The Potato King.

Shaka.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

ROOSEVELT.

CYRUS.

I could have done without Cleopatra, but whatever. ROOSEVELT.

Eww, "Catherine" for Russia. Bad woman. The clear pick was Ivan IV, a true bloodthirtsty, Russian ruler, not some fat German woman.

^True.

Firaxis is obsessed with Catherine for some reason. That woman has been representing Russia in almost every game.

I understand they don't want to use Stalin, but there's other recognizable Russian leaders they could pick.

I'm just so happy, though. If this is all true, then we have the Potato King, The Zulu warlord, The man who built a castle in one night, the biggest bad-ass this millennium, and the man who was considered by God and the Jews as a messiah. Holy Hell.

I like the addition of Saladin, but his claim to fame is sooooo retarded. The 3rd Crusade, a war that has shaped much today's stories and myths like Saladin, Good King Richard, John the Phony King and Robin Hood, started over a captured caravan.

They kept my man Alexander, that's good (even though he's technically not Greek).

Throw Poland in there? Okay, cool! Poland kicked ass, once.

Throw in a Native American people? Okay, I guess. I don't know what was wrong with Hiawatha and the Iroquois, but the Sioux are okay.

The Celts, why not? They were cool before they got their shit kicked.

I wish they'd put Norway in, with Harald Hardrada as leader.

Stalin would boost sales, in Russia at least.

Gorbachev or Putin would be my pick

Throw Poland in there? Okay, cool! Poland kicked ass, once.

Only country to ever take the Russian capital borough, it's pretty good.

^EXACTLY! The Polish-Muscovite War! Moscow was captured outright. And since Poland was such a nice country, they gave it right back.

Tojo would have been great for Japan too



I'm getting soooo tired of Elizabeth for Britain.

Why Hideyoshi for Japan?
Tokugawa would probably have been better, but whatever.
They should just do the 3 unifiers, and let you select(tokugawa, Nobunaga, and Hideyoshi)

Tokugawa might be the better pick, but I know the Japanese think of him as especially significant, so maybe that's why. Either way, it's better than Nobunaga.

Also, it might be because they had Tokugawa in Civ IV, and Nobunaga in Civ V.

For Russia, I would take Ivan III over Ivan IV, but both over Catherine. However, Peter I ftw.

Eww, the worst one of them all, Pötr the Backstabber. Everything went to crap in 1696.

Literally anyone but Catherine and Stalin. Hell, I wouldn't mind Putin, for all it's worth.

Pötr I ruined Russia, he should be the last in line.

Holodomor. No, thank you.

Bloodthirsty, thank you.

Stalin is a top candidate, along with Hitler, with Germany. Bloodthirsty tyrions.
