why does the leader have the triforce on him
>>344262480
That's the clan symbol of the Hojo broseph.
>>344261989
He looks like leatherman from the thumbnail
>>344262480
>He didn't play Sengoku Rance
I hate normies.
>>344262235
The original Divine Wind was the typhoon that helped the Japanese (lead by Hojo Tokimune) push back the Mongol invasions. I like this one better since it's related to the leader.
>>344261989
Once again the Japanese seem strong, but at least they don't have that stupid fucking Bushido Code again.
Holy shit.
>>344262529
Why is the clan symbol of the Hojo a Triforce? Do they have Hyrulian blood?
>>344262480
He's Zelda
>>344262639
Bushido is the name of Tokimune's A.I. Leader Agenda - he likes Civs that have a strong military but only if they also have a strong faith and/or culture, too.
>>344262012
>unique ability Meiji Restoration
>not just having Meiji as your leader
Do the Nips hate him or something? Japan's sudden industrialisation in the 19th century is pretty crazy. I don't think any country has gone from being a backwards feudal kingdom, to a modern industrial state as quickly as Japan. Apart from you know, apart from areas that get colonised.
>>344261989
Oh hey, one of the least impressive Shoguns in all of history.
Come the fuck on, at least give us someone exciting or maybe even did something, like Kiyomori Taira.
Pretty shit to be honest. A far cry from Bushido.
>>344262994
My guess is love and hate since he let in the Gaijin and forced Japan to stop fucking their cousins and actually do something in the world.
>nu male narrating the video
>>344262994
the secret is that japan was colonized by the west as well
>>344262994
Many civs have their unique units/abilities/buildings from a variety of time periods. For example, Civ V Germany has their UA from Roman era, UB from early modern and UUs from early modern and WW2 respectively.
>>344263152

Why am I getting a Jessica Lange feeling from her.

>>344263263
why are they using Cleopatra again? not only is she greek, she is also completely unimpressive as a leader, all she did is try to maneuver around Rome and fail
its as fucking dumb as using Boudica for the Celts
>>344263229
you mean cucks?
>>344263384
They wanted her because it was easier to come up with a leader agenda for her than for Hatshepsut I guess.
>>344263384
They probably don't want to have every single Civilization headed by a man.
I want that fucking music they use in these trailers. It sounds so nice.
>>344263384
they basically want "big personalities" this time
I mean I'd prefer Hatshepsut but this is the hand dealt
Maybe there'll be Leader DLC for the popular ones that didn't make it in later
>>344263186
well yeah, they had the french, murricans and british meddling in their affairs, pushing them into the future, but they didn't get the India treatment.
Call me a dirty weeb, but the Meiji restoration is pretty inspiring.
>>344263384
Supposedly because "maneuvering around Rome" is the kind of personality they want to give to the AI.
>>344261989
>repelled the Mongol invasion
oh I didn't know this man was literally the weather :)
>>344263263
How on earth did they manage to make a Cleopatra I don't want to fuck?
>>344263384
To be fair Rameses II like won one battle by sheer luck and accidently then went on to build shit and they called him one of the best leaders.
Egypt didn't really have amazing leaders which is why they got taken over all the time.
>>344263536
Well his ability is called "Divine Wind"
>>344263263
I'm still questioning a lot of things about this game, but at least the porn's got plenty of fuel.

>>344262994
>Do the Nips hate him or something?
No, the nips love Meiji - japanese opinion on the samurai was that they were corrupt.
You can't have Meiji as leader of the Japanese civ if Samurai & Military is what your going for however. Blame firaxis
>>344263536
Mongol/Yuan/Korean troops did land on two separate invasions and Hojo was well-prepared the second time around with extensively fortified coast and such like (which prevented Mongols from landing and left them vulnerable when kamikaze came months later). It's not like the Japanese didn't see any fighting, although typhoons did obviously help.

