Your nation/leader choice for your 1st Civ4 game and why?

[Nachos]

napoleon because he is napoleon

 

[josephstalin]

FDR (traits) or Peter the great (russia).

 

[civaddict098]

Ghandi, the worker sounds real powerful and industrius and spirtual seems to fit my gameplay style

 

[UnitQ]

Washington, America

 

[Speed Of Sound]

FDR (Americans) because I have always admired the great works of Pres. Roosevelt.

 

[Daniel Jackson]

Peter the Great, Russia.

Why? It's Russia, and I feel Peter deserved to be the leader whereas Catherine didn't, although she does have a better looking leaderhead.

 

[Belboz]

Greece and Alexander, because I've started with the Greeks in every other version of Civ, though I'm tempted to start with America and Roosevelt, because Roosevelt is one of my favorite presidents.

 

[Novaya Havoc]

It's all about the Catherine, baby.

 

[Drvilson]

I'll go Japanese or Arabs on the world map (since civ 1 ive always started on the world map, makes me feel more important.)

 

[AluminumKnight]

Isabella's Spain because the traits fit my style of play the best, and because the conquistador has to be better than it was in civ3... I'll definitely play a random map

 

[Tarhikak]

Random for me. I like to try out a variety of Leaders before settling in to favorites. Favorites..which I have a hard time choosing...so I usually end up doing random anyways!

If the option to name your own Civ was around, I'd probably choose that on my second game.

 

[modern armor]

Napolean of the French!! Great historic leader!

 

[anjinsan1966]

Bismark of the Germans,favours representation and is expansive and industrious.

 

[BeefBayford]

Otto for me too, never used Germans on Civ3 and I like the sound of expansive/industrious.

 

[Dicanio3]

I'll be flying the flag of St George with Elizabeth as my leader

 

[Panda]

Random, and most likely on Settler dificuilty to get a hang of the game.

 

[Huxley Hobbes]

FDR, Elizabeth, or possibly Catherine are the ones I'm thinking of right now. Not for any specific traits, just because I like them all, and I like the civs as well.

 

[Chekov]

As I am German I will play with Bismark

 

[Colonel_Volgin]

The Arabs for sure with Saladin

2) the Germans Under Bismark

3) the Russians under Peter

4) Mali Under Mansa musa

 

[VasiaPupkin]

Russia + Petr
