National Leaders

[AntiStupid]

All this discussion about who you want to see as a leader and Im overhere wondering why we cant have a civ game with multiple leader choices per civilization.
3,4,5 even leaders we can choose from. Differing time periods, with their set pros and cons, perks.
Ancient and old nations/civs being limitied to one or 2 leaders is terrible imho.

Civ VI has multiple leaders for civs.

One thing I'd like to see is leader appearance/background change according to historical era - Caesar in a suit and Washington in a toga or whatever. It's certainly technically doable - leader portraits changed according to influences in Civ:BE.

Yeah. That was a neat feature in Civ III, but they started getting too fancy with leader screens. Now that they simplified the backgrounds, we can get multiple leaders again. Since the leaders are full bodied - or at least 3/4 - it would take quite a bit of work to give every leader and alternate leader era specific clothing. It's doable, but i wouldn't hold my breath.

Still, it would give them something to do for the final expansion.

Forget the leaders changing their clothes, they should bring back the Civ 2 advisors.

+1 to changing backgrounds. The watercolor stills DO look nice, but, they're clearly something a professional artist could whip up in just a few hours...at most...from scratch.

If we have different leaders for civs, someone will make a Hitler mod. You all know it.

Course it will. Civ V has a Hitler mod. Xcom 2 has a Hitler mod. Skyrim has a Hitler mod. Everything has a Hitler mod.

Actually I might be making ♥♥♥♥ up (aside from the Civ V mod that's a thing) but I don't feel very comfortable searching for hitler mods.

Still, this is very much a given.


I do hope the extra leaders will be free or cheap. To this day I find most the smaller DLC's for Civ V to be a tad on the expensive side for what they offer, but at least those could be justified by how incredibly much work was put into every single leader scene. Not anymore with the new style, I say.

There's sweet irony in this. He pursued a reich that would last 1,000 years, every city with his statue, every school with his picture.

What he got instead is a version of every meme, every mock-mod in videogames and a very likely presence in every idiotic argument, mostly thanks to "reductio ad Hitlerum". Rather than be a subject of a state cult, he ended up as "dindu Adolf". Given how deadly serious his whole regime was this is the perfect example of History trolling like a pro.

Is that a typo? I know Civ IV does, but there's nothing confirmed of that sort of Civ VI, is there?

How much you wanna bet that Valve will delete it from the workshop, and maybe even CivFanatics will too? Gonna have to hunt it down...

the Hitler mod for Civ V has'nt been taked down,or atleast to my knowledge. Not that i would use it or anything...it's bad enough that i had to deal with Bismark's massive AF army of galleons,Pikemen,and(for some stupid arse reason) workers.
