Why didn't it ship with scenarios?
Because those can be released as DLC later for $$.

Why doesn't Civ V come with more scenarios?

Civ V is the first Civ that I've regularly played scenarios in. I played a few in Civ II, but never really enjoyed them. I guess at the time they were above my play skill.
I much prefer to have more tunable random maps.
I also suspect there will be a Scenario expansion, but how is that different to any other expansion anyway? They were just more stuff for more money.

Yeah, then why so expensive? If you do the math it clearly shows that each civ should cost at most $2.77 and that doesn't include everything else the game came with.
They may be small packages but it still costs money to print the discs they come on.

Oh wait.
My favorate scenario prepackaged in a Civ game was World War 1979, which put you in a fictional world war occuring after the fundamentalist uprising in Iran. Civ II had some great scenarios packed with it; and the easiest to use scenario editor, I've found.
While I have found the scenario editors have become more powerful, they have become increasingly harder to use

I think the better question is why was civ 5 released with out proper ai, balance, and with a momory leak that made turns take forever.

Cman: I think the better question is why people who think that are on here.

But back on topic. I would really love a Mediterranean scenario taking place around 500 BC. You could be Carthage, Phonecia, or Greece. You would have to crush the other civs by 300 BC, but there are less (1-2) years per turn.

as many others have stated I have as much right to be here as anyone else, I have been a civ fan since civ 3. Just because I have a different opinion that yours does not mean I dont have a right to be on this board.

Don't question Cman. He'll respond to any question with an answer and a jab at Civilization 5, even if the question has nothing to do with it.
On another note, the reason CivV didn't come with many scenario is because A.) Players can make their own, B.) Random map generation and C.) DLC. The DLC scenarios are actually pretty good.

feel free to show me where I took a jab at civ 5 in the previous post.
I see no jab.

You didn't. Sadly, I forgot my sarcasm picture. (Because I've seen two or three different posts today saying that all you do is bash CivV in all your posts so I was joking about it.)
oh well never mind then, good joke im just so used to being attacked on here.
