Civ IV nations

[civilleader]

the nations I want to see in Civ 4

It should be set at 60 nations max
The more the civs the better. I tried to put them all around the globe yet focus on those that were important.

For American culture groups:

USA
Iroquois
Sioux/ Lakota
Mayas
Aztecs
Incas
Nazca
Inuit
Utes

For West European culture groups:
UK
France
Spain
Portugal
Germany
Netherlands
Vikings
Sweden
Ireland (maybe)

For eastern Europe:
Russia
Poland
Austria (since they had alot of slavs)
hate to say it but I really don't want Byzantium again, they are Greeks in the location where the ottomans need to be

For Mediterranean culture groups:
Rome
Greece
Carthage
Egypt

For Neareast culture groups:

I want to see half of them.

Just Romans, Greeks, French, Germans, English, Russians, Zulu, Aztecs, Incas, Americans, Indians, Chinese, Japanese, Egyptians, Babylonians/Persians, and that's it.

All the others are half-arse civs. I'd only add the Japanese and the Incas to the original selection for Civ1

You wont ever get anywhere in this debate without a definition of "civilization", "culture" and the like. There are tons of civilizations, and civilizations within civilizations and so on. The question is: what does it take for a civilization to get into Civ?

I had already made a post about this once, but it's burried somewhere...

I think I dropped this in the wrong (but seemingly identical) thread, so here it is again:

I'd favour more civs, so long as its not just a CtP style list of names that makes your eventual choice meaningless. With this in mind, it makes it easier (relatively) to choose which civs are included: not just did they play a role in the history of civilization (because which culture hasn't?) but can you give them a specialization that has some historical importance and add to game play in a unique way. In this sense, Civ3 and its sequals have done a good job in my book.

We can't have nearly as many as CtP(2). Each civ should be distinctive like in C3. Civ traits and UU's added enormous depth to C3.

everybody in civ3+ptw+conquests should carry over.
