Guess what, before today I'd never heard of either the Obotrites (aparently a slavic tribe) or the name Inegrid...

Me neither! I don't think the Obotrites are swedish (if they are they must be called something completely different in swedish), and there is no e in Ingrid... But the leaderhead looks very good! :)

Normally there is no e in Ingrid, but in this case the spelling is correct. The Obotrites are not Swedish, but she married the Swedish King Olaf III in 999AD, making her Queen of Sweden at the time.
 
Excellent, I think that I may use her to replace Catherine in the regular game.
 
Obotrite is a Slavic tribe? As names go, Inegrid is similar to Finnish Inkeri, which is (or rather was) used in east parts of Finland, neighboring areas to the Slavic tribes.
 
Okay, R8XFT, I'l lkeep your Big Native American Set, which ws your avatar for a couple of days, a secret. :cool:
 
I also saw that.... I mean.... I didn't see anything.... ;)

Great work on the LH :goodjob: , but some of thse citys in the city list are finnish ones with Swedish names :crazyeye: , and since Ingerid lived in 10'th centuary Finland was not part of Sweden at the time. ;) (1150 is the earliest reference for Swedish troops in Finland)

I stole the list from Animepornstar's mod :) . If you could provide an alternative list, I'd be grateful. As Civ is played over a time period of about 6,000 years, I don't think it matters whether or not the cities belonged to that civilization at the time the person depicted by the leaderhead was alive, as long as they are cities belonging to that civilization at some point.

Thanks everyone for the positive comments :goodjob: .
 
Inegrid? Surely that must be a typo.

In Norway the proper way to spell the name is Ingrid
I assume that is the case for Sweden as well

Edit: Woops - managed to miss a post explaining this

Sorry
 
ignore this post
 
You're back!!! [party] :band: [party]
I had given up looking at this forum as often in your absence - I'll have to start checking every day again... Great new leaderhead! Ragnar is history.
 
Thanks again for all the feedback :goodjob: .

I've updated the city list with the one from the Caroleon Army on CDG. Take note Aaglo - I've included Haparanda!

What should the Swedish UU be? Should we keep the Viking berserk, seeing as Inegrid is from around 1000AD? The Caroleon Army at CDG have some really good stuff from 14th Century onwards. In addition, Steph did some conversions of Swedish Units from 16th/17th Century. Suggestions please and also state what it should replace.
 
Why not the Longship?
