I have started playing the Celts for this month, so it is also time to vote for August. The possible options come from suggestions from last month's poll. Next poll is going to be about new civilizations again, so no suggestions this time.
I played a Japan game from 3000 BC start and China had Riflemen in 1200 AD. So that was interesting.Byzantine sounds to be much harder than it was, and who am i to disrespect the modmaker with an improper challenge? Team Byzantium GO!
Regarding August... Japan? I'd say it must be one of the most challenging civs right now. Bonus points if the walkthrough will include cheesing player's own mod (new UHV1 feels more cheese-proof than the old one, but who knows if you can abuse it in some way...)
Not only the riflemen, but how can one pull out 5 Golden Ages without the Tour Eiffel wonder (built in Japan, 1740) is beyond me. It requires 16 great people in a very short timeframe. I also hope that it would promp an UHV/UB/UU general rework for the Argentinians, I feel like they could use some love. IIRC, it was already discussed in past times, without much change happening.Shilling for Argentina so Leoreth can:
In general I think the South American civs all feel really painful to play against the European tech imbalances, so I want to see Leoreth tackle one of them.
- Play a game in the Modern Era and suffer through trying to kill Spanish Riflemen with Argentine Musketmen.
- Play a game in South America and *see above*.
- Suffer through the 5 Golden Age UHV and *see above*.
It was actually my first post on the forum lol, and third last UHV to be achieved.Not only the riflemen, but how can one pull out 5 Golden Ages without the Tour Eiffel wonder (built in Japan, 1740) is beyond me. It requires 16 great people in a very short timeframe. I also hope that it would promp an UHV/UB/UU general rework for the Argentinians, I feel like they could use some love.

Forgive the silly question but do we applause now?
