What We Know About Brave New World

Bite, the Shoshone and Venice are officially confirmed by Ed Beach during the Civil War Livestream; nothing was changed
 
Misspelled the Shoshone capital the first time around (fixed now) - it's Moson Kahni, with an I at the end, and with the H after the A.
 
ok i have updated the first posts, if I have missed anything please let me know
 
I'm pretty sure it's just the Shoshone not Bannock-Shoshone. That name only is mentioned for Pocatello not the civ itself..

On the official Civ 5 Facebook page they announced him like this

"Introducing Chief Pocatello, leader of the Bannock-Shoshone tribe, spent his life attempting to find some means of coexistence with the white settlers encroaching on the Shoshone territory throughout the 19th century."

True but after that.. in any interview or with any screenshot both journalists and devs speak about the Shoshone.. I think it's pretty comparable to Gajah Mada being introduced as the leader of the Majapahit while in-game he is the leader of the Indonesian Civilization..

Edit: Even Kate in her post on this forum keeps reffering to them as the Shoshone..
 
It's The Shoshone. Why is this even a discussion?
 
When in doubt go to the source, I have had it confirmed that it is still the Shoshone
 
- Trade Missions now show you how much Gold and Influence you are going to gain
- Solomon Linda (Great Musician) + Rock Band portrait as the modern icon for Great Musicians
- Shoshone get 14 free tiles (counting the base 6 an base 1 for the city tile itself)
- Barbarians seem to now have Horse units
- Shoshone start with a Pathfinder instead of a Warrior.

Venice
Great Galleass: Strength 18, Range Attack 20, Cost 48 production, Moves 3, Range 2 (In G&K Galleass is Strength 16, Range Attack 17, Cost 100 production, Moves 3, Range 2)

Shoshone
When he founded the Shoshone capital it gained a random 8 extra tiles. When he founded an additional city it also gained a random 8 extra tiles. So that's a total of 15 tiles counting the city tile, not 14 as the previous poster stated.

Pathfinder: Strength 8, Cost 30 production In the video the Warrior is 8 str, 26 production indicating quick speed. Thus the standard speed cost of the pathfinder should be around 46 production.
Comanche Riders: Movement 5, Strength 34 (In G&K Cavalry is Movement 4, Strength 34)

Edit: Apparently the Shoshone segment was played on quick speed.

Further analysis of the video indicates the production cost of some units have been reduced. http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=12566569&postcount=169
