    Quill18's R&F Let's Play (preview build)

    Doesn't seem to have been posted already, and since part one was uploaded only 5 hours ago, here's a link: S.

    Dec 26th teaser

    I googled Chanakya and the first pic that shows up on the results-page (from a movie/TV-show I guess?) makes him look like Jayavarman's long lost twin.. :D S.

    Give me 5 reasons you are playing Civ5 and not Civ4.

    I still like both games. However: 1UPT - most of the time, anyway Graphics and audio are nicer - but no Spock .. :( Religious game is more fun in V - IV's religions are a bit too generic for my taste new features like natural wonders and ranged combat OTOH, V usually lacks truly...

    [R&F] Based on the new features - which civilizations and leaders should be introduced in R&F?

    I don't see why they shouldn't be able to adapt the "Merchant of Venice"-mechanic for Civ VI. Either that or a different unique ability to take over city-states as you could in V. E.

    [R&F] Based on the new features - which civilizations and leaders should be introduced in R&F?

    Ottomans would be nice, I just hope they'd get more interesting traits/units than in V. Speaking of large, multi-ethnic empires: What about Austria-Hungary? Inca or Maya should pretty much be a given, considering how few American Civs are in the game. In fact, I would argue for both of them to...

    [R&F] Based on the new features - which civilizations and leaders should be introduced in R&F?

    I seriously doubt they'd "give away" all new leaders in the teaser-video - that would kinda defeat the purpose of them stretching out the introduction of new leaders/features. Besides: The Statue of Liberty and the Berlin Wall feature pretty prominently in the video... so shouldn't we be...

    I'm gonna call it: No more new Civs from Asia for R&F

    I agree. Nothing against the great nation of Canuck-istan, but - just like Australia - it seems more fitting as a DLC-Civ.

    I'm gonna call it: No more new Civs from Asia for R&F

    So? With languages/cultures this old, compromise is pretty much unavoidable in some cases. Heck, we can't even be sure the Latin spoken by Augustus or Trajan in V and VI is how a citizen of ancient Rome would've sounded like. If you can't properly represent a dead language in its spoken form...

    I'm gonna call it: No more new Civs from Asia for R&F

    Please don't let it be for the obvious Civ ... *cough* Rome ... Quite frankly, seeing how biased towards Europe and Asia the current lineup is, I could really do without any more Civs from either region. Well... except for the Celts perhaps, whom I adored in V. As for the alternative leader...

    I'm gonna call it: No more new Civs from Asia for R&F

    Edited title. Please no "click-bait" titles Unless I've overlooked someone, overall we have: Japan Indonesia Korea China The Mongols Khmer The Scythians India and I suppose you could also count Australia and large chunks of Russia? While I'm at it: Europe: 10 Civs, 11 leaders - 11/12 if...

    [R&F] Mongolia First Look

    Interesting ... that's pretty much how we pronounce his name/title in German (it's spelled "Dschingis" over here). Question is: How much difference is there between modern Mongolian and whatever the people in Genghis' time spoke? S.

    [R&F] Mongolia First Look

    In keeping with the spirit of one of my earlier posts re. the upcoming R&F-leaders: Ohhhh, yes! I just hope he'll be as unhinged as his "I'm going to kick your ass"-animation from the first look video seems to suggest. Haven't read the entire thread, so sorry if I'm kinda beating a dead...
