Male/female leaders

[Huayna Capac357]

I miss male/female leaders! That was such an awesome idea!!!

I want it for Civ V!!!!!!

 

[Valka D'Ur]

But Civ II HAS male/female leaders. In fact, at this very moment I'm playing Nazca of the Aztecs, and she's female.

 

[CSDanger]

I only got Civilization 2 so I don´t have this problem. But anyway it is better to have male and female leaders so you can choose.

For example for germany: Friedrich the great as male and for female: "drumrolling": Angela Merkel

 

[Huayna Capac357]

I meant I missed them for Civ III and Civ IV.

 

[Gaius Octavius]

The heck with male/female leaders, I want the throne room back in Civ V!

Although this feature was nice, too.

 

[Nylan]

I liked it, you're in a bit of a fix if you're trying to create a scenario where you need a female leader but that Civ only has guys.

And yes, I miss the throne room too

 

[Theov]

uhhhhh mmmmmmmm, excuse my ingnorance, but what the hell is the question?
There's Cleo and I remember some spanish chick I never called again.

There should be male and female leaders available. You might need them for a game situation, plus there are female gamers who might not like having to play as a dude.

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

...Or vice versa.

Well, CivIV sort of tackled the problem, but I feel you pain.

I don't have the game yet, so I'm just curious: who are the different leaders in Civ2? Could I have a list?

 

[salty mud]

I just copied this from Wikipedia.

Only one civilization per color, per game
WHITE Romans Russians Celts
GREEN Babylonians Zulus Japanese
BLUE Germans French Vikings
YELLOW Egyptians Aztecs Spanish
TEAL Americans Chinese Persians
ORANGE Greeks English Carthaginians
PURPLE Indians Mongols Sioux
RED Barbarians (NPC)

Sorry, I can't find the leaders anywhere. Use your imagination.

 

[Huayna Capac357]

WHITE Romans (Julius, Livia) Russians (Lenin, Catherine) Celts (Brennus?, Boudicca)
GREEN Babylonians (Hammurabi, Ishtari) Zulus (Shaka, Shakala) Japanese (Tokugawa, Amaterasu)
BLUE Germans (Frederick II, Maria Theresa) French (Louis XIV, Joan D'Arc) Vikings (Canute, Gunnhild)
YELLOW Egyptians (Ramses, Cleopatra) Aztecs (Montezuma II, Nazca) Spanish (Isabella, Philip II)
TEAL Americans (Lincoln, Eleanor Roosevelt) Chinese (Mao, Wu) Persians (Xerxes, Sheharazade)
ORANGE Greeks (Alexander, Hippolyta) English (Elizabeth, Henry VIII) Carthaginians (Hannibal, Dido)
PURPLE Indians (Gandhi, Indira Gandhi) Mongols (Genghis Khan, ?) Sioux (Sitting Bull, Sacagawea)

Hope this helps

That's just what I was looking for. Thanks!

I think I prefer the current leaderships for a real mechanical difference rather than just flavoursome names in the game. There is the ability to mod or download mods for others. However playing Civ II again last night for the first time in years I kind of felt nostalgic for Gunnhild and am looking forward to finding out tonight what the female Mongol is.

...Or vice versa.

Well, CivIV sort of tackled the problem, but I feel you pain.

Funny thing is, I feel like more like a tranny when I play as Xerxes than any other leader.

Thank you South Park.

Just thought I'd fill in the female mongol leader is Bortei.

 

[Huayna Capac357]

BTW: the Celtic male leader isn't Brennus. I can't remember who it actually was, but it ain't Brennus!

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

Cunobelin.

 

[Anithraldur]

There should be male and female leaders in all new versions of Civ, AND a throne room, AND a palace, dammit.

Could be fun/creative that way, including customizing your palace.
