Sunday's PAX talk (with summary of the info)

Also, I would strongly suspect since there is a big picture of some character on the menu, we'll be getting a new intro video to skip.
 
It showed every religion option with a mouseover, and the cursor did very briefly mouse over and provide a tooltip for at least one of the new resources, just not fast enough to see in realtime. If we can get a slightly better quality video there'll be a ton of info can be pulled off it. They moused over both the Carthage UUs too, and I think from what I saw the Battering Ram is just a regular spearman with a little ^ promotion that gives it its city bonus.
 
Elizabeth and Greg said that they were visiting Firaxis tomorrow for a couple of days and having an interview with Dennis Shirk. I'd suggest that the last civ will probably be revealed at that point along with some other bits and pieces.
 
Warsaw is still a city state: Poland is definitively ruled out as the last civ. (Although by this point it was already unlikely).
 
Its hard to determine if the combat AI is any better. It was mostly on the defensive. Too bad they did not show it attack in a naval battle, or show its supposed amphibious capability. What really sucks about his whole weekend at PAX, is how G&K got relatively little time compared to the other games being shown. None of the others interested me really. I am too into TBS I suppose.
 
Here's a picture of Haile Selassie.

They were up for all of one second, so let's wait until the video's out. ;)

I wouldn't be surprised if the new trading feature was 'information'.

Also, as a bit of trivia, Haile Selassie is the most modern leader ever featured in any Civilization game - dying five years after De Gaulle, the previous most modern.

haha, we thought of the same thing at the same time :lol:
 
Beat ya to it :D

And if we're going by when they were in power, then Charles De Gaulle is the latest. (He's also the second most modern by death - I was wrong about Churchill.)
 
No Stockholm, no Helsinki, no Riga, no Tallinn as city states. Sweden is still possibly the new Civ.

Do you see how foggy and out of focus the pic is, just to try to keep us blind. I hope someone goes over that video good and takes screenshots and brings them into focus.

They may be there they did not show all city states that could be in game. I also did not see a mercantile CS.
