[R&F] Rise and Fall General Discussion Thread

Not quite right. Spain was included in G&K, but the Inca were not. And then Spain was omitted from BNW, so if you wanted to play BNW with Spain, you needed either G&K or the DLC. The only expansion civ included in both G&K and BNW was Ethiopia (because they wanted them for the BNW "Scramble for Africa" scenario).
Possible Georgian symbols: grapevine cross, Tamar's squarish crown, any of these objects, Jvari Monastery, Tamar's monogram, The Knight in the Panther Skin (written in Tamar's court), The Vani Gospels, a lion or its cub (a reference to several sayings about Tamar: "A lion is known by its claws, Tamar by her actions." "A lion cub is just as good, be it male or female." Etc.), a date or date palm (the literal meaning of Tamar's name)...

I wonder what would Tamar's trade delegation give to your civ.

I would just like to say that "Mongol Monday" is a very fun thing to say. I mean it probably wasn't a very fun thing for Kievan Rus or most of Asia but still.

Following Mongol Monday is the famous Tamar Tuesday, then Wilhelmina Wednesday, then Theodora Thursday, then Frederick Barbarossa Friday, then Six Sky Saturday, and finally Seondeok Sunday.

I'm sure vast swaths of Asia are appreciative.

They would rather have Seondeok Sunday instead.

Mongols will have a yoke in the little map montage... I think Ghengis had to wear one for a while. I think the little pictogiffy symbols arise from legends about the person...
"They forced him to wear a cangue, a heavy wooden yoke that encircled his neck and wrists. Its weight and shape made him uncomfortable whether he tried to rest or walk around. He was virtually helpless, unable even to feed himself. Wearing the cangue in humiliation, Temujin was passed among different families." Life & Times of Ghengis Khan

52 more days to go according to Firaxis time!
We will know if the Mongols show up well before then.
We also need to make at least 37 posts per day to keep up the pace.

I haven't been keeping up that much in this thread, do we still have the possibility of [Isabella] from the leaked leader reveal to be the alt leader in R&F? Or completely disregard her?

That was Isabella of Spain if I recall correctly.

But answering your question, we're not really sure where this new leader is going to beyond the fact that it will go to a Civ that's already in the game. The general consensus is that Spain, France, Egypt, India, and China seem to be the most in need of a new leader.
