      Did we know this info before? I've been away for a while, and so could easily have missed it, but it looks like news to me...

              The only 'missing' face is Hannibal. Hence, Speedy's "I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of Hannibal in any of our products" reply to my question in the chat.

                    The Korean stats seem to have been switched from Sci/Com to Rel/Com. Or perhaps the other way, if the pictures are from an older release.

                      Korean UU

                      Was the cannon replacement UU already known? I hadn't heard about anyone with a vanilla bombardment unit UU. Frankly, I never use any bombard units up until artillery, and even then, sparingly. Cannon are probably the worst- they show up at exactly the wrong time to be of any use. (Running down cavalry with your cannon? Yeah right.) Using them for defense is mostly a waste, as they'll only do damage to the first certain amount of units on the stack. About the only way you could make a cannon replacement useful is giving it a move of four with multiple attacks and boosting the bombard rate until it could take off two bars per hit. That would be rather scary, actually, but it'd be a nice change from the cannon as the useless unit that even the AI is hardly ever stupid enough to build.

                        No picture of Hannibal has been seen yet. If there was, he'd be in my leaders thread.

                          Okay, I'm sending Mark and Dan a picture of Hannibal from Civ3:PTW then.

                              Well, I haven't checked a historical picture, so I can't judge the realism, but I like the Hannibal head. Thanks!

                              What a pity I usually can't see any leader smiling at me: they usually are furious at me, or annoyed at the best.
