What will the next DLC have?

[Pouakai]

Why ? Is it because they got an helicopter named after them ? If so, it's pretty much irrevelant, almost facetious !
They were both plain indians and a cavalery people but only one achieved a major victory against the US at little bighorn.

Well, Apache just sounds cooler IMO. But other than that, in games like this (Age of Empires III) I feel the Apache are underrepresented, much like Siam or Songhai

But in relation to other tribes in the U.S. I don't think they've had the most lasting impact, I think even Cherokee would have to be ahead of them considering their history/territory/military campaigns/legacy. Still, i think the next should be Sioux or Mississippi.

gotta go with sioux for a NA civ... kinda biased as some of my family is from an eastern sioux tribe.

 

[awesome]

sioux would probably be fun, since they're pretty much the stereotypical native americans anyway, but they didn't really have too many settlements

I´m really hoping for the Austrian Empire as a DLC, although I don´t think they will put them in, since they never did in all civ titles. (And No, that´s got absolutely nothing to do with my origin! )
The Austrian Empire as a civ could get a cultural trait, with some renaissance/industrial era UU (special cannon? I think so far there´s no UU replacing cannons) and maybe an opera house replacement with extra

And "Habsburg inbreeding - 2% chance each turn of inheriting another civ and 0,1% chance per turn elapsed of immediately losing the game as your line dies out" as a UA

LOL! And -10% combat strength for every unit, as we lost almost every important battle in our history!

Guys, looks like it'll definately be Wonders of the Ancient world, which puts in a good case for Korea:

I can honestly not see how that would give a good case to Korea
If anything it should support something like Carthage, though I wouldn't bet on them either.

 

[Dragonflow]

The area occupied by the civ does not vote it out, we have Denmark in the game!

Well Denmark did rule over Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland and Greenland so I wouldn't call them a small civ.

I personally hope the new DLC civ is going to be African something like Ethiopia, Kongo, Zimbabve, Carthage or maybe South Africa. I really like European civs but I think the old continent can wait and if they plan to add another euro civ than hopefully it will be an eastern European civ like Poland, Hungary, Serbia, Byzantium or Ukraine.

On world maps Africa is always so empty and definitely under represented.

People hate hearing it, but 'that German guy' predicted 'Wonders of the Ancient World' and 'Korea Civilization and Scenario pack'

That's, of course, is true, Denmark (well, the Kingdom of Denmark, not the nation) technically, though not really,still is the largest Scandinavian country, due to Greenland, but one must not forget that Korea once stretched outside its peninsula as well!

 

[Kimuyama]

Yes, a modern day Korean War scenario would be awesome, and the only civ missing for it to work is Korea (the other participants being USA, Russia and China, i believe).
One faction would be South Korea/USA/UN(?) and the other'd be NK/China/USSR.
CiV needs more modern day action!

 

[awesome]

i don't think they'd add a modern unit for korea

 

[Kimuyama]

Neither do I, a scenario does not always need the unique unit, that which matters in this scenario could be different unique abilities for the two Koreas (note, for the Sccenario, not for the civ in normal games).
They'd probably get the Hwacha or the Turtle Ship as usual.

 

[awesome]

well, did the explorer's scenario use the berserker unit for denmark? it makes the most sense if the scenario uses at least one of the new civilization's units, even if the others get different ones.

 

[Kimuyama]

True, true, the scenarios "main idea" is to present the civilization, but a Korean War scenario would still be pretty damn awesome!

 

[MisterBoomBoom]

The Dutch with a "Queen Anne's War" scenario on an archipelago map! Sounds right to me.

Yeah, we got Giant Death Robots already, and they weren't in history, so why not a continuation of the Korean War to finally end that damn ceasefire once and for all? I say bring it on.

Of course, it's not happening, but you can always hope.....

 

[Johan de Witt]

you know its just too small of an area...

You do know that present-day Korea (North + South) has around 73 million inhabitants? If the two were joined, they would rank 18th worldwide in population.

 

[killmeplease]

and South Korean GDP is 15th
