Will we ever get to choose between a couple different leaders for each Civ? I'd LOVE to play as Franz Joseph of Austria (-Hungary)!!!
I'd rather they put their work into new CIVs than into new leaders for existing ones.
It wouldn't make sense to give another UA with a new leader,because most of the UA aren't based on the leader's history,but rather,on the history of the civilization .
I'm not sure what new civilisations could be added in a second expansion, assuming Portugal and the Zulu will indeed be DLC.
There are plenty of options for civilization for a second expansion:
Majapahit
Poland
Kongo
Brazil
Sioux(or other Northwest American tribe)
Chachapoya
Gran Colombia
Chacapoya
Vietnam
Serbia

Maurya Empire(or other Civilization from the Indian subcontinent that isn't directly represented by Modern India)
I've written something like this before: The amount of work that goes in to making the leader for a civ is almost as much as for the rest of the civ, and few people would probably buy a leader for full civ-price, so for just a tiny amount of more work (uu- and ub-art, models etc.), they could cash in for a full civilization.
Why have different sauces...it's all just chicken, right?
Having different leaders to choose from is a fun way of slightly changing a Civ, while still retaining the core feel and functioning of said civilization (assuming the different leaders bring with them different bonuses, obviously). Besides....I'm not gonna have my Austria led by a cross-dressing 'Franz Joseph'!![]()
I'll be honest....I don't think most of those would be good Civs. No need to dig that deep while we are still missing Portugal, Sumeria, & Zulu.
Fact is, we already have plenty of civilizations. Multiple rulers with their own UAs (maybe even their own UUs!) would help spice it up without having to bring on too many B- and C-list Civ candidates (not meaning to sound harsh....just trying to look at it from a realistic developer/player perspective).
I've always thought an alternate version of certain civs would be appropriate. USSR, NAZI Germany, British Empire/Great Britain come to mind. They could be different leaders (Stalin, Hitler, Churchill) with different UAs.
