I'm not saying Arabs are the same thing as Ottomans. I'm just saying that they are all part of the Islamic Empire. Which is already in the game. That's all. Having Ottomans and Arabs is like having Sparta and Athens. Why put both in when they are both Greek. I know they were quite different...

I don't understand what is weird about that? The Islamic Caliphates had 4 dynasties. They were: 1. Umayyad 2. Abbasid 3. Fatimid 4. Ottoman Having an Arabic Civilization and an Ottoman Civilization doesn't make sense because they are essentially the same civilization just different...

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Hitler was equal to Bismarck or Cyrus. I'm just saying he was a very powerful and influential leader for Germany and during his reign that nation gained significant power and dominated all of Europe. It took the entire developed world to bring him down. You...

I see what you're saying. And I might even agree with you provided that each tank type provides a very different function. If you had a light tank that was fast and great for scouting, and a heavy tank that is slow but destructive. Or a defensive tank vs. an offensive one. Maybe one tank has a...

I like your list although you left out Persia. Also, the Portuguese had a much larger empire than the Dutch. Not that size is everything, but you have to consider them if you are willing to include the Dutch. And what's wrong with including a few barbarian tribes? They game needs some of...

Um... I know size isn't everything (at least that's what my GF tells me) but Spain is the 4th largest empire ever. The Ottoman Empire is 24th. That's a huge gap. However, I believe the Ottoman empire was more powerful in economic terms. But it's kinda hard to make up for the difference in...

If it wasn't for the infrastructure that was built up during Hitler's rule, Germany wouldn't have recovered so quickly. West Germany rebounded very quickly after the war. Yes, they were occupied, but they still managed to form a new government and get their economy back on track.

No Spain? Surely Spain trumps Ottoman and Ethiopia. Don't get me wrong those were great Civs, but... Spain! Take out Vatican and make Ottoman a City-State. I'm not even remotely Spanish, but still... Spain!

Yes but if I already have 10 Panzer tanks at 20 dmg. Then I upgrade their strength through promotions they will be at 22-23 dmg. So, by the time I am able to build Tiger Tanks, my Panzers will be just as good. Also, the way you use tanks remains the same whether you have 20 or 23 dmg. And once...

YES! Exactly.

Agreed. So basically he should be in the game, but he's not because some people might be upset if he was. Hitler also made Germany a world superpower. They were in dire straits after WW1. Hitler took a devastated nation and made them powerful enough to conquer most of Europe. Also, when last...

Yes, Gandhi was a spiritual guru. But he was also more. He was an influential LEADER for his people. LEADER is the key word. Leaders can come in many forms. Not all are kings and generals. I agree he would fit into the Great Prophet category as well, but there were many great prophets who were...

I agree there is a potential for it to be overpowered. It would have to be finely tuned, no doubt. The Hero units don't necessarily have to be invincible. You could still make a lot of them and they would have to have some weaknesses to exploit, but at the same time, they should fulfill a...

Spain absolutely must be in the game. They are too influential to not be. How about Carthage for an African Civ? Also, Egypt is an African Civ, so Africa is already represented at least once. The Ottoman Empire is an excellent idea, though they are quite similar to Arabia which seems to be a...

It seems that many people want to see more tanks, ships and planes. I think adding more of those type of units would be almost redundant. You can already customize your units by gaining experience and upgrading them to fit your strategy. If they added another tier of the same units it would make...
