Yeah, I really love those advisors!
It made to whole game alive so much more.
I really do hope they'll return for Civ 5 or something
It also gave you a nice sense of which era you were in

Since we're setting the way-back machine for 1995 today, does anyone recall the "Wishlist for Civilization II" (or, it may actually have been called Civilization 2000,) that a bunch of die-hards were circulating around the Internets -- back before anyone even knew that there was going to be a Civilization II? I tried doing a google search, but couldn't find it. It had a lot of ideas, some that eventually ended up in the franchise, and others that just didn't (like refugees...although there was a variant of that in SMAX, IIRC.)
Maybe you only watched them for 10 games. I problably watched them for 50ish. Then turned them off for a few hundred games. Then turned them on for the next few hundred games, until I lost my CD. (Yes, I really played that many civ2 games
)"Our spy network tell us that other nations hold us in the highest regard sir. I await your further instructions." Or something like that. I remember her once saying this when we were at war with half the civs and the other half hated us
I don't think firaxis will ever (re)make a council. If anyone does it it'll problably have to be a mod, but what are the chances of that? (I'm not making one, I don't miss them THAT much
)While we are strolling down memory lane, does anybody else miss the govt/civic based graphic changes to leader heads? I always got a kick out of modern republican Shaka wearing his bowler! With the current animated leader heads and multiple civic based system it would be very difficult to implement these days, but a guy can always hope.
Another "flavor" feature I miss is the sight of your armies marching through the streets of newly conquered towns! The troops updated as you progressed through the eras as I recall. This one they could bring back easily enough if they were so inclined.

I liked that feature as well. It was in right off the bat from Civ1. They also showed a similar screen when buildings were completed with the building appearing [although now we get to see the buildings in our cities which is even better]
