I support 1 new indian civ and revamping the current indian civ.
Or removing the current indian civ and adding 2 new ones.
Because otherwise the civ designs would be redundant i.e the fish and villager bonus.

Iād just love to see more representation of Arabic and African factions too before we reach the limit of the civs total.
Focussing alone on Asia would be a mistake, hence we donāt need 3 or 4 Indian civs - especially considering that people would still like to see civs like Tibetans, Jurchens and Siamese included as well.
Sounds like a more reasonable approach.
dunno which part of community you are considering as āpeopleā but a large portion of it wants atleast 3 indian civs

Lol not at all. We are just tired of European civs.
At this point, any civ from any other part of the world could work.

this pole doesnt say anything about adding new indian civs

But it DOES prove my point about the community wanting anything thatās not European and they want it from all over the world. Just read the replies.
Nobody wants 3 indian civs if that means civ slots are going to be wasted. And I say āwastedā because there is a cap for new civs.

We literally have something like 4 slav civs but having 3 Indian civs is too much?

exactly my thoughtā¦ they get triggered when there was only one slavic civā¦ now they complain when we want the same

Lol what are you talking about. People are getting jumpy because the slots are capped.
If burgundians and sicilians didnāt exist, heck I would support 4 indian civs in total. Those taken their places. Come on, you should be reasonable.

i just dont want to see bengalis and tamils speaking hindi while they were totally different in language, culture and ethnicity ā¦ just like the slavic community wanted for themselves

I feel you, bro. Well, I still think burgundians and sicilians are a mistake.
And they better make poles and bohemians very, very, very unique or else Iām going to be pissed.

This poll has a lot of issues, not mentioning that it doesnāt differentiate between having a cap on new civs nor if Caucasus counts as European nor if weāre talking about the next or even further future DLCs (if we get any).

No disrespect. But who asked you to crop out Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan and potentially Afghanistan? Also did you maintain the scale of map? Iām surprised to see India is so big when compared to Europe.

If we have a limit of letās say 48 civs, that still leaves us space for 2 Indian civs
Just look at this:
Indian DLC:
- Tamil
- Bengal
- Persian campaign
African DLC:
- Kanem Bornu
- Swahili/Hausa
- Turk campaign
American DLC
- Chimu
- PurƩpecha
- Maya campaign
Caucasian DLC
- Georgians
- Armenians
- Slav campaign
Thereās still one extra civ slot you can use anywhere else. Works just fine.
Itās not my map. Itās just to give a general idea. I didnāt meant to offend anybody. India is really big. The Mercator projection gives the impression that land masses near the equator are small. Thatās why the size of Africa, South America and India is often underestimated. You need space for one billion people.
