Oda Nobunaga ends ninth!

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 38
Bismarck (German) - 34
Boudicca (Welsh) - 28
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 38
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 38
Maria I (Portuguese) - 34+1=35 - She wasn't a good leader choice, but her voice is simply great.
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 38
Shaka (isiZulu esijulile) - 29-3=26 - Suffers from same problem as Nobunaga - his hate state voice isn't hateful enough. But it's still pretty good voice for this fearsome warlord.

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 38
Bismarck (German) - 34
Boudicca (Welsh) - (28+1)=29 Fierce Iceni Queen with a suitable voice.

Maria I (Portuguese) - 35
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 38
Shaka (isiZulu esijulile) - (26-3)=23 Not as angry in his hate lines as I would like. Maybe the VA thought the real Shaka was a calm guy?

 

[Kimiimaro]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 38+1=39 - Strong, respectful and deep voice. Also, I love his hate state voice.
Bismarck (German) - 34

Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 38
Maria I (Portuguese) - 35
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 38
Shaka (isiZulu esijulile) - 23-3=20 - I would expect this fearsome warlord to have more hateful hate state voice.

Maria I (Portuguese) - 35
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 38
Shaka (isiZulu esijulile) -(20-3)=17 He needs to sound scarier when declaring war. He's got the arrogance down right, but needs more intimidation.

 

[Kimiimaro]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 39
Bismarck (German) - 34
Boudicca (Welsh) - 29
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 38

Maria I (Portuguese) - 35
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 38
Shaka (isiZulu esijulile) - (14-3)=11 He needs to sound more intimidating when attacked or declaring war.

 

[Xandinho]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 39
Bismarck (German) - 34
Boudicca (Welsh) - 30 - 3 = 27 Nice, but it does not seem to be any better than the other options on the list.
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 38 + 1 = 39 His voice seems to me to be consistent with him
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - 35
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 38

Boudicca (Welsh) - 27

Shaka (isiZulu esijulile) - 11-3=8 - Should have better hate state voice.

[Kimiimaro]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 39
Bismarck (German) - 34
Boudicca (Welsh) - 27
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 39
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - 36
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 39+1=40 - His voice is voice of old, tired, and yet great leader.
Shaka (isiZulu esijulile) - 5-3=2 - Let's finish him.

 

[Guandao]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - (39+1)=40 His angry voice is legitimately scary and intimidating.
Bismarck (German) - 34
Boudicca (Welsh) - 27
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 39
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - 36
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 40
Shaka (isiZulu esijulile) - 2-3=0 ELIMINATED! Aiveeveh can't save him.

I'm guessing Boudicca is going next.

 

[Kimiimaro]

Well, I'm not decided who should I downvote now, so I don't know... Maybe Boudicca will win

However, Shaka ends eighth!

 

[Xandinho]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 40
Bismarck (German) - 34
Boudicca (Welsh) - 27 - 3 = 24 I still do not think it's as consistent
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 39 + 1 = 40 Maybe he has the best vocal expression of civ5
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - 36
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 40

 

[Kimiimaro]

So far we have 5 BNW leaders, one G&K leader and one vanilla leader. Note that all BNW leaders are in top 20.

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 40
Bismarck (German) - 34+1=35 - This man's voice is strong, rigid and disciplined. Because he was a nobleman, politician and, well... Prussian/German, it fits him very well. His hate state voice is good, too. "Verderbter Bösewicht! Wir werden Euch unter die Erde bringen!"
Boudicca (Welsh) - 24
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 40-3=37 - I haven't decided who to downvote yet. I really like Enrico's voice - but he can take a hit.
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - 36
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 40

 

[Guandao]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 40
Bismarck (German) - 35
Boudicca (Welsh) - (24-3)=21 I don't like her voice as much as the others (except maybe for Bismarck ). And it's the least accurate due to being modern Welsh, as opposed to something older. Not sure how much of Proto-Brittonic is known or reconstructed.
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 37
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - (36+1)=37 Her voice conveys mental instability, and arrogance well.
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 40

 

[Kimiimaro]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 40+1=41 - "HATTA SADATA!"
Bismarck (German) - 35
Boudicca (Welsh) - 21-3=18 - Her Welsh is among the most discused language choices, so...
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 37
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - 37
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 40

 

[Guandao]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 41
Bismarck (German) - (35-3)=32 I don't find his voice exciting compared with some of the others. It fits him, but I'm no German language expert. It might be I find Bismarck dull for some reason. Him being a late 19th century leader doesn't help.
Boudicca (Welsh) -18
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - (37+1)=38 His voice is perfect for the scheming Doge. I've read comments saying the Venetian he uses is more modern (with more Italian influence/loanwords), but it doesn't bother me too much.
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - 37
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 40

 

[Kimiimaro]

Ashurbanipal (Akkadian) - 41
Bismarck (German) - 32
Boudicca (Welsh) -18-3=15 - Hel Welsh is still the most discussed language choice remaining, so...
Enrico Dandolo (Venetian) - 38+1=39 - Fits the old, scheming and greedy man.
Gajah Mada (Old Javanese) - 40
Maria I (Portuguese) - 37
Pedro II (Brazilian Portuguese) - 40
