DLC 6 Anticipation Thread

[MrRadar]

I summoned a dev once. He wasn't from the right company though.

Oh, a bit of bad luck, but you know, practice makes perfect. Have you tried again? And again?

It could be a scenario about the civs that struggled to crush Napoleon: Britain, Prussia, Austria, and Russia.

Oh great Napoleon is returning....
Why can't we have a different male French leader for once?

See Eagles Post on why we can't have another
Napoleon was a massive douche-bag, but undeniably one of the very greatest military leaders ever. He is in the top cadre of personalities that make Civ what it is. That's the great thing about when multiple leaders are an option - at least we can have him, and the other can rotate

I'd much rather have Louis XIV, myself.

 

[Ferocitus]

Hmm, leaders of France DLC with Napoleon and Joan of Arc?

Joan of Arc would be awful. I'd even prefer Pepé Le Pew over that short-term nutjob.

This is just based on the 'drawing of woman with a sword' tweet discussion from a few weeks back.

Day 3: Keeping the bluff up is tedious, hope conorbebe spills the beans soon.

Well at least I gave you all something to discuss.

I'll be very curious to see the city list for Indonesia... No borobudur is strange, of course it was built not by the majapahit empire but by the srivijaya one, so if Palembang is not present in the city list... May point to another future civ or alternate leader.

I wouldnt read too much into these scenario texts, there doesnt seem to be one for the new SEA scenario, for example, and as far as I remember there already had been unused scenario texts back in civ4 or so.

Actually, this seem to be working names for the multiplayer scenarios.

There is a scenario entitled Golden Horde however, which presumably is what Civ GH is.

I theorise the next batch of DLCs are these scenarios. Whether they contain new civs or not is a mystery. The Napoleon and Cold War scenarios would suggest new alt leaders for France, America, and Russia. But the Golden Horde were an offshoot of the Mongols I believe?

That's been mentioned before, but I think people decided that was made into the Poland scenario.

While some Civs deserve/need a new leader, I'd rather have new Civs, myself. Including one Central European country...

Strange people distributing drawings of women with swords on Twitter is no basis
for a system of upgrades.

I think France, Egypt, and India are all on the short list for "needs an alt leader".

Ding ding! Correct!

They are all multiplayer scenarios, sorry I would have noticed earlier if I played multiplayer.
Tbf, there is none for the Golden Horde texts, but I still think this subject has come up before.

I only bring it up because GH sounds a lot like Golden Horde.

 

[Kimiimaro]

Genghis Khan.
Genghis Khan.
Genghis Khan.
Genghis Khan.
Hungary and Bohemia.

I always thought the G = 7 H = 8 (no. of DLC) line of thinking was stronger.

Well or GHana, but that was only before the africa part of the 2 newest DLCs was done.

I’ve never played multiplayer either Ah well.

I want a civ that utilizes the alt-leader mechanic to its full potential *cough*Italy*cough*

Could they just be the internal file names for those multiplayer scenarios that came with the game? The global thermonuclear war one would make sense to have had the "cold war" name while they were developing it. I can't actually remember what the others are atm

I summoned a dev once. He wasn't from the right company though.

We could try flattering Pete Murray again... I remember trying that before in case he was reading the thread.
