Ok I'd forgotten how but now I just remembered

 

[cybrxkhan]

i think maybe even a "Non-Western" Civ may be unecessary for CivX... maybe just make them (the non-westerners) barbs.

I'd love to have something like "Tarja Halonen of the Europeans" or such, I mean, if Africa's one, I want Europe to be one!

How about 'John Howard of the Asians,' while we're at it.

 

[Elta]

Shaka Zulu of thr Bantus maybe? .... wait is Shaka even a Bantu?

All Zulus are Bantu. I've been wishing for that!

 

[Elta]

Yeah the Bantus conquered 3/4ths of "black" Africa in a short amount of time - I think they should get a civilization.

 

[Swein Forkbeard]

Honestly, I see no reason for us to continue over this thing about Africa. The thing is that kids generally know about "African" tribes and how they can be really at warfare, but they don't actually know our names.

Seriously, this game is meant to get others to try Civilization. What we think is just what our hardcore fans think, and how many Civfanatics members do you think are be part of the new audience Firaxis is heading after? Almost none.

 

[Nuka-sama]

Thanks for the support. I thought people were going to laugh at me. They always do....

 

[cybrxkhan]

They were featured in Rise of Nations. And althuogh emcompassing a large area of similar cultures, it is more specific than "Africa" definitely.

As I posted in another thread, Shaka is now the leader of the ZULU Civ.

 

[cybrxkhan]

^can you show us where this was announced? or is this a Firaxian trick ?

 

[Kao'chai]

No stupider than Sitting Bull of the Native Americans in BtS.

That's what I'm going to say .

 

[Padma]

^can you show us where this was announced? or is this a Firaxian trick ?

It wasn't "announced". I saw it when I played the game. (See this thread. )

We asked about it, and they said they agreed with the fuss about it, and changed it, already.

 

[cybrxkhan]

And Catherine will be hot again... how young is she in this version (not Boadicea 50 year old?)?

and its good they did listen to us about it. i am glad.

 

[Padma]

Yes, Catherine is hot! I would say she looks twenty-something.
