the Mongol DLC was free. I don't think anyone would complain if it is wrapped up in Gods and Kings too.
Will Gods and Kings include CiV DLC?

Who said anything about more free DLC? He suggested that Mongols might be included in G&K too, and I suggest that no one would care as we all got the Mongols for free.

Yeah, Denmark makes a lot of sense. I'm guessing it'll still be post-1000 AD, but they'd still be there.
Gibraltar isn't in Spanish territory, unless I am missing something. Perhaps scenario-wise though.
Thanks. Not sure how I missed that.

Well, he did say "in this case." NW can either stand for Natural Wonder or National Wonder which can be confusing sometimes.

There are a lot of duplicative abbreviations at this point. You have to figure it out from context.

Danes will fit in both as an outside invasive force as Vikings, pre-renaissance (edit). But you could also add that it was the Dane King Christian IV, that were charged by Dutch, French, English (and Danes) to lead the protestant army against the German catholic emperor and his Spain and Austrian allies in 1625. As such leading an army into European heartland during the religious wars of the reformation. His huge army took a terrible beating (wipe) and the Emperor pursued him back up into Jutland where he was forced to accept defeat but he got a very reasonable deal (kept his land, payed all his gold and luxuries).
King Christian IV did not mess with religious warfare after that but did beat the Swedes 20 years later in large scale naval battle. Where he lost an eye to an exploding cannon, set off by a swedish bullet. He had the cannon fragments retrieved from his eye worked into a piece of jewelry. In between these wars he enjoyed being Bob the builder.
Yes, but Gibraltar ought to have assisted me at least somewhat.

This is going to sound a little selfish, but I kinda hope they don't put the DLC in G&K, since I just paid $30 to get most of the DLC.

Also not trying to sound mean, but you do realize last weekend DLC were 75% off? Could have saved a good chunk

So if anyone else (besides Spain) is going to be included, it would be Denmark. As stated before, it'd make sense, since they're including Spain to use it in the Medieval Scenario. On the other hand, Denmark under Harold Bluetooth is too Viking Age / Early Middle Ages, while the Scenario seems to cover High to Late Middle Ages.
But then we have Catherine, Napoleon, Bismarck etc. Come to think of it, I guess (and wish) they're going to use only generic civs, with some nice artwork for the leader's screen (as in that 1066 Viking scenario; it was static and all but it was great).

I really don't understand why people 'support' the inclusion of Spain as a full civ (i have no problem it being scenario exclusive, i.e can't play Spain in regular games without owning the DLC) but I just can't help to feel screwed over that I paid (well, I was gifted Spain/Inca) for TWO civilization and now I'm gonna have ONE civ.
I understand that somebody said something about the decreasing cost, (with the vanilla game, with the reductions and stuff, it was on another topic, but he pretty much said it's the way market works) but this is diffrent because they're probably NOT gonna decrease the cost for the DLC.. AND the actual stuff is changed (Spain being removed)

I don't think it's support so much as indifference. If they're going to include it, even to the point as a playable civ in the scenario, they might as well just let people play as them outside the scenario. It'll make things simpler for modders, at least. I mean, what if someone wants to make a scenario with the Conquistador. Could they link to the scenario unit to use or would that be blocked?
Well, as someone who paid for them as opposed to being gifted them or getting them through the pre-order (so someone who has the most to lose), I'm mostly indifferent. I got them more than a year ago. In previous Civ expansions, I've taken advantage of the year's delay and got all the civs for free as opposed to just one. Second, you don't lose the civ. You got two civs and a scenario. Had you waited, you would have gotten one civ a year and a half later with no scenario. Just hearing Pachacuti and Isabella in game was pretty good for me and worth paying less than $4 each.
Think about it this way. With the delay, the civ cost you 22 cents a month.
I can understand that some people might be a little peeved that others get DLC that they paid for (I haven't read everything the last few days; has this actually been confirmed, or is it speculation?), but you should consider that you've received the benefit of that DLC for a while already, whilst those that get it in the expansion have not. Spain is really the least they could give whilst still giving something (given it's part of the double pack). I wonder if they'll adjust the price of the double pack DLC accordingly?

An article in French mentions that Spain will be included in addition to the 9 civs because it's in the Medieval scenario. It's through a translation, so it's difficult to figure out the contours of how it'll be included, though.

I wasn't really paying attention to Steam all last weekend, so I didn't know about the sale until it was over (again,
)

Understood, and I guess I am not really peeved, I am just a lot less concerned as to whether or not they include any previous DLC. And I hadn't taken into account that I will be getting the benefit of the DLC for a while, possibly months, before those who don't get it until G&K (if it's even included).
