Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. OK, so one day you're having a look around your local video game store. Then you see it: "Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Warlords". You've already got the original game, and you have to have it, so you walk over to the cashier and buy it. You rush home, and turn on your computer. After installing the new game, the first thing you see is the main menu. You decide to first check out the new scenarios. Which of the following is not a new scenario?

Answer: Conquering the New World

You can play as the Rome, Greece, Carthage, Egypt or Celtia to struggle to control the Mediterranean in 'Rise of Rome', take on the role of one of seven states to conquer all China in 'Chinese Unification' or play as the nomadic Mongols to either destroy Eurasian civilization or co-operate with it by creating a mighty empire of your own in 'Ghengis Khan'. There are more to play; "Warlords" comeswith 8 new scenarios.

Sadly, there isn't a 'Conquering the New World' scenario, although it would have been pretty cool to play as one of the European superpowers and colonise the Americas, capturing Native American and Amerindian cities.

Answer: Malinese Empire

In "Civilization IV: Warlords" there are 6 new Civilizations: the Korean, Ottoman, Zulu, Celtic, Viking and Carthaginian Empires. These new Civs bring with them new leaders and new leader traits (Imperialistic, Charismatic and Protective). Together these new Civs bring great new cultures to enhance your gaming experience and give a bit of variety so that you're not always playing the same old Civilizations.

3. You click on every Civ in the list, and see that some of the existing Civilizations have new leaders. Which of these Civilizations does not have a new leader?

Answer: Spain

Egypt now has Ramesses II, Augustus Caesar is now available with the Romans, and you can now take on the role of Josef Stalin when playing the Russian Empire. Additionally, England now has Winston Churchill, although he was a ruler of the UK, as was Victoria. In fact the only 'English' leader is Elizabeth I, so they should probably rename 'England' the 'British Empire'.

4. Next, you have a look at the Carthiginian Empire. Which famous historical figure is the leader of this Civilization?

Answer: Hannibal

Hannibal was a Carthiginian General, famous for his crossing of the Alps to get to the Romans with elephants. In the game, he has the 'Financial' leader trait, as well as the new 'Charismatic' trait. As with all Civilizations, the culture of carthage is reflected in its unique unit and building; the former is the 'Numidian Cavalry' unit, the Numidians being close trade allies of the Carthagininans, and the latter being a 'Cothon', a building that replaces the harbour, showing the fact that Carthage was a mighty Mediterranean port.

Answer: Polytheism

The Temple of Artemis, in real life located at Ephesus in Turkey when still in existance, is availble following the researching of Polytheism. The first to research this technology is also the founder of Hinduism.

Answer: Library

Unique buildings are a new concept, introduced with "Warlords". These often have greater advantages than their normal counterparts. With "Warlords", Obelisks were swapped for Monuments, and the former became the Unique Building for Egypt, taking the place of the latter.

The building that replaces the Aqueduct is the Ottoman 'Hammam', the Chinese 'Pavillion' replaces the Theatre, and the University is replacd by the Korean 'Seowon'.

Answer: Celts

The Celts are a new Civilization, with the leader Brennus (and Boudicca with "Beyond the Sword"). Their unique building is the Dun, replacing Walls.

8. After centuries of war, you finally gain the technology to fight back against your enemies. You can now train a Trireme. Which sort of military unit is a Trireme?

Answer: Naval

Triremes were a Mediterranean ship with three oars on either side, hence the 'Tri' part of the name. Together with the Siege unit, Trebuchet, the Trireme makes up one of the two new units available to all Civilizations with "Warlords".

9. You win a few battles, and your unique units gain enough experience points for you to recieve a new type of Great Person, a Great General. Which of the following can a Great General not do?

Answer: Discover military-related technologies

When a Great Military Instructor, your Great General gives all new units constucted in that city 2 experience points. If you choose to turn your Great General into a Military Academy, you will give that city 25% more production when building military units. Finally, if you select the 'Lead troops as Warlord' interaction, you will immediately distribute 20 XP amongst the other military units in the tile.

Then you will select one of the other units in that tile. This will be your 'Warlord' unit.

Answer: Vassal State Agreement

This new Diplomatic option is available with Feudalism. A 'Defensive Pact' is an agreement where to Civilizations agree to protect each other if another Civ declares war on one of them, and a 'Permanent Alliance' is an agreement wher two Civilizations become effectively one Empire with two leaders. A 'Protection Treaty' is something I made up.
