Great Leaders

[thisismysn20]

Hey I put in the following civs but I have no great leaders for them... anyone have any ideas...

Canada
Australlia
Mexico
Brazil
Argentina
South Africa
Indonesia

 

[Jewell Man]

For Canada I would suggest:

William Avery (aka Billy Bishop): WWI Flying Ace. Most decorated Canadian of World War I

Roy Brown: Another WWI flyer noted for shooting down the infamous Red Baron.

Louis Riel: One of Canada's earliest civil rights leaders and leader of the Red River Uprising. At the time he was considered a traitor and hanged but history has been more favourable and many landmarks/buildings now bear his name.

Those are just several that come to mind.

Mexico should probably have "Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna" better known simply as "Santa Anna".

Hey thisismysn20
Brazil and SA is done with the cities and all, but you need to do some more input on the characteristics.

Thanx Jewell Man.

Mexico can also have Benito Juarez
Argentina can have Juan Peron, Eva Peron
South Africa can have Nelson Mandela, Steven Biko

Thanks guys so far... I can't wait to play this game with all these new civs =)

 

[OmniMower]

Hey,
how many are missing now???

 

[thisismysn20]

The civs we haven't put in yet are...

Australlia
Mexico
Argentina
Indonesia

As for great leaders we have...

Canada: William Avery, Roy Brown, Louis Riel
Australlia: Edmund Barton, William Cook, Sir Donald Bradman, Jack Simpson, Ned Kelly, Ben Hall
Mexico: Santa Anna, Benito Juarez
Brazil:
Argentina: Juan Peron, Eva Peron
South Africa: Steven Biko
Indonesia:

I personally want 3 GL's per civ. So three more for Brazil and Indonesia. Two more for South Africa. One more for Argentina and Mexico. Canada and Australlia are done.

 

[OmniMower]

There must be more ancient great leaders on those civ! Right?

 

[thisismysn20]

Some suggestions for Australia perhaps - in no particular order

William Cook (Edit: Should be James Cook, I do not know what I was thinking that day)

Why don't you use Aussie War Heros instead of polies and sport stars?

Ie. General Monash
Harry Morant
Private Simpson
The Current Guy whose name escapes me
Ect.

Use one or two polies, such as Curtin (WW2)
Out of interest, who is the aussie leader, i think it should be Menzies, Barton or Curtin

 

[Veera Anlai]

Holy cow... I've only heard of two people on that list, and I don't even know what they did -_-

Yea good idea, I couldn't think of any, jack simpson was private simspon, morant is a good one, I have never heard of Monash... But I knew there was a reason they called a suburb in canberra monash. The current guy is cosgrove who I also had, I think.

What did General Monash do?

I always use barton (australias first prime minister) as my leader.
