My Picks (there will be some out there who might think of me as odd, but I release them here anyways)
Civilizations (Pick 8):
Choices that Firaxis Provided:
Babylonia (Considered the Cradle of Civilization by many)
Korea (I tend to favor Asiatic civs)
Celts (Do I have to explain this? Their warrior tradition is awesome!)
Polynesia (One of the best seafaring nations EVER. Plus the food is to die for)
Choices that I added:
Ainu (White native Asiatic guys. People consider their presence to be very suspicious, but it's claimed, with genetics backing it up, that they've been there longer. What could be cooler than a white Asiatic nation running around?)
Armenian (First to invent the Alphabet. A definate MUST)
Songhai (HUGE African Megacivilization. If you're going to include African civilizations, you just about need them, with all their influence)
Ki****e (I didn't know that Civfanatics had a censor. This one should be whitelisted. Please) (Great Egypt wanna be. If Egypt wasn't so popular, they probably would be as popular as Egypt, as Egypt imitated them, to some degree)
New Leaders (Pick 4)
Their Picks:
Egypt: Rameses II (The slaver himself. I'd like to see someone who's not afraid of using the whip. Let's get a little bit of dictatorship within the game)
England: Winston Churchill (Despite the fact that I don't think that England needs a third leader, I think that leaving out one of the greatest diplomats ever was a big mistake)
Russia: Joseph Stalin (I have an evil streak. Everyone gather round and sing the Internationale)
My pick:
Mali: Sundiata Keita (Mansa Musa is great and all, but he doesn't compare to this ruler who started it all. Myth has put him in classes with such greats as Hercules. I'd like to see him bend my tank's barrel on his lands. I'd respond by the appropriate nuking. As I like to say, if you can't beat them, nuke 'em, then nuke 'em some more for the fun of it)
