Leaders in different govts
I read on one of the forums here recently someone suggesting different leaders taking over civs at certain points, and a more refined thought of that just popped in my head, although it'd be probably too late and such a change anyway to implement, well anyway, here it is:
Have a different leader for each type of government, or whatever main SE equivalent is in that area, from history corrseponding with that type of government. Here's what I'd do for the US:


Republic: Washington (or maybe an early Speaker of the House)
Democracy: Lincoln
Communism: Eugene Debs
Despotism: Uh, FDR? j/k
Monarchy: George W. Bush (Actually I have no clue)

Well that's just the jist of it, but I guess it'd be impossible to put in there, since they've already done the leaders graphics and all that, plus everyone likes thinking they're against the same people for the entire game.

I don't reallt think that a good idee....... becouse in your nations YOUR the leader...... why should all the other civs get diffrent leader. Doen't really see a point int that........ This havn't maid the cut anyways.

Yeah, I know, it just popped in my head and then I wrote it, I still kinda like it, but know it's not gonna happen, nor would it.

I guess this should just serve as a lesson to think about something before you say or type it

Nice idea for the AI civs, the only problem being how would we come up with a communist leader for the Romans or Babs...

Well you could just come up with Italian communists and Saudi ones too, if any of those exist.

I think it would be a bit weird to have Lincoln as you leader, then change to Washington, then 1000 years later have Lincoln back as you leader
