Philosophical Utopia

[coachlentz]

here's a stretch

bob knight is certainly philosophical and aggressive

 

[troilus]

Philo & aggressive? Could use Otto (from "A Fish Called Wanda").

This sounds really cool. Keep up the good work.

As to Industrious/Philosophical, you may want to think of someone like Henry Ford. While not extremly Philosophical, he did do a lot of things which changed the philosophies of manufacturing.

Just a suggestion. Let the flames commence.

Well, beyond the fact that he's way past the Enlightenment, he was a nazi. Good enough for a flame???

hehehe, Bob Knight

Bob: Those Axemen are OUT OF BOUNDS!!
Napoleon: WHAT?! they were ON the line!!!
Bob: OUT!
Napoleon: Foolish American! How could you possibly call that! THEY ARE IN!
Bob: That's it Napoleon, hit the showers! Louis, you're in...

Ford is just a wee bit too new... I want to make all the leaders actually be Enlightenment philosophers. Even Nietzche might be too late, really. Thanks for the suggestions though!

I know More wrote Utopia, but he'd only fit as a Creative leader, and I think Voltaire is more... I dunno, recognizable I guess... I just like'im k?

Hmm, Hobbes' State of Nature *is* a really violent view of mankind... Yeah, I reckon he'd fit the bill as an aggressive leader, thanks! I'll add him sometime next week.

Oh well. More is probably a bit too early anyway.

Great idea. I love this civ.
What about Macchiavelli for an aggressive philosopher?

See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niccolò_Machiavelli
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Prince#Short_Summary

He might be a bit early, then again, Italy was way ahead at that time.

 

[Los Tirano]

yes machiavelli would be a great addition.

 

[Corvex]

I don't know if I'd really describe Machiavelli as a utopian.

 

[heroes182]

I've just uploaded version 1.2!

It adds Thomas Hobbes as the Aggressive/Philosophical leader. Now I just need an industrious one and I'll have a full set!

Check the first post for the file and more information

 

[coachlentz]

you mean there's another leader for utopia and it's STILL not todd rundgren?

guess i'll have to make it myself

i really am going to add him to my mod

 

[Ranjrdanjr]

David Hume was an aggressive philosopher.

I look foward to playing this mod and the Rundgren civ; which, I'm afraid, won't want to work.

 

[coachlentz]

the only thing in the todd.zip are the pictures i used to put him in my allcivs mod. whenever i post an update, he'll be in there

 

[cthom]

what about the music? monty pythons Philosophers Song?

For a better Adam Smith: http://images.google.fi/images?q=adam smith

 

[Register666666]

I think Jefferson would be a good joice for the industrious trait. He was an engineer. There was a t.v. show coming up that was actually gonna look at Jefferson's history as an engineer, think was either the history or the discovery channel.

 

[Lajos]

Is this file / mod still available? The link doesn't seem to work.

 

[heroes182]

Hah, I'm (pleasantly) surprised that there's still interest in the Utopian Empire!

I'm sad to say that I've lost all my files for the mod... If anyone out there has the zip for the latest version, please pm me and I will put it back on my site for downloading.

I might add Jefferson as Industrious as well, sounds like a good idea!

 

[Lajos]

I found the file on:

http://browse.files.filefront.com/C...Civilizations/;1557839-0-13;/browsefiles.html

but that version is not v1.61 compatible.

 

[ParkCungHee]

Oh! Oh! How about Hegel? Of course that opens up the can of worms of the correct inteperetation.
