Please vote for your top 3 choices.

Currently the Following civs have been mentioned:

Greece- Scientific, Commercial. Hoplite (1.3.1 20 shields, replaces spearman)
Persia-Industrious, Scientific. Immortal (4.2.1 30 shields, requires iron, replaces swordsmen)
Ottomons- Scientific Industrious. Sipahi (8.3.2 100 shields, requires horses, saltpeter, replaces cavalry)
Celts- aggricultural, religous. Galic Swordsman (3.2.2 40 shields, requires iron, replaces swordsman)
Dutch-seafaring, agricultural. Swiss Mercenary (1.4.1 30 shields, requires iron)
Carthage-seafaring, industrious. Numedian Mercenar (2.3.1 30 shields, replaces spearman)
Maya- agricultural, industrious. Javelin Thrower (2.2.1 30 shields, enslave, replaces archer)

With the exception of Carthage, every civ is either scientific or aggricultural.

Well I would like the Byzatines, but Greece is really good too, as are the Dutch.

I urge everyone, Carthage is the way to go. Yes the UU is slightly expensive, but Industrious and Seafaring should be very useful on continents. Fast workers, and we can meet the other continent faster than the other civs.

Also, Spain is a good choice. Quick gov changes, and a very fast UU will mean that we can hit non-border towns with in one turn, after being outside.

I voted for Carthage as one of the choices ... however if the map ends up being Pangea or little ocean squares ... I think it would be a waste of a civ stat

btw - good idea about having a poll

 

[ybbor]

guys, I just realized, what I said about the maya was wrong. This map is going to be custom designed, they're probably goingto see no one gets their own island, and we'll share a continent with someone else.

 

[classical_hero]

I voted in this order.
Persia
Ottomans
Celts

Remember that Sipahi also need saltpeter.

 

[Meleager]

I voted the same way clasical hero... great minds think alike

 

[Spud Boy]

I voted for: Greece, Ottomons, Carthage

 

[GenMarshall]

I voted for the Persians, Ottomans, and the Celts.

Stupid voting finger, Disregard my vote for the Carthage "Do'h!". Could a mod please remove that vote for me please? Thanks.

 

[classical_hero]

It seems our top five so far are Persia, Ottomans, Celts, Greece and Carthage.

It seems our top five so far are Persia, Ottomans, Celts, Greece and Carthage.

not carthage, that was a mistaken vote on CG's part

 

[classical_hero]

Carthage is still the fifth highest civ.

 

[fe3333au]

Persia,
Celt,
Carthage (depend on how much water around)

 

[squirrelz rulez]

Greece, Carthage, Rome. All have good early defensive UU's.

 

[Black_Hole]

Well this poll never closes.... Should we poll between Ottomans and Greece for #1 civ?

 

[classical_hero]

No. All we need to do is give a list of the top five civs to the Admins.

 

[Black_Hole]

No. All we need to do is give a list of the top five civs to the Admins.

but it has to be ordered, so which goes first, greece or ottomans?

 

[Black_Hole]

So:
1. Greece - Ottomans
3. Carthage
4. Celts - Persia

We need 2 polls, Greece vs Ottomans, and Celts vs Persia

 

[Kentharu]

we do need two polls like Black_Hole said

 

[ybbor]

So:
1. Greece - Ottomans
3. Carthage
4. Celts - Persia

We need 2 polls, Greece vs Ottomans, and Celts vs Persia

nope, someone voted so it's:

1)Greece
2)Ottomons
3) Persia

(Carthage is inflated by one because of a mistake CG made)
