Civ 5 Confirmed Features

[bite]

I've updated it with some new info from Pax East

 

[Bulgarian]

Why don't they include Bulgarians? I CANT believe they do not include our civ!
If people knew a little about the history of Europe , they would be aware that:

We are one of the oldest still existing states in Europe /680-2010...!/ And also:
1/ There was a time when we were a bit stronger than Byzantium /IX century was one of the periods , i.e. during Simeon the Great 's rule /
2/ The Cyrilic alphabet used by us, Russians, Belarussians , etc......................was created in Bulgaria during tzar Boris I by St. Cyril and Methodius
3/ We "had an interesting interaction" with the Ottoman Empire which conquered us and ruled Bulgaria for 5 centuries
4/ Bulgaria does not have a military flag captured and kept by enemy hands
5/ Many cases of winning the battles BUT losing the war on the diplomacy table.......

All these (and many others) are reasons enough to include Bulgaria as a civ to select.
*If you ask about a Special unit: advanced version of the knight unit - we did have a good cavalry back in the medieval times
A more complex version of WHY BULGARIANS?? in this topic http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=9058712&posted=1#post9058712

Here we go again...

Here's an interesting new big of information:

Finally, our presenters displayed how the defense of cities will be handled. Gone is the old way of stacking units into cities that would fight off invading forces. Instead, cities will now have health points that must be completely depleted before being taken over. Players will still be able to put units into the cities, but this will now absorb the units into the city and boost its hit points instead of allow the unit to battle invaders.

I've updated it with some new info from Pax East

In the "design" section there is no update about LUA used as script language.
It's a valuable info for modders imo.

We've already had a ton of these "Why isn't my country in Civ?" discussions. They tend to generate more heat than light.

 

[Pokurcz]

Why isn't BAbylon on the list?!! I always used to play as Babylon in civ2...

 

[Bulgarian]

I agree,,,,,,Babylon is amazing

 

[Ready_set_go]

I think Israel should be a civ.
Just because Bulgarian thinks Bulgaria should be a civ.

The only place I can see it referenced is in the comments section from someone who said they herd it at Pax East, I'll wait till a game publication confirms it before adding it.
