Polynesia (or parts of Polynesia) are an option in the Missing Civs thread.
Italy is one of those rare cases when a part of a civ has been depicted (ie. Venice) but not the whole civ.
There are just three Native American options above, out of 30 poll choices. I don't perceive that as a particular focus.
This isn't an exercise in representing all the earth in a poll (not possible), just trying to offer some selections that Firaxis might possibly consider marketing (and a couple they won't that people still really, really want).
If your favorites aren't there, vote "other" and tell us what they are.
I notice a pirate civilization in the Civ Battle Royale from time to time. What would be the best shot of a pirate like civ being added to the game? That's what I want most I guess. Here are my picks from the list:
Changed my vote after some thought.
Realized that no Polynesians were on here. Instead of Hungary I went with a Polynesia Civ.
Would prefer Samoa then Maori, but not picky. Just not a blob.
Or would this somewhat count as returning?
1. Cuba as Carribean Civ with Plantation bonuses and adjacency bonuses, Revolutionaries UU (maybe UU visible for other Civs as barbarians, controlling rebels after spy action), or Unique government district allowing flexible gameplay similar to Tropico choice (either production/communist or capitalist/tourism)
2. Nepal (Tibet substitute) Religion/culture Civ with High Mountain adjacency bonuses, and Gurkha UU
3. Chukchi or Inuits Snow, snow, snow.
4. Ancient Slavs (Veleti for example) Forest Civ. Alternative for Celts. Many Slavic people (From Russia to Czechia) would be happy to play as them.
5. Hungary historic reasons. 6. Hebrews. I know it's impossible... 7. Renessaince Italy! (culture megapower)
- Colombia
- Goths
- Inuit
- Italy
- Romania
- Vietnam
- Other
With other, I like to add a more modern age civilization like Soviet Union, Iraq, Cuba, Haiti, Belgium or Yugoslavia. Maori or other polynesian civ I like too.
7 votes isn't enough. Missing on the list are: Switzerland, Nepal, Powhattan, Madagascar and Lithuania, among others.
Voted for:
Lydia - could also go with Phrygia. Ancient Anatolia needs to be finally represented, their additions to the history of civilization are undeniable.
Hungary - or they could go with Austro-Hungary- in such case 2 leaders, one speaking German and the other Hungarian. 2 capitals: Vienna and Budapest. 2 UU, including the Hungarian Hussar cavalry.
Armenia - major role in the Near East since antiquity. Predecessor: kingdom of Urartu. Armenia under Tigranes (the great).
Italy - too important in history not to finally be included as a nation. Just like Germany, Italy wasn't a unified country till 19th century, yet Deutschland has been in every iteration.
Tibet - won't happen because of China but should. Original culture. Potential Mountain food and movement bonuses and very religious.
Phoenicia/Canaan - Should be in, gave birth to Carthage. Trading, Maritime Civ. Everyone's heard of Tyre, Sidon, Byblos - Phoenician cities. Not expansive but colonial.
Canada - Because this is my homeland. Because Sid Meier, the game's original designer/inventor is Canadian. Canada is a top 5 nation overall in the world in the number of Civ Players. And, Aussies- still ruled by the queen, are in, so why not the Canucks?
Florence (i prefer them above an Italian blob civ)
Muisca
Gauls
Hungary (and i don't want Austria-Hungary, because that's not a civ, if they want to include Austria and Hungary, they should do them separately, not together. And culture-wise they have many differences. Austria makes more sense as part of Germany than as part of an Austro-Hungarian civ... The horror).
Mughals
Ukraine
Vietnam
Ashanti
Also interested in:
Apache
Navajo
Ireland (though maybe civ 7)
Argentina (but maybe civ 7)
Romania
Bulgaria
Zimbabwe
Kilwa
Inuit (could be fun, but maybe too obscure)
Goths
Colombia
Burma
Oman
Taino
Any eastern North American civ that is new
Phoenicia (but not sure what it would mean to Carthage, and i think i prefer Carthage).
Canada (2 leaders), Inuit, Italy (with Altinate leaders), Phonecia, Tibet, Switzerland.
However I doubt Inuit, Phonecia and Tibet won't be in the game due to knowlage or political reasons.
Canada can have a choice of English kr French leaders.
Italy cannot settle cities but gets Girabaldi to conqure, Pope to convert and claim cities through religion, and Enrico to claim cities with money among other leader abilities.
Switzerland always provides open boarders and do not need to be at war to attack units within it's boarders.
If that happened for real, it would be one of the rare examples where i wouldnt' buy the DLC / expansion out of protest. One leader / one civ is okay, and i've accepted that, and will probably still buy the DLC, but they should never get two leaders. Never! I would literally be outraged.
Never + also way too controversial. The game would be forbidden in any Muslim country. If Israel ever makes it into civ, it should have David as leader (or some ancient guy like Abraham? or i don't know much about that civ), but modern Israel would be ridicilous.
Than we also start adding Belgium and Cuba to the game. The latter one isn't even represented by a city-state :/ what saddens me a bit. Havana would be an awesome city-state. Or Nassau would be nice as well (does Caribbean even HAVE (?!) a city-state?
Ashanti - More West African civs! But Additionally to Mali. The two are different enough. Benin - Same, although this could be swapped for Madagascar (obviously a non-West African civ). Burma - Of the Trio Siam/Vietnam/Burma I find Burma most interesting. Vietnam culture and history always pales for me compared to their geological features and flora/fauna. Siam I plainly dislike and it wouldn't be fresh (I'd prefer Ayutthaya). Goths - Excellent leader options, interesting history, could get unique mechanics. Italy - the glaring omission. In whatever form: united Kingdom of Italy, Renaissance city states with the Greece Treatment (TM) or Tuscany/Florence/Genoa. Tibet - Tibet of the Dalai Lamas won't happen (even if the Great Fifth would be a very good leader for civ VI). But how about the Tibetan Empire? other (Nepal) - In my opinion a very deserving civ, quite unique besides being between the big cultural players China and India. Could have interesting options towards mountains and famed for its military and religious freedom.
Well thanks for the accusation. Just what I needed to start my day. Talk about offending for a word.
1) Inuit are not considered "Native Americans" per se. They're indigenous Arctic people. US Government records usually categorize them as "Alaskan natives." That being said, I don't want them in the game and only included them because of their following on the forums.
2) I forgot about the Haida. I included a Pacific Northwest option because of their popularity on the Never Before Seen Civs elimination game in the Ideas forum. Another one I'm not that interested in that I included for the fans.
3) You forgot the etc.'s. People are of many different opinions on which exact tribe they want, so I tried to give them as much leeway as possible. So it's not "9 options." It's essentially, PNW, SE or SW Native Americans. The Shawnee were an afterthought since I've seen people campaigning for Tecumseh. If I had to scratch someone off, it'd be them. So that's four options out of 30.
Considering right now there's just one NA group being included (Cree), North America is pretty wide open.
But whatever. I warned at the beginning that any selection of 30 options would be limited and could not possibly please everybody.
Argh, it's hard to choose from these ... But in the end, I ended up with :
Argentina, Bulgaria, Burma, Haida, Hungary, Swahili and Zimbabwe.
Of course, these are my tastes, and not an absolute opinion to impose to others.
I only can choose seven?
So many of these choices are on my current wishlist. I'll take some time to decide which ones are more deserving of the Civ treatment.
