19. Scandinavia

I say we should play with a combination of traits we never had before, for the sake of renewing the challenge.
Since we have played with the Egyptians (religious industrious), and with the Scandinavians (militaristic expansionist in PtW), the remaining traits are:
- scientific
- commercial
- seafaring
- agricultural

So, to me, the choice boils down to these Civs:
- Greece
- Korea
- Byzantium
- Sumeria
- England
- Iroquois
- Netherlands

As we'll play a pangaea map, we should as well forget the seafaring Civs. That's why I suggest we play Iroquois, so that we can take advantage of the pangaea, and have a huge yet productive landmass at our bidding. it will delight our feudal lords if we go the feudalism course, and it will bring the joy of a new trait to us all

The only drawback of the Iroquois is their early military Golden Age. Sadly, the only other Civ that has useful unused traits, and a medieval GA is Korea, with their bad UU.

I would like Byzantium or the Netherlands.

Spiffor, if you do not change your vote to Greece, you will be thrown out of the party.

For the 8th time?

[Harovan]

England sounds like a good choice, and is awesome for roleplaying. They sucked up to PtW, but their new traits suit well.

[MrWhereItsAt]

Korea or England do sound nice.

For the moment however Korea works with its strange UU. Plus I have never played as them.

OK, Ghengis has voted for England

[BigFurryMonster]

30. Incas please.

I like the 'new' trait of agricultural. Plus, expansionist will come in handy on the Pangea map.
