Thanks for that, guys. Phillipwyllie, I guess I captured one of his own GP's; what became of mine I'll never know -- must've been roaming the wilderness when I wiped out Egypt, then evaporated. Maybe someday I'll try to let a GP get captured in the same way just to positively verify that AI...

I always name my religion after myself and it never fails to tickle me when a city state demands my faith by name. Good bit of game personalisation. The thing that's missing that would be so easy is a selection of custom icons. You'd only need about a dozen of the usual suspects: 8-ball, bomb...

I've captured Great Prophets before and discovered that they retain their (foreign) religion. However, I'd never lost one until last night when despicable barbarians came out of the shadows and took my Buddhist GP. I destroyed the offending barb, but before I could reclaim the GP the...

Respectfully, I really think you sell the Sioux short. They're as deserving as any NA group, and certainly more prominent than most. Whoever said they're nothing more than a quintessential Indian to a Hollywood cowboy really needs to do some more research. If they're not your first pick, no...

I actually agree with your premise! I have watched a fair amount of walk-thru & interview vids, but have avoided to some degree the leader animation sequences and deep details of mechanics. I want there to still be a little novelty left when I purchase the game.

Here's hoping! :goodjob:

Zuni removed. Thank you both.

Posted this on other thread, but also seems appropriate here. Sorry if I left major contenders out. --- As for most likely Native American civs not from the northeast like the Iroquois (assuming achievement list clue is correct)... Ruled OUT by alphabet: Apache Arapaho Blackfoot Cheyenne...

Officially rooting for the Vandals.

Nobody's clinging. You just outright rejected a very plausible scenario by declaring authoritatively that achievements are the last thing to get done, etc. You can't know that. Still. I agree with you! :crazyeye:

Well, I voted Sioux & venice because that's what I expect, but your poll is lacking. Too many other possibilities. Why not include an "Other" option? Or better still, "Other 1" & "Other 2"....

You don't know that. (unless you work there) It could well be that the list is ordered automatically based on an internal civ ID code that was assigned when Pueblo was internally thought to be final. Achievements could be a simple a simple text file that would just be a bloody pain to...

Oh. My! Gawd!! :eek: Don't do that to me, I don't want to be crushed!

I posted about that possibility several times and think it's very plausible. I also suggested that the one thing that won't be a surprise is if there's a big surprise! As for purple, I wouldn't waste too much time sorting through flags. Flags are a relatively modern convention (last several...
