I'm pondering an industrial era Europe scenario (probably trite, but the time is a favorite of mine), but the 7 civilizations limit is a serious hinderance. I had planned including Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Austria-Hungary, and Neutrals... but that excludes Spain and Turkey. I could put Spain in with the Neutrals, but Turkey is a more important player in the eventual First World War. I don't like the idea of replacing the Neutrals with barbarians either (England went to war with Germany when she marched into Belgium, afterall. And Spain remained neutral). Or combining Germany and Austria into one civ (I doubt the Reich would have survived with all of those pesky Balkan nationalists, not to mention it nearly doubles Germany's size).
Yeah, so I'm probably going to make a sacrifice somewhere.
