RRR its Mao Zedong why wont they change that!! pinyin!!! not wades!!

I think they have pretty much the same as in civ2, at least that what it looks like so far.

And about the Iroquois, the Iroqouis at its hight had only about 1 million people making it smaller than the Incas, Aztecs, Mayans or Sioux it had no identifiably unique units, its only unique features are it had a very advanced govternment and it was the first strong alliance between several tribes. So because of that I dont think it would be a good candidate for a Pre-made Civ.

This is true, but the Iriquois were also the CIvilization closest to the Americans in power in Northern America... the Iriquois nation was the most organized and probably the largest united and coherent native american nation.

[JamesJKirk]

So do all these leader faces mean that we're losing the ability of the civs to be governed by people of either sex?

[Shadowstrike]

Mark my words.... I bet that all the classic CivI civs will be in.

[Maxxes]

Yeah the twelve civs so far were all in CIV1. So I bet The Mongols and the Babylonians are in too. Plus the one native american tribe... only one to guess about

I'll put my money on the Babylonians being in. Surely just one civ from the birthplace of civilisation would be an injustice to the history of civilisation!!

[Ralf]

Check out the bluish samurai-looking unit in THIS SCREENSHOT. Can we conclude that the Japanese are in?

They did the same with SMAC: you can customize leader name, gender etc. but you end with the same face. How silly! I chosed a female University Leader (Madame Curie, BTW) to give women their merits, but I get the same mad scientist with green/red glasses

Personally if the Celts don't get in I think it is a crime, considering we go back further than the Romans. I would like to see us Welsh get in but sadly I think they've already got enough programming to do.

I'm sure the: Celts and Spanish will get in

and i'm pretty sure that is a picture of a Mongol (Genghis Kahn perhaps)

Some official words would be nice

[Patriqvium]

The Mongols are in... check the Genghis Khan screenshot at GameSpot.

[Bereta_Eder]

I was 100% sure I needed some input though.
So, I agree with you guys it is the Mongol leader.

So, so far we know that:

GREEKS ARE IN

VIKINGS (?) (see the boat at the abovementioned ULR. Ralf is pretty sure it's a long boat. After seeing it, I think it could be a trireme as well)

Giving it a quick look, it reminds me strongly of an Viking longboat, but I cannot say that I am 100% in any way. It doesnt have any war-shields on the sides, neither the classic red-white sails. Also the prow & stern should perhaps be more sky-protruded. Ah well, we just have to wait and see...

A lot of people have said that all classic CIV I civs are in. I see this too and I agree to the proposition that this means that the Babylonians are in.
We still need hard evidence to include them in though.

Lenious, as things turn out I am very sceptical about the Celts and the Spanish. But still we have to find evidence (if there is any yet) to discover about the 2 remaining civs. I have no hard evidence for this but I'd bet my last drachma (much more subtler pronounced actually: thrahmee - th as in then) Babylonians are in.

We also need to find out which exactly the Indian tribe is.
