• Civ7 is already available! Happy playing :).

[LP] Civilization VI: Leader Pass - Discussion Thread

Also, it's really weird not hearing Sarah's voice(I think that's who narrated the reveals) anymore. That's gonna be missed. :( Even if she didn't pronounce everything correctly, it was still la joy to hear her voice to confirm that yes, new content's here.
 
Not a single in-game screenshot? :(

Anyway, have to admit Nader Shah might get me playing again. Never thought we'd ever see a post-Achaemenid leader of Persia. Would have preferred a Sassanid myself, but I'll take it. Also unironically pleased that we're presumably getting Cleopatra in Greek clothes. If you're going to choose a Ptolemy for Egypt, live with your choice. :p Have to ask, though, did we really need a persona pack for Victoria? :huh:
A single screenshot!
 
Really glad I bought of all of Civ6 on Steam recently now that I own an actual gaming PC.

Really interesting stuff here. I'm most excited about Suleiman since the Ottomans are one of my favorite civs and I'm generally interested in all of the new Personas. Can't say I'm super excited about an entire set devoted to just England but I like the thematic division they've set up.
 
Really like the roster. Looks like the leak was close but not perfect. Which I like since a) it kept some surprises for us and b) I found it really odd to have no Arabian alt in it. Glad we're at least getting a reskin. Although now I'm a bit disappointed by Rome not getting a single alt leader when both China and England will end up with 5 leaders/personas.
England?
They have Eleanor, Victoria, the LP adds two more, who am I missing?

Ugh, not more personas. Such a lazy way of doing new content and I really don't care for them. Last time all it did was split existing content up (allocating rough riders to only 1 persona)! And I won't even be able to disable them this time as they'll come packaged with the other leaders, great...

Now that we have confirmation of the packs and who's in them, let's do some speculating.

Specifically, what the abilities will be now that we have themes established for them. Some will be obvious, but others less so. For Saladin Alt, Ana Nzinga, and Abe Lincoln, we have the theme of Great Negotiators. So they'll probably have Abilities related to Diplomacy. I'll start.

With Ana Nzinga, we have the possibility of better Military through Alliances, since she used the Dutch against the Portuguese in an erstwhile alliance of "My enemy's enemy is my friend."
 
Seems to me there's a possibility of a little more information on the steam page... At least for us CivFanatics ;-)
