Information Drought?

[ImperialChaos]

I can see it now:

Half way through the demo ships from Venice will sail on the Atlantic from the East and the Shoshone with their Comanche will come from the plains of the West. They will clash with the Confederates and win the Civil War. That is how they'll be introduced.

 

[Morningcalm]

Where's the news? Seriously, it's been weeks without any significant information or even screenshots (official ones that is, not the unofficial leaked Venice/Shoshone screenshots).

I hope you guys can do something else between the wait. I'm watching this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCSyVl1H-Y4 and I'm so excited to recreate this in new expansion

Mmm. Genius.

Do you think they'll use another canned, mock-humble line such as "Oh.. Our ship seems to have stumbled upon a Venetian Great Galleas in the Atlantic ocean. This is Enrico Dandalo... He seems kind of busy waving his arms in greeting and such and we don't want to bother him so we'll go on our way."

Why exactly don't they ever want to bother the leaders in demo builds?

Wow, thanks for sharing! Watching now!

Shame they didn't introduce Askia like that. "He seems busy committing mass murder and destruction, but let's not bother him".

Surely the leader-screen of Enrico Dandolo will show him dispatching his hordes of Soccer Hooligans (Crusaders) to attack those enemies of Christianity the Byzantine Christians.

And he'll be pointing in the wrong direction, naturally!

Idk what other information do you want at this point? Is there really anything new for them to share to us? Some specifics on the Shoshone and Venice i suppose but other than that I think there isn't much else to say.

The ACW scenario may be interesting to Americans, but outside of the US, the interest in this period is close to nil.

It isn't even necessarily just the outside of the US...
Sure, the Civil War was important, but there are many more historical scenarios that they could have implemented.

In Civilization facebook page they are the official announcement of Venice and Shoshone!

Alright folks, drought's resuming.

Drought over, folks.

Not yet, they are just pics now. We want info!!!
But at least people could now ask questions about them during today session.

 

[blackcatatonic]

Great to finally see Enrico and Pocatello!

Perhaps our "zource" will have something for us tomorrow

I'd say there's almost no doubt about it now!

 

[JSMCAG]

AH, YES! Finally!

Too bad we didn't get any fun games, but I guess we already knew anyway!
Would have still liked to hear a snippet of their themes as a hint though!

Also, Enrico Dandolo's leaderscreen looks beautiful - I love night shots!

Can't wait for the next demo then!
