If I were a leader, my traits would be...

[Kevie]

PHI (cuz i like to think sh*t) and IND (cuz i like to build sh*t)
Leader Kevie. yup yup

 

[Joshua368]

Pro/Exp here (unfortunately, I AM fat).
Proud to be a Charlemange fan!

That's not Charlemagne, it's Mao!

 

[Joecoolyo]

Either Creative/Expansive (I don't really listen to the tips )

or

Imperialistic/Protective

So I'm either Suryavarman or Charlemagne... dang, I have to choose between Mr. Yellow and Burger King (Probably Burger King, because I'm expansive )

 

[TheMeInTeam]

CHA/ORG, but I'm taller than Nappy.

(I didn't see it on the Civ IV ref tables, who is the PRO/ORG leader? And don't say Supr49er).

Is it a bad sign that I ran through the leaders in my mind and realized very quickly that there was none?

I occasionally wonder if my success at high levels is more a function of actual skill, or just knowing how the game/each leader operates so well that I can get away with suboptimal play and piggyback the AIs .

 

[BakingTheArt]

CRE/PHI.

Perciles. Hell yes.

 

[CCRunner]

Financial and Industrious. Industrious is due to me being lazy but super efficient and Financial because I'm rich compared to my peers.

 

[Godwynn]

Financial/Organized

I was surprised to see that there wasn't a PRO/ORG leader. It doesn't seem like an overly powerful combo like PHI/IND, and the synergies don't clash like CHA/CRE (that's the other "forbidden" trait combo, isn't it?). Weird.

Sorry to digress.

I've wondered about what they would make me if they were creating a AI leader in my own likeness. Honestly they could go a couple different ways with that. But by your definitions up there in the OP, it would probably end up being Spiritual/Creative with Protective as another strong possibilty. By my own standards I'd say Philisophical and Imperialistic could also be strong candidates, and even Industrialistic to a much lesser extent depending on how you look at the word.

As for the game I just like the power Philisophical and Industrial gives you. Way overpowered and too much fun to turn up, in my opinion. Spiritual is pretty fun too because there's never any anarchy turn waits.

One thing I know that can be definately eliminated from the list of possibilities is Organized. That, I am not.

Edit: Nice touch on the smiley!

Ooops... Pro/Imp... That's Charlemagne.
