Ashanti 18
Babylonians 19
Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA 14
Ethiopians 20
Georgians 12 (11 + 1) -- It is not yet time to say mshvidobit’ to King Tamar.
Incas 20 (23 - 3) -- With all due respect to the Inca, I disagree that they should be leading this list; the Maya are and should be. The Inca needed another century or two to hit their peak, time they weren't given; the Inca as they were were not the equals of the Maya.

Khmer 21
Koreans 22-3=19 With all due respect for the Korean people, I don't see Korea as powerful or as interesting as the remaining civs on this list. I like Korea, but I like the rest of the remaining on this list more.
Malians 22
Maori/Other Polynesians 18
Mayans 24
Mongols 23
Ottoman Turks 13+1=14 I'm frankly surprise to see the Ottoman Turks so low, since they had such a powerful empire in the 15th,16th,and 17th centuries.
 
Ashanti 18
Babylonians 16 (19 - 3) This civ is treated as an obvious favorite over Assyria or the Hittites, but I still haven't seen a good argument as to why this should be the case.
Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA 12
Ethiopians 20
Georgians 12
Incas 21 (20 + 1) I definitely would have chosen the Maya over the Aztecs, and on a completely blank map, I could have seen prioritizing the Maya over the Inca. Given that we do have the Aztecs, though, I'd place the Inca first and the Maya second or third.

I don't prioritize Assyria over Babylon. I'd really like to see them both, like in Civ5. (And if Civ6 is the first game to break the 50 civ record, that might be possible!) If you'd rather see Assyria, that's totally fine, although the misbegotten version of Sumer that is in-game is currently filling the role of the more aggressive Mesopotamian civ.

The Hittites, however, are Anatolian rather than Mesopotamian, so I don't see why they should be held up in direct competition for Babylon's spot. Ideally, we'll get all of the above at some point so we can make a proper ancient Near East scenario.

How did the Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA score decrease from 14 to 12 between these two posts? Foul Play? :p

You're lucky you posted this right before my vote :P Score fixed.

Mongols 23-3=20 - Not worthy enough to be second in lead. I'd love their return, but we already have a horse horde Civ. It's called Scythia. It's presence lowers my interest in them.
Ottoman Turks 14+1=15 - They must return.

Maori/Other Polynesians 18+1=19 we need to have the Maori before firaxis thinks is a good idea to have New Zealand, also tu'i Tonga could be an interesting civ

Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA (14+1)=15 The Creek are a fine alternative to the Iroquois.
Ethiopians 20
Georgians 9
Incas 21
Khmer 21
Koreans 19
Malians (22-3)=19 They had a great empire, but I find them less interesting than the other remaining African options (particularly because they are Islamic). I'm sure they will return in place of Songhai.

Ashanti 18

Georgians 9 - 3 = 6 (Not enthused given the remaining groups on this list. They should be proud of having made it this far.)
Incas 21
Khmer 21
Koreans 19
Malians 19
Maori/Other Polynesians 19 + 1 = 20 (Fierce warriors with muskets as well as beautiful meeting houses carved of wood and shell. Explorers, conquerors, resisters.)

Ethiopians 17 (20-3) this must have been overlooked somehow

Georgians 6 -- Alas, Tamar, forgive me, for I have failed you. :cry:
Incas 21
Khmer 21
Koreans 20 (19 + 1) -- Korea isn't just "that other China"; it has a long and unique history and a rich culture.
Malians 16 (19 - 3) -- Of the three African nations on this list, I find them the least interesting. They certainly shouldn't be ahead of Ethiopia.

Maori/Other Polynesians 20
Mayans 24
Mongols 21

Ashanti 18
Babylonians 16+1=17 What I said this morning in my comment above. Plus, I'll be really sad if we don't get them back. They've been a tradition since Civ 1!
Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA 15
Ethiopians 17
Georgians 6-3=3 At least I'm not going to be the one to push poor Tamar over the edge.

Ethiopians 14 (17 - 3) In the abstract, I'd probably take Ethiopia over Mali, but Ethiopia was in Civ V and is a close neighbor of Civ VI's Nubia, while Mali hasn't been seen since Civ IV.
Incas 21

Malians 17 (16 + 1) See above.

Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA 12 (15 - 3) There are other Native American tribes I'd prefer to see.

Khmer 21
Koreans 20
Malians 17
Maori/Other Polynesians 20
Mayans 24
Mongols 21
Ottoman Turks 16 (15 + 1) These feel like a must, but really I just want to see great onion hat in Civ VI's art style.

Maori/Other Polynesians 20
Mayans 24-3=21 - They are a good addition, I agree, but I don't think they should be leading. At least not for three points.
Mongols 21
Ottoman Turks 16+1=17 - They were one of the most influental empires in history. They should definitely return.
 
Ashanti 18
Babylonians 18
Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA (12+1)=13 Sadly, Ethiopia is falling around the same time, for the most petty of reasons. While there are other Native American peoples with more fame/name recognition than the Creek, I think the Creek are still worthy enough to be added to the game. They are one of the main descendants of the Mississippians/Moundbuilders.
Ethiopians 14
Incas 21
Khmer 21
Koreans 20
Malians (17-3)=14 I don't find them as interesting as the Ashanti and Ethiopia as an African civilization, mainly due to their heavy borrowing of Islamic/Arab culture. I'm sure they will return eventually.

Mayans 21
Mongols 21
Ottoman Turks 17
 
Ashanti 18
Babylonians 18
Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA 13-3=10 native Americans don't really interest me at the moment
Ethiopians 14+1=15 how is Ethiopia going down so fast? It's the greatest civilization of subsaharan Africa!
