And what's the problem with necroing threads? Can anyone explain it to me. I asked this question like 3 times.

I wasnt person who bumped this 2009 thread in 2012. But i totally disagree that "necroing" is bad.Necroing threads starts up conversations again on a topic when the original poster is most likely long dead and buried. So the main contributor is not able to respond.
Nothing wrong with that of course! Dig up the graves and let's see what the skeletons have to say for themselves. Always spooky when the original poster chimes in again.
Bring me AlienSexFilth! I want to see the public display game on Monarch
In late games when only conquest/cultural victory is enabled great artists and great merchants are more useful then great sciencistsPhilosophical leader and Slavery - that's the biggest joke in civ 4. What use of these scientist specialists while they all get whipped away?
and his UU might as well not exist.
The starting techs might not be horrible, but they are what prevent Pericles from being ridiculously good at most of the rush gambits. On the surface he looks like the ideal candidate for any early bulb strat, but starting with Fishing is actively detrimental to bulbing Engineering, and nearly always needing to tech things like Ag/AH, Mining, and TW results in getting Writing later than other leaders which negates the advantage of the cheap library with Creative.
I think he's a very good leader overall and it's hard to have a bad early game with Pericles, but the starting techs (and i guess the UU to a lesser extent) are what prevent him from being a tier 1 leader.
