Though words of Aztec, Mayan, or ancient Malian might still exist I don't think they can fully convey the full meaning of phrases such as "My words are backed with nuclear weapons".

"We are reducing all the complexity of billions of people over 6000 years into a Civ box. Let me say: That's not only a PkZip effort....it's a real 'picture to Jpeg heavy loss in translation' kind of thing."

"All your base" is the classic quote, I don't remember seeing that quite in SMAC though
This space is empty... or is it?Comment

They'll just use modern Nahuatl, some modern Maya language, and modern Mandé (or whatever the Mali language is called), one assumes. Not really different from having the English speaking Mod Eng in the ancient age.Originally posted by Vince278

More interesting is what they're gonna do for the Babylonians - Akkadian is extinct since a couple millennia.Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

I have a strong suspicion that for the civs the developers have no idea how their language is supposed to sound (or couldn't find anyone to voicework for them) we'll be hearing a lot of "firaxlish" sounds.

Now, I hope that someone mods a "The Sims 1" Civ, with units that say, "Tier ma! Mampus mampus." And "Acidima? Burghwati."EsquireComment

ARBEIT!I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.
