I'm a little surprised we didn't get Alexander again for Greece.
All confirmed leaders of Civ 6 so far
Not a bad line up actually. Based Phillip II for Spain. Barbarossa is based. Honestly, these are all mostly ok to great choices. Tomyris not so much, mostly because she is a totally mythical character. I dispute Catherine de Medici being leader of France, but she was ok. Would have preferred Louis IX or Charlemange.
Good line up. Too bad the designs are a .sfm porn repellent.
Boudicca or riot
Whew, glad they kept Gandhi.
>wanting my stronk womyn who got fucked up worse than anyone in history after killing civilians
Kek
I think they're going for leaders they haven't used in previous games (excepting Gandhi, who's the face of the series, and Pedro II and Montezuma, whose countries have no one else usable). Boudicca showed up in Civ 5, so the Celts would need a new person.
Show me Sweden leader
>de medici
Aren't they an italian family? Wheres muh charlemagne
The way the Chinese leader is portrayed is racist as fuck. I cant believe they are getting away with using such a blatant racist images.
It's like the shittiest game, who cares?
By that reasoning you are all Mongols.
By the time mongols came into prominance finland was already inhabitet by finnish tribes
Cleopatra was a Macedonian Greek, not an ambiguously colored mulatto like they have her here
Celts could easily have veroxingeton or however you say it.
Missing a few Civs I'd like to have in there (Celts, Mongols, Koreans, etc.) but otherwise I'm pretty happy with this list. I thought this new game was going to be a PC fuckfest but I'm pleasantly surprised.
Have they released minimum specs yet? I'm worried I won't be able to run it.
It's theorized that Catherine de Medici was the de facto ruler of France during the reign of her sons, or at least heavily involved in the politics of the era. She was actually a really cool, cut-throat lady if historians are to be believed. Still Louis IX or Charlemange would have been preferred but oh well
Properly cucked with feminism, I see. Perikles, Greece, who the fuck made this? Cleopatra, Egypt, lol. I never liked civ anyway. Shit series.
Norway is in the vanilla civ 6, no Sweden.
>one unit per tile
>one improvement per tile
>awful religion system
>hideous borders
>smartphone game graphics
What else did they fuck up or keep from 5 that sucked? Will 3 city empires still be the easiest to win with?
>Not having Julius Caesar
Why?
Have you seen the graphics son? Unless you're running a complete toaster laptop you'll be good
Honestly its probably gonna be easier to run than 5
if they have turkey in this game and exclude armenia again im gonna throw a sjw fit
stop posting this shit, we dont give a shit
Not to mention she once again gets treated as an important ruler of a nation just because of name recognition. Bitch was the caretaker mascot of Egypt's lowest point of power and independence, centuries past their prime. Managed with single-handed effort to obliterate what teeny tiny shreds of sovereignty "her nation" had left. Anybody of the Ptolemaic era is a shitty choice as representative of ancient Egypt, but she's the worst. But she's a celebrity, no skills but the station of her birth and the ability to fuck more powerful famous people to be a parasite on.
Really though, Scythia confirmed but not Romans,
Fuck off, you make this thread every god damned week.
Roger II When?
Kingdom of Sicily When?
>literally getting the cuck king who drowned while he was trying to reach the holy land
JUST
Paradox Map Painters are superior to the CIV series
Nigga, can you honestly expect the Plebs to be able to separate Athens proper from Greece? It's a video game, and is hitting the LCD. Other than Cleopatra and Tomyris the game is hardly cucked
France always does best under Italians
Julius Caesar
Napoleon
Etc.
Barbarossa was pretty based, terrible luck at crossing a river not withstanding
great, only 2-3 more years until they release all the stuff that should have been in the game in the first place lads
>2 Examples
>Always
Btw, wasnt that crazy bitch the one who started killing protestants and shit?
Why else?
Don't remind me...
>Rome not confirmed
>Barbarosa when there are so many better germans to choose like Fredrick, Bismark, or Hitler
>Kongo even on the list
Other than that it's fine I guess
Yeah, I had checked them out while I was down in Brazil, and that was 4 months ago.
Looking at them now they look like a fucking mobile game. I would just hate to drop $60 on a game that may not even work well for me.
> Killing Protestants
> Implying it's bad
t. Protestant
>go for an alternate Japanese shogun
>don't pick Takeda Shingen or Uesugi Kenshin
Killing pritestants was France's modus operandi
Pericles for Greece is the greatest thing to ever happen in Civilization. I've grown sick and fucking tired of Alexander every damn time.
Civ 4 > any Paradox game 2bh
>No Franz Joseph
Fuck you Sid Meier
>pick up pacifist civilization
>get nuked by Gandhi
Julius Caesar and Marc Antony penetrated that greek ass like it was the ides of march
That counts for something
A coding error in Civ 1 caused ghandi to have maximum aggression
The devs thought it was hilarious and kept it for every other civ game since.
Like the US always does best under Dutch
>Teddy
>FDR
(please don't bring up Van Buren)
Celts should get Uther Pendragon
>FDR
>Not a tyranical socialist asshole
Toothpaste please
I swear to God if they set Byzantine leader as Justinian or Theodora I'm going to be mad. Give it to Heraclius or Basil II for once, Please. Rome should be Constantine if they want to be hipsters about Alexander and Greece(and want to push religion)
Also Teddy again?