>>344263683
I wanted Akhenaten too
>>344263659
Pretty fucking much.
He did literally nothing for 18 years, only managed to repel two invasions because of luck and the fact mongols are fucking stupid and sent riverboats across the ocean, then died just after turning 31 while waiting for a third invasion that never happened.
They literally could have chosen the 14 year old emperor and it would have been a much more interesting choice.
>>344263928
No, she was a member of Ptolemaic dynasty founded by Alexander the Great's general Ptolemy.
>>344263963

GREEK
Who will be the Chinese leader this time and how could they pick anyone but Qin?
>>344263851
Correction, the mongols did land, pillages a few villages too on the second invasion. But they lacked men to push forward.
Then the weather fucked them.
>>344264123

>>344264328
>the "isolationism is bad" meme
lol. europe was colonizing the world and setting up puppet governments the world over, telling them to fuck off was a good move
>>344264328
More like a golden age of peace and prosperity. And then they just westernized in 20 years anyway so who cares?
Hell, they westernized so fast that they were able to go full imperial mode against China before shit went down.
>>344264441
I should have specified a technological dark age

>>344264456
>>344264463
250 years later, but okay.
Name one good thing that came out of the Edo period. One thing at all,
>>344264547
Because of a dirty gaijin as the lead? The glorification of samurai?
>>344264682
probably race mixing
>>344264508
On the surface it's very JUST
But in reality it's a fine piece detailing the destruction of culture and heritage in favor of progress and machinery
If that doesn't get to you on some level, you're probably not entirely human anymore
>>344264682
>The glorification of samurai?
That, right there. Samurai of the Meiji period are understood by modern japanese as being corrupt warmongers, and getting rid of the caste system was a very good thing. The real life Satsuma Rebellion was about very different politics, and Jap's who watched Last Samurai hated the fact that the movie made samurai into virtue paragons who were fighting against the greedy corrupt meiji govt.
>>344264664
you're the one who brought up that was it bad. why don't you name something actually bad about it? other than "my poor christian monks aren't allowed in :( pls convert"
>>344264664
All those people not suffering and dying in warfare?
I think the only people who didn't like Edo were the Samurai because fighting and writing poetry about fighting was literally all they did.
>>344263263
That looking down at your penis and heavy eye makeup. This is my civ 6 trashy mistress.

>yfw no Gandhi

>>344264779
>"my poor christian monks aren't allowed in :( pls convert"
People don't realize this, but Ieaysu booted out the Christians because the Portuguese Jesuits were trying to influence and control the country. Christian converts were being openly encouraged to rebel against the rule of the Shogunate, and causing death and discord.
Kicking the entire religion out was actually a good thing.
>>344264772
Literally a nation born of plebs. Didn't reformed Samurai do tons of useful shit like start a hundred of the companies that are still globally active?
I can't even play Civ5 anymore because it looks like dogshit compared to this game. I used to think civ5 was comfy. Now I don't have a comfy 4x game to play.
>>344264879
>Europe intervening everywhere
great for europe, not for the smaller countries they tried to meddle with. such as japan.
>>344264879
Yeah, you outed yourself.
>>344264879
And now they're getting gunned down on the streets while the japanese don't even loot during disasters. What went wrong?
>>344264879
Thats only happens when you're yhe one doing the imperializing
What do you think it was going to happen if Japan stayed open?
>>344262994
Do Japanese gamers even play CIV?
>>344264991
Actually Japan and Thailand ended up with a massive net gain thanks to Europeans fucking everyone else way harder. How else do you think a worthless island like Japan was shitting all over a massive empire like China a century later?
>>344264907
>People don't realize this
I'm pretty sure most people realize this. The first step to colonizing a country was setting up a strong christian base.
>>344264907
>Jesuits
Every fucking time.
>>344264923
Its not the people, its the caste system.
Prior to the Tokugawa shogunate, there was still room for peasants to become samurai, provided reasons. Hideyoshi was a farmer who became leader of Japan prior to Ieayasu.
But throughout the Edo period, the caste system became ironclad, and this is what modern day japanese resent about the Samurai

