Trajan seems to love to turn 1 declare on me for whaterver reason, even if he's on another continent across the map :lol:

IIRC, il Sogno di Volare was played in London sometime this year, so it's probably ready to go. They're probably just saving it for the full release so the players have a nice (but long awaited) surprise when they first boot up the game.

Black and blue I'm sure you mean :mischief: Also wondering if there's more to the UA - there could be some unmentioned stuff like in Sumeria's reveal

Dang it, the last three revealed civs used bonuses I was thinking of using for a potential mod civ! >: ( Still loving these reveals though

Man, the music playing in the livestream is bloody fantastic. Was it Japan's theme that was playing not too long ago right after America's theme?

Mrm, I think there are ways to avoid overlap with Scythia: If designing a Mongol Civ under Kublai Khan, you can easily make it about monopolizing trade or the spread of great people/acquisition of them through conquest, whilst still hearkening back to their steppe nomadic roots. Even if you were...

@Atlas627: Reading back everything, sorry if I've come across as an annoying little brat or anything. Haven't had the best few weeks and I think I'm developing a sleeping disorder of sorts; I've been struggling to catch barely 2 to 3 hours of sleep per day for over the last week and a bit - so...

Australia was considered before, alongside Canada and Brazil but they went with Brazil instead. It's possible they might take a look at Australia again for a potential civ in the roster this time around. If anything though, I'd like to see some Australian Great People in-game: Maybe some...

Your point is that no one is incentivised to be an island settler and I pointed out that Japan's bonuses already allow for and naturally incentivised such a thing without having to outright reference or encourage it. Well you did kinda say they needed to previously :p Which is why I brang up...

Of course there's room for both but one is not absolutely critical to the other. Not everything must be spelt out for someone to say 'this is a good idea' to follow up on in-game. With Japan, if your cities benefit from being tightly packed, then of course smaller continents and islands become...

I haven't been wandering too far from c&c, though I've taken some peeks into there every now and then :D

I recall someone posting a quote from a dev that roughly stated they're taking a similar approach to civ v but they're going to make the code much easier to access and manipulate, less restrictions and such - though I'm heavily paraphrasing there and I haven't slept properly in 4 days so there's...

Japan district bonus says hello :p Except if they were to be represented in their own right - but even, they can can still individually reference maritime themes with a naval unit / building, bonuses from certain coastal resources, or coastal improvements / bonuses - it doesn't need to be as...

The whole point is that not all of them need to represent island colonisation - And Tonga would actually be a valid candidate for the ocean fairer (It doesn't need to be island settlement) with it being part of an archipelago itself and as a maritime empire with influence reaching various...

Mrm, not exactly - I still disagree with the point below which I replied to in the first part of my previous reply. Tpang actually addressed this very point on post 16 of the first page of the thread.