I wanna see Jefferson. Only president to double the size of the country and launched our first foreign war.
Why would you want a British leader? You are aware your 'celts' are not related to English Celts like myself, are you not?
I am 79% sure Pedro II has the wrong hair colour, and depending of his age in the game his beard is wrong as well.
That's...not a bad idea actually
I'd like to see Brian Boru.
Haven't they already done Shi Huangdi? There's a lot of other interesting figures they could have chosen from.
Gustavus Aldophus the second
Delian League>>>>>>>>>>>Macedonian posers
WHERE ARE THE ROMANS
He was a gaul not a celt
Also Caesar t-bagged his corpse after strangling him with his bare hands
boudicca is my waifu though
...
pay debnts
Teddy is new to Civ.
FDR was in 4.
I believe that they should add Eleutherios Venizelos as leader of Greece, he was the most based leader we ever had and doubled the country's territory. Pericles was the leader of the Athenian Republic and de factories leader of the Delian League, not Greece as a whole.
WE
>Gandhi is pitch dark
>Montezuma and Cleopatra are barely even tanned
what did they mean by this Sup Forums?
De facto, stupid autocorrect
WUZ
Let's be real here Caesar is a meme choice. Augustus, Hadrian, Trajan, Diocletian and Marcus Aurelius were all better.
I mean shit even in the Republican period I'd rank Scipio Africanus and Gaius Marius as ahead of Caesar
Well Alexander lead Greece last time and he was Macedonian. So it's not like historical accuracy is top of their list.
>One UPT sucked
Yeah, I sure loved flinging stacks of doom at each other in Civ IV. Real great, highly tactical.
Nearly everyone in the Civ community agrees with one UPT being much better than deathstacks of IV and earlier.
This is D.Pedro II not that drunken dwarf looking fag civ 6 is using
Well at least Alexander managed to unite the greek city States behind one banner, so he can be considered a leader of Greece as a whole. Pericles on the other hand...
How do you figure? Caesar conquered more than any of them and was the one that transitioned it into an empire. Only Augustus compares.
See No idea whats up with Civ 6 Pedro
Cleo has got less kangzy rather than more, that's certainly a surprise
True, but I remember reading somewhere that there was also going to be a Spartan alternate leader in the game as well.
Yea I sure do love playing a sliding puzzle game for 5 minutes every time I want to move my army. It also makes perfect sense that my army has to take up an area the size of a small continent and flanking maneuvers take hundreds of years.
Not to mention stacks were already easily countered by collateral damage.
Will Civ 6 play on my Surface Pro 3 or is it another poorly optimized mess of unnecessary 3D graphics.
I'd have picked Louis the XIV for France myself.
>dat Vendel helm on Hardrada
Why isn't Obama leader of the US?! This game should celebrate his reign which has been one of the best in U.S. history!
Real talk here though, fucking Scythia confirmed but not Rome or Persia?
Also they should drop Darius and Cyrus for Persia and replace him with Nader Shah, he invaded India and sacked Delhi.
And Cleopatra looks like a fucking mutt and OF COURSE doesn't have Ptolemaic clothes on. Why don't they just choose Nefertiti or any other classical Egyptian female ruler who actually DID STUFF?
Pericles is okay because the normies would never know what an Athens is, Harald Hardrada is okay, Frederick Barbarossa is acceptable at most(they still could've had a better leader like Charlemagne or hell even Herman the German), the Asian leaders are okay(Holy shit Shi Huang looks hilarious), Mvemba a Nzigga is okay because there were African civilizations in history(watch him be the best in the game), the American leaders are fine(Why no Jorge Rafael Videla though), and the rest of Europe is fine.
The game is still going to be shit based off of the gameplay trailers but at least the leaders are semi-decent.
why no hitler? no pol pot? no stalin? no mao?
Probably Agesilaus or Leonidas.
Caesar was based don't get me wrong but he took a lot of lands vs. an enemy that was collapsing from within he had no real opposition. All the others achieved real foreign or domestic coups.
Again I'm not knocking Caesar just that he's about a meme choice as Cleopatra is for Egypt (seriously why not Ramesses II again? The guy was "The Great" for a reason)
The usual condition for inclusion is that the leader has to have 'advanced' the civilisation in some way, not merely be a notable historical figure. Hitler destroyed Germany, so he's out.
>dying aged 68
he was just old. Probably had a stroke and died. Nobody knows what exactly happened, but given the fact he was old his body probably collapsed due the heat, lack of water & age.
I hope you don't seriously believe that the Kaiser, always surrounded by guards could simply drown because he is stupid and nobody would notice.
Gauls are celts you twit.
t. Frederick Barbarossa
>Japan
why not Nobunaga or Tokugawa? instead its some Hojo guy I've never heard of
>4x games
>overly cartoony disney shit
why
V was the perfect level of cartoony
>(((Games)))
Budget, most likely
Yeah but by its title, "civilization" would concerns itself with memorable thriving cultures. Just because you guys shit on the same earth as plato doesnt mean youre greek
Nobody ever remembers Hideyoshi.
I-I remember...
Idunno man, not only did he beat his foreign enemies but also the Republic itself. Those other leaders had the advantage of building off of a base of stability Caesar/Augustus created. I agree that other emperors deserve some love just for the sake of variety though.
>we want the Clash of the Clans audience
