futzing around with leader portraits or the palace seem like obvious cosmetic dlc they could do

The backgrounds in Civ 5 were beautiful, but I won't miss them. In fact, I would be fine with just the leader's animated face on the lower right of the screen running their mouth while I take care of business on the map.

Seems like the continents are determined by stuff like mountain ranges and natural features? Pretty cool. E: New city siege mechanic means cities can't heal if you surround the city Jump King fucked around with this message at 19:19 on Aug 18, 2016 |

whoa if you surround an enemy city from all six hexes the city won't be able to heal per turn e: all the units have to be the same civ and mountains are always considered blocked so you can't cheat this by settling next to a mountain Brother Entropy fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Aug 18, 2016 |

I guess Pokrovka is the Scythian capital? I doubt that's how it was called at the time

Considering they were Iranic yeah probably not. The civ team has always been pretty lazy about research on these kinds of things. e: there actually are real names they could have used for some Scythian settlements iirc too, Herodotus names them

Someone asked them on the livestream to reveal Germany's agenda as AI (which is basically anything to do with you getting cozy with City States)... But they went to Civopedia in game, and definitely just showed the names of every leader, expect a screenshot soon.

Motherfukcers just opened the civilopedia page New Leaders confirmed: Philip 2 (of Spain I assume) Gorgo (no idea, but wasn't known before) Harald Something All the portraits leader confirmed too (nzegne of congo, gilgamesh, gandhi etc...) Edit: Gorgo is the Queen of Sparta, Sparta confirmed as new civ! Kurtofan fucked around with this message at 20:01 on Aug 18, 2016 |

lmao Gorgo was a queen of Sparta. Get ready for a bunch of gamergaters mad that the civ most tied to the id of masculinity has a woman as a leader. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

I guess of all the civs to have two leaders for to start with I'm not mad it's Greece. A shame they went with two roughly contemporaneous ones rather than having like Gorgo and Agamemnon or something though

Well, that wraps up this graph. Mystery person 1 is Gorgo of Greece, Mystery Person 2 is Harald Hardrada of Norway, and Spain might get both Isabella (though she isn't in that screenshot) and Phillip II. Only question is why that makes 20 civs when the game is supposed to release with 19. E: Jadwiga isn't in the civpedia screenshot. Maybe we're not getting Poland on release after all.

I don't think that's the case - look at the scrollbar to the left of the leaders list in that screenshot. That's almost the entire list in alphabetical order.
