Which Civs would you include in Civ6?

[DudewiththeFood]

A modern civ again like Brazil but Canada, Australia or Argentina. I think the first 2 are as deserving as Brazil while I prefer Argentina and it fits better geographically than Canada.

That the Church was rich, does not mean that the state / king and the people were too.

Actually, if the Church was so rich, it is quite likely that the king and / or the people were not.

I was referring to the churches in Ouro Preto (in Brazil), not the ones in Portugal, and the Portuguese Crown and Nobility were extremely rich during this time (it was their gold that built the cathedral, not that of the Catholic church). Anyway, if we're talking about how rich peasants were, we'd be looking at something ridiculous like Magdeburg being a civ.

I suggest the nation of Nukehavistan should be in the next Civ game or expansion pack.

I suggest the nation of Nukehavistan should be in the next Civ game or expansion pack.

Very well, I shall add it to the list.

One of these civs is a regional hegemon. Another is under the thumb of the regional hegemon. The third is Australia.

 

[QuoVadisNation]

You forgot Poland!

I've just managed to find their national anthem:

BTW - if they add the United States, they should also add the Separated States (the SS).

Do you agree?

Rather than saying what I'd like to see, let me tell you what I'd like to NOT see as civs in the next installment:

• Holy Roman Empire (Has more similarities with EU than with sovereign nations)
• Italy (I don't like the idea of ancient Rome and renaissance Rome spawning parallel to each other)
• Vikings (Not at all representative of Scandinavia, the way Firaxis did it in Civ5 was perfect)
• India (to lump together all these different cultural and political entities into one civ is a sin I cannot forgive)
• China (See India. Though China has in comparison, had a more unitary rule throughout history, so naming it Han China would make me a bit happier)
• The Zulus (Mutapa deserve that spot so much more)
• The Huns (They didn't have as much of a political entity as the Mongols did)
• Lumping all native American tribes into one Civ is another no-no.
• Polynesia (Like with India, it's better if it was split into Hawaii, Samoa, the Maoris etc)
• Greece (Rename Alexander the Great's reign to Macedon, and cont the Greek city-states as, well, city-states)
• Modern Israel (What would the inclusion of this civ imply, if other more important or interesting civs were excluded because of this?)
• Confederates, Nazis, Soviets etc. (NO.)
• Africa (Big. Fakkakkakkakkakking. NOOOOOOOOO.)

Hope I got that out of the way.

I agree with most of your list except for the HRE part. Historically you have a point about the HRE, but the thing is, I really, really hate Germany's UU (the Pikeman one) and wish it was replaced with another WW2 era unit, plus one more). That, or just give them a Unique building. Or if you absolutely MUST include their pikeman replacement, make them not suck. Please?

edit: What I'm saying is give the HRE that UU so Germany doesn't have to have it. That, or remove that UU from the game entirely. Personally I think giving Germany a UA of some sort of bonus exclusively in the industrial era + two UU's from that era would be best. The Panzer should actually not necessarily be one of them though, IMO. Russia's tank is actually rated by military experts to be better than the Panzer, in both quality and quantity. The reason Germany did so well in the beginning of the war was because the allies were unprepared, plus their original opponents such as Poland were simply far behind. But this is not really the case for say, England, Russia, America, or even France. The fact of the matter is it was far more than a technological improvement that made them stand toe-to-toe with the foes I just described for such a while despite being horribly ripped-off on a per capita basis. The reason for this is Germany has something of a 'military tradition' in the same way the American south did in the civil war as opposed to their northern counterparts.

Perhaps they could have one UU instead of the Panzer (a U-boat submarine would be my personal choice), and the other UU is just a great general, except it only exists while Germany is in the industrial era (meaning once they pass the industrial era they stop producing those type of great generals, and they can't get them until that era). Personally I think a 20% attack boost would be nice.

Perhaps their UA could be called 'blitzkreig' (probably spelled incorrectly), which means during the industrial era (and *only* during the industrial era), they get a temporary power boost during the first 10 turns they make a DOW on an opponent.

I'm sure dividing India into anything not ruled by Gandhi is essentially impossible. The memetic marketing material is too strong.

Moderator Action: The OP of the thread has been permanently banned as a double login & troll account. Thank you all for not taking the bait.

That being said, this thread seems fairly spammy and more about history than anything else. We have a sticky thread in I&S for suggestions of civs that you want to see in Civ5 that aren't in it yet, and you're welcome to have another thread for civs that should be in Civ6. But one with a non-troll OP would be appropriate. Thread closed.
