Prediction for Next Week's Civ

[JellyDonut]

It's not going by leader. Dan himself said he put the Aztecs in as a surprise. I'm guessing abstract chronological order, i.e. ancient civs first then modern ones, not by leader or CSU, etc.

[JellyDonut]

Well, today's the day we find out. All we can do is wait. BTW, I still say Russians or Japanese.

[monkspider]

After Romans, it will be Iroquois

[KrazyHorse]

I'm guessing Iroquois too.

[monkspider]

Woo hoo! We got it Krazy.
I'm now 1 for 1 on this prediction buisness.

[SerapisIV]

It's official Iroquois

[Black Fluffy Lion]

Iroquois it is. Zulus next week I reckon...

[JellyDonut]

mumble...mumble...

NEXT week, it'll be the Russians or Japanese

[Ralf]

It will obviously be the Zulus. They are the only one left from the ancient/medieval era of CSU:s.

AFAIK (AICBW (NBL)), the ZGA was somewhere in the 19th century, around the time of SZ.

AK:
AFAIK - As Far As I Know
AICBW - Although I Could Be Wrong
NBL - Not Bloody Likely
ZGA - Zulu Golden Age
SZ - Shaka Zulu
AK - Acronym Key

When o when do I get my Germans?

I am curious to how/if Firaxis will handle the whole Hitler/Holocaust issue. I am kinda hoping they don't sidestep it. It certainly is a defining, albeit horrific, part of German history.

Well, they'll HAVE to say something on WWII, assuming the Panzer is still the German special unit, but I think they'll try to sidestep it, saying something like "During WWII, the Panzer was used by the Germans and had more blah blah than other tanks of the time....."

My hunch is you are correct. I would be pleasantly surprised, though, to see an up-front and frank mention of it. I think, by and large, the Germans of today are being remarkably forthcoming about the issue, and I see no reason to sweep it under the rug. It is perhaps the most significant event of the last century, after all. (so WEIRD saying last century when referring to WWII, wow.)

Cheers.
