs that come later to be more effective. With Germany you need to build both
Sun Tzu's and Leonardo's.
Both are in my opinion the best wonders. So if we aim for them anyways, then we get our Golden Age in the middle ages after we've expanded and have over 30 cites. Free techs in every era is nice too.

You get Free Techs with Persians too (and Babs but we don't care about them non-industrialists ) And Immortals come in nice and handy if we meet a Shaka early on....

For those people who don't know the civs traits by heart:

Babylonians - Bowman (2/2/1) - Scientific & Religious

Germans - Panzer Tank (16/8/3) - Militaristic & Scientific

Persians - Immortal (4/2/1) - Scientific & Industrious

Romans - Legion (3/3/1) - Militaristic & Commercial

I'm going to choose either Persia or Babylon. I would love to play with the religious ability, but I haven't made my mind up yet.

Edit: Sorry for the Immortal thing.

Thanks for posting the abilities. For some reason I thought that the Persians were militaristic.

I see that the common thread between the four is Militaristic and Scientific. Gee, if only we could combine the two....

Obviously the Persian unique unit is the Immortal (4/2/1)

And has everyone found problems with the instruction books and Prima Startergy guides?
In the instruction book it says the Romans are Industrious + Milataristic while in the Prima guide it says the Germans are expansionist and commercial....... obviously a few last minute changes were made......

the strategy guides were written a long time before the game was released, so changes were made after it had been published.

persians 1st with 9 votes, germans only one vote behind...

It's all wrong man!
We shouldn't even be here!

Yeah, there's tons of errors in the manual and the guide thing.

Should there be one last poll between the top two?
All four are fairly close.

After reading the ending to the other thread and poll and since we are starting on Monday this should be it.
So whatever happens happens and we'll just have to live with whatever. There's four choices most of the time in US politics and even more in most other countries. Everyone has to live with what happens. (Bush in the US, Cretien in Canada)
