Carthage first. Just out of vitriolic contempt for the man.
Then Celts. Woad to ruin indeed...

I can't believe that The Big Banana is not in the lead in voting. Stop being so ethnocentric and include the real world favorite - the guanabana!Comment

Ragnar. The Vikings just look too freakin' cool (and a tad overpowered).
Then Hannibal because the Civ4 Carthaginians seem to match my playstyle quite well with the uber lighthouse and the financial trait.

It's probably the traits again (like it was in CivIII). What are his traits and what do they do?Originally posted by Nubianmercenary

The poor showing of the Zulus here could be put down to a number of things:
1) This poll was started well before the details of the unique buildings and unit were made known.
2) Most traits weren't known but Shaka's and Hannibal's were. Aggressive/expansive has been tried but Carthage's would have been very tempting since charismatic was thought to be overpowered (it has changed since).
Beyond Hannibal, this was just a popularity contest - probably skewed by the civs relative popularity in CivIII. Putting the relatively unpopular Zulus (based on anecdotal evidence only) up against the hugely popular Vikings was never going to be kind to the Zulu.
If the poll were restarted I'd imagine they'd get a handful of extra votes for their special building. The Impi will count against them - it may be the fastest land unit in the game but it's low strength means that it won't bring anything new to the game.LandMasses Version 3 Now Available since 18/05/2008.Comment

Also, people seem to have gotten their noses out of joint because of the whole "not really a civ" argument.Originally posted by Thedrin

That aside, I plan on playing the Zulus because they're darn cool.
