I want Staling back

[kolpo]

One of the things I really loved in civ1 was Staling, he was really a complet bastard who I loved to fight against, especial when he was stronger as me. So please bring Staling back and give him again a bastard like personality.

Viva Staling ! Viva Staling ! (just joking )

[Stefu]

Actually, I think that if the form "Staling" had been used instead of "Stalin", I think he would have never achieved the high position in Soviet Union that he did.

He wasn't named Stalin for reall, he jsut took that name (loosely translated meaning; superman/man of steel, or atleast so I've heard)

Born 'Iosif Djugashvili' if I'm not much mistaken. Interestingly, he worked as a bank robber in Odessa, whilst still in the lower echelons of the Bolshevik movement.

Swift anecdote: At work (gardening), we have a very plucky robin who chases around after us for worms when we've been digging, and has been named 'Christopher' after Christopher Robin, you see?

That got me thinking...I'd like to adopt a Starling, and name it Josef...

As lease we have a ball park number of people kill by Hitler.. Josif Stalin on the other hand we will never know. I have heard some say over the years it may be close to what Hitler did or even more.

Stalin's body-count? Well into the twenties of millions...Not including the strategic bungles he made during World War Two (Military purges not included). He was a REAL bastard. Hitler didn't even make it into the tens of millions, the second-rate loser. Mao Tse Tung...now he really knew his stuff...

[DarkCloud]

Stalin was in civ II...

Acutally the three worst civs for backstabbing were
the
Russians
Zulus
Mongols

so I could say he was fairly evil in the game,

[wittlich]

I concur, I've been back stabbed a number of times by the Russian AI in Civ2!

Marx was really not the leader type, he spent his entire life drinking and living of others money (mostly Engel's money)...
