Sid>Spock

Nimoy is best. But I find the Aesthetics quote annoying and wordy, which doesn't help Sid's cause.
 
Nimoy was better, hands down.

Sometimes he sounds like they took the quotes during lunchbreak, with him chewing down the worlds largest peanutbutter roll.

"Please Mr. Nimoy, one more quote"
-"cant i even eat here?"
"Just Mysticism, then well leave you alone. You dont even need to stop eating, just say it"
-"Mhyouave mhjdiscovjmhered mjhsticjschm"

Oh yes, he was the king of talking with your mouth full.
And shut.
Underwater.
 
Leonard Nimoy was a perfect pick. I was really impressed when I heard his voice on the game:eek: . Now about a decent patch....
 
That's right shoppers! Mass Media has been researched! It's a huge, huge, huge sale of United Nations! usage. All sorts of ranges of options can be used. Slavery? Gone!
Police State? Gone!
ICBMs? I wish they were gone!
For a lot of hammers today, for a Diplomatic Victory tomorrow!

The boss has gone crazy and has gone and researched fission! This means Uranium can have even more uses! It's absolutely insane. The Manhattan Project has been directly imported to your civilization!
ICBMs can be built with this wonder! With them, your enemies will be all MASSIVELY REDUCED (down to radioactive waste!)
You can also build tactical nukes! They have a range of 5 squares! That's right! 5 squares! 5 Squares! This number is never to be repeated again, 5 squares!
You can import them directly onto a submarine or missile cruiser and make them walk straight out the door on the enemy! That Montezuma will never know what hit him, because he's ABSOLUTELY INSANE!!

Offensive.
 
While I agree that Sid wasn't exactly the best choice, Nimoy's work wasn't a whole lot better. His delivery was a bit on the lifeless side.

Like other people around here, I feel SMAC did it best.
 
Does anyone know if it's possible to go back to the full announcement for each tech discovered in 3.13? Since patching...every time I make a discovery all I get is "You have discovered Communism", with no tech-pop or anything. I liked the old way better.
 
Spock's voice has more bass than Sid's.

Well, Sputnik was quoted without emothion or zing, but Napoleon and Capone et al were quite good.

[surly:mad: ] "... I have no time for such nonsense."
[cynically frank:p ] "You can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with just a kind word."

Of course after a few years, we come to expect Nimoy. It's jarring to hear anyone else. Maybe we'll get used it, or they can importune Spock to VO the new techs and patch Sid out. No offense. ;)
 
I'm sure it wouldnt cost too much to get the voice actor who did Cain from the Diablo series... that would be cool (assuming that Leonard Nimoy is not available for whatever reason). Sid is ok, but he is not a voice actor.
