    There was no Roman or Greek race in 4000BC either. They were all barbarian groups that only found "civilization" a few thousand years later.

    The entire idea of Civilization is suspension of belief, its a game of fun, not a real world modeling of actual civilizations. So pick the great nations or empires, use them as your civs, even in 4000BC and the hell with actual real world history. Half the fun is having Alexander the Great get nuked by Gandhi in 1800 (at higher difficulties).

      Is it really necessary to quote a whole page long thread to issue a 2 sentence reply?

      And where was Spain when the pyramids were built? and france? and germany?
      The Eurasian and African continents were heavily populated with tribal level civilisations during the BC period. All areas you mention managed to inflict at least one serious defeat upon the Roman empire.

      I hope you can recognise that this is one valid point of view
      clearly not in your case....

        There is simply no way Firaxis will be deleting any civ, not with all the work they've done with civ-specific units and bonuses (boni ), so why worry about it?

            It's true that they've cut civs, but the ones they have chosen are already set in stone. It's pointless to talk about removing civs. I've seen (and unfortunately participated in) similar threads that have led to people attacking another's country. This thread could explode into a flame war.....

                The way I got it is that there are going to be the same number of civs (Was it 21? 3 Civs per color, 7 colors) but there are now 16 Civs playing instead of 7 plus the barbarians. So I dont think any are getting the boot... infact, I believe we'll probably get more. Sorry if others have said this... I got to the end of the first page without reading anymore before posting this....

                    Still unclear, but one of the typically cryptic Firaxis posts here alluded to more then 7 or 8 simultaneous civs. Which means hopefully 16. Not confrimed, just kind of alluded to. Also, the 16 civs in hasn't been confirmed either, just mentioned in several previews, strength in numbers, but still no Firaxis confirmation.

                      Oh yeah, why it was cryptic, the Firaxis guy (forget who) reiterated that everything was still being tested and balanced, so nothing was set in stone to even confirm.

                          whats a tribal level civilization?

                          and what does activity against the roman empire have to do with the situation in 4000BC?

                            Please re-read my post. It was not a 2 sentence reply.

                                OK, as long as you weren't a rigger. Just kidding.

                                I was on the Mare Island "mud puppy": USS Guitarro SSN665. I was on her from 90-92. Which included the decomissioning. I was the MPA.
