CIV of the week-Babylonians!
in case anyones wondering about the Babylonians strengths ill put them right here so we may discuss what we beleive they will be good at. If your someone who dosen't like unique civs then this thread probably wont bennefit you, but i think it'll be interesting anyway.
the babs (as i will now call them to keep my hand from cramping up) are a scientific and religous civ, this meens that-
they get a Free science tech at the begining of each era, this will give them a big bonus in tech, they also get science improvements at a lower cost, i imagine some more peaceful players will be having some fun going to AC MUCH sooner than usual.
them starting with bronze working will also help defend your citys from the unwashed hordes!
they also start with ceremonial burial, witch puts them on the new road (according to screenshots) to monarchy, a good goverment, they will have no trouble getting into the new goverment withNO anarchy, they will also have much more culture and happiness due to lowered production costs for religius improvements.
There unique unit, the Bowman is very promissing early on with these stats
Attack-2, defence-1, Movement-2 , it looks like they will be able to scout easier, and get a good front up to the enemy in no time.
the babs will most likely be used by people who like science, and culture in there strategy, thou there weopon is fast, its really best used to chase early invaders away, and with that comes a early bost in trade beouse they get there Golden Age early, just another boost to what looks like a scientific powerhouse.

) and you your big rival the whole game is the Romans (militariastic & industrious). They continue to pick on you the whole game by attacking you and several other devious things. You've always been ahead of them scientificly but you've lacked a great military, in which something the Romans do have. Finally when you become so far ahead of them scientificly it won't even matter about the size of the armies because you will be able to crush their knights with your tanks. I think this is such a great feature of the game. One of my favorite parts in fact and I hate RTS style games so I'm really surprised I like it. Now lets just be able to randomize the civ abilities and civ-specific units while being able to do editing to the abilities and this would be marvelous!
