You cannot a priori tell me an argument is invalid if you TL;DR me first off. You misunderstood me by thinking I was arguing with you rather than discussing. Maybe I'm right, maybe you're right. At...

My point with scenario specific civs was that either the main civ was included in both the full and scenario, albeit with some alterations, or there was a scenario only civ. So the Normans were based...

Right, anything that emphasizes their 'light' abilities.

Italy was confirmed through the achievements to be at least in the African scenario: "Discoverer - Playing as Italy in Scramble for Africa, earn the VP for finding two Natural Wonders." Scroll...

Since the Boers are a playable faction in the Scramble for Africa scenario as well, maybe their UU is the Voortrekker as either a unique settler/explorer/rifleman...

Furthermore on the civfanatics forum there seems to be a similar sentiment that if Italy is included it's UU would be the Bersaglieri or Alpni.

For the African scenario:

Belgium's unique unit...

They are a famous light infantry unit, who during parades run while playing their music. I'd imagine them having a terrain movement advantage similar to the minuteman or a built in promotion that...

I say this also because if Italy is facing the Mehal Sefari, they'd need a counter unit. If this new unit has 34 health, it would be a rifleman replacement.

Just a guess here, but could this new industrial unit be say the Bersaglieri if Italy is a civ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bersaglieri

I'd imagine their use in a Scramble for Africa scenario,...

So as a Civ player, I have had both success and upsets, and try to incorporate new ideas into my gameplay. I am excited for the boost the mid to late game will receive with Brave New World, and will...

So I'd like to start off by saying how excited I am for Brave New World. The features are something I think we can all look forward to, and will hopefully bring new options to the game. Talk of trade...

So I use religion to boost many things, especially production and growth. Usually I choose from both pantheon and religion beliefs to help me with this. But I wanted to know if there was an ideal...

There are so many changes, it's hard to keep up. I was thrown off by having to earn republic before collective rule, or small things like golden ages giving a culture boost. Even of we have to change...

It's been a year and it seems this idea is now a reality with Gods and Kings! I haven't played that long, nor as Persia post-expansion, but no doubt this will buff tall empire gameplay and reward...

I think you'll get just Spain, sans new world wonders and the Inca.

I said it may replace an economic building: "My bets go to either new economic or new counter spying replacement.". So far it seems that espionage buildings will be unlocked with mid game economic...

Well I think saying something like 'I know exactly what _ is' would be inappropriate, because obviously I don't. But what I am doing is making an educated guess and trying to narrow down choices. I...

Hey I think I figured out what the Coffee house replaces! If you watch the new video (cultivate and expand) at the 3:34 mark, you see that with electricity comes both the stock exchange and police...

I'm having a problem with the Honor Tree. Killing barbarians doesn't add to my overall culture. Is anyone else experiencing this?

After I unlock the Honor Tree, I don't receive the culture from killed barbarians. I still see the +6 in purple floating after the gained XP is shown, but the culture tab on the top remains static,...

Any guess on what the Coffee House replaces? A unique bank? If Persia has a Satrap's Court instead, I don't think it's too much of a stretch to imagine the Austrians having a Coffee House...

When I heard diplomacy is making a large overhaul, including when dealing with war, I got excited. I thought now I could fight wars on my terms, and do it diligently. The first thing I wondered was...

Here's the thing I think many are forgetting. If Sweden is the new Greece, then than that means you can expect Swedish agression starting in the early game, making declarations of friendship less...

I can't seems to remember either ha.

I think I'm actually better prepared than I realize. Even now I place emphasis on a strong modern navy, and generally place artillery on the high ground of my...

When I play Civ, I have a rule. Always always always place a city on water. That could be a lake, river, or the sea, but it must be. The reasons I feel are obvious. You can build gardens, build naval...