How about the thousands of now unemployed ronin wandering the land and bullying and killing the peasants?
Maybe the rise of yakuza style gangs that lorded over areas with shady gambling practices and debt collecting?
Maybe the absolute technological stagnation of Japan that left them 200 years behind the rest of the world?
In the early 1800s, the Japanese were still living in wood and straw huts.
>>344265127
Why are Japanese plebs so evil and vindictive? Even POO THE LOO was able to take a far more rigid caste system in good stride for the sake of their nation's prosperity.
>>344265136
>"officer, i want you to know, i have a license to carry a firearm, and i have a pistol"
>get shot by cop
>>344265081
the only reason the japan after the edo period was able to modernize so easily was thanks to the confucius spirit of duty and hard work that the edo period worked to cultivate thanks to the unprecedented era of peace which let their philosophers and artists take the reigns for a while. the edo period basically set up the modern japanese work ethic that we know today
>>344265019
the Japanese only achieved their current level of developement AFTER they opened up though, for fucks sake they were still using antiquated musket designs they copied from the Portuguese when the rest of the world had rifles and steam powered ships
>>344265058

You mean Europe while the rest of the world was being blown to pieces by them
Always amazed me why the Europeans left Japan relatively alone. You can't say they were beneath them because those invasive fuckers colonized every bit of blood-soaked soil on the planet.

They only really managed to take the coast before being bogged down. They wouldn't have been able to hold China even after the Chinese government surrendered. Fighting against guerrilla tactics in a country of 800 million people wouldn't work.

which may have just unified china faster. the only thing stopping the japanese lines from being overrun were civil wars being fought in other parts of the country. and even then being sent to those front lines was literally a death sentence for japanese soldiers. it wasn't sustainable by any stretch of the imagination, but the leaders back home had their heads in the clouds

Sorry, I was forgetting about Manchuria, but even taking that into account, they were still only controlling roughly 1/6th of China, and "control" isn't even the right word considering there was so much resistance in those occupied areas that the only way the Japanese could deal with it was to apply their Three Alls tactics (Kill all, burn all, loot all). They would've never been able to hold all of China.
>>344266131
Massive focus on Navy. All modern major empires were naval powers.
>>344266246
>So? Spain had the best navy and still got BTFO by an inferior navy.
If they got beaten then they weren't be best, were they?
>>344266405
best equipment and numbers, inferior tactics and leadership. same reason france lost to germany despite technically having a massive numerical advantage in both troops and (at the time) superior tanks
>>344266180
>>344266204
>>344266337
So was it a matter of I'll just blockade the shit out of you, if you don't agree with me?
They also seemed a decent job at managing to levy troops out of a native population, which was like, how?
Assuming these aren't actually all different units, it seems as though there are culture groups for unit skins.
>>344266246
Spain built a massive navy, became powerful and then just rested on it's laurels. When the Americans engaged the Spanish fleet in the 19th century they fucked them up big time with way less ships since the Spanish never bothered to improve their ships.
>>344265507
I only know of the old version
>>344266489
Because that's totally the conflict we were talking about.
Anyway, war is mostly about skill. The Ottomans was the greatest naval force until they fucked up by Cyprus and all their experienced sailors got BTFO. They never recovered.
>>344266475
>They also seemed a decent job at managing to levy troops out of a native population, which was like, how?
Ezy

The same way the Spanish beat the Aztecs with only 500 men. They allied with all the other natives around the area who were sick of the Aztec's shit.
>>344266605

>So was it a matter of I'll just blockade the shit out of you, if you don't agree with me?
The whole point of Empires is the ability to send troops anywhere in your realm. This meant building roads for the Roman Empire. But when you talk about an Empire spanning the globe, it means warships and troop transports. Empires need force projection. When USA declared independence, the British contested it by sending an army. The ABILITY to send that army is dependent on having a navy.
>>344266605

they all have same icon so they're the same unit. seems like they're taking cards from most popular mods and civ alternatives. i'm glad.
>>344266775
well at that point they're basically feudal peasants like the ones you have back home, so yeah you fuck them over but you do it with taxes and levies instead of small pox and blankets
I thought they were supposed to have 2 unique units, one related to the civ and one related to the leader. Since Roosevelt has Rough Riders and there's also a p-51 mustang.

Nothing savage about the Aztecs, they were educated, cultured and civilized. They only killed people because they thought it was keeping doomsday at bay, as did everyone else in the region.

Yeah, imagine if it is China that modernize first. Japan will be another star on China flag. And China might actually own more stars that USA.
>>344266920
So chinese were savage?
>>344266680
Being noble is one thing, but they weren't savages (in the sense of primitive group of people without proper civilization). For starters, Tenochtitlan was one of the largest cities at the time (only rivalled by the likes of Paris and Venice in Europe and modern-day Nanjing, Bejing and Guangzhou in China) built on artificial island with urban planning superior to its contemporaries.
>>344266993
Is that even a question?
>>344266970
China couldn't have modernized while it was under Qing rule. Those guys couldn't even keep their Ming-era technology running.
I really want to f*ck Victoria.
>>344266993
Everyone that isn't a White European (and even then white=/=white) is a savage.
>>344267085
I don't think my dick will handle any leader in this game, the animations they're showing are sexual af.
>>344266845
Ed Beach actually said most Civs would only have one Unique Unit, and in Teddy's case it's technically his personal Unique Unit (so, theoretically, if you could mix and match Leaders, you could have Spanish Rough Riders) anyway.

In a way they're still superior to us because they somehow made death seem like an awesome prospect. I'm deathly afraid of dying and so are most westerners because we were only taught that there was a granddad in heaven, and that turned out to be bullshit so now we have nothing left.
I hope they don't go full retard and make something like Poland or Babylon along with something like Iroquois or Venice.
>>344266475
It's basically what they threatened to do to the German Empire
The German Empire started building a navy so it could protect itself from that kind of threat and look where it is now.

They were. They lost the Bismarck in WW2 during some unimportant skirmish.
Naval combat sucks, in Civ and IRL. The only part of naval combat in history that's even the slightest bit interesting was the Titanic's sister ship which was completely fucking unsinkable and rammed other boats into submission for the entirety of the war.

At least they aren't lying about why they pick dumb shit ones like Cleopatra
More name recognition then actual history
Unless you're a man then they pick Hojo no-one has ever heard of him even most Japanese people unless they paid attention in history class.
>>344267665
It was even more expensive to let them do nothing

>Unless you're a man then they pick Hojo no-one has ever heard of him even most Japanese people unless they paid attention in history class.
They wanted to pick someone who modernised Japan. They want both Japan's past and present represented, and you really can't get anyone more recent than Hojo. Too recent past WW2 and no one would know who they are, and anyone related to War on the Pacific is too political.

There was a decently successful TV drama about him from 2001. Not saying it would put him at the forefront of the Japanese zeitgeist but it probably helps cultural awareness at least a little bit.

>In the early hours of 12 May 1918, while en route for France with US troops under the command of Captain Hayes, Olympic sighted a surfaced U-boat 500 m (1,600 ft) ahead.[60] Her gunners opened fire at once, and she turned to ram the submarine, which immediately crash dived to 30 m (98 ft) and turned to a parallel course. Almost immediately afterwards Olympic struck the submarine just aft of her conning tower and her port propeller sliced through U-103's pressure hull. The crew of U-103 blew her ballast tanks, scuttled and abandoned the submarine.Olympic did not stop to pick up survivors, but continued on to Cherbourg. Meanwhile, the USS Davis had sighted a distress flare and picked up 31 survivors from U-103. Olympic returned to Southampton with at least two hull plates dented and her prow twisted to one side, but not breached.[61]

I think a neat thing about it is that it's not purely defensive - invading by sea means hitting other shallows and taking a beachhead, so the Japanese are also good at naval-based expansion.
>>344264430
>>344263263
Looks like shit, the Female Civs in 5 were definitely more fappable than these. Wouldn't want to see an SFM Porn of.

Seriously, civilizations and empires did not start in Europe.

Miyamoto likes to sneak Japanese cultural shit in his games. Also See: the origins of Star Fox and all those archways you can fly through.
>>344270124
Being a fag was a cultural thing in Japan at the time, just like with the Ancient Greeks. It's not blameworthy like it is now.
>>344270189
If he wasn't such a fag he might have unified Japan.
