Ok so instead of changeing every function of the game how about your listen to the people that play the game. Cold War Age coming soon. Let's talk about getting some Cold War Nations! You know like the USA and the Soviet Union. Come
on dominations let's get it right. It's been over a year since release of a new nation!

USA might be a difficult nation for the design team to incorporate since their first age will probably be the gunpowder age.

Not really.
Ever heard of Aztecs,p (duh , they are at Embassy) Olmecs, Maya's or Inca's? those are nations that lived in Iron Age and later Ages on lands where USA stands now.

Their uniques though might be troubling to undestand as tou'd have Maya's warriors, then indians, then cowboys lol

 

[vincentdang4]

None of those civilizations settled lands now within the USA. And iron age never arrived for those civilizations, as great as they were.

Vincentdang4 I see your lacking in your history bud. There were people in North America around the same time as Egypt in fact the latest find shows that they may have been here befor Egypt became a true power. And u would be wrong about none of those nations coming out of the Iron Age. Pretty sure America is a super power and I'm pretty sure the Indians still live here. Also the Indians built massive city's that were destroyed by abandoning them to ruins and the fact that settlers took there land. But there is still places in St. Louis were there's now a area preserved from old Indian civilizations. Check out that link has some useful information https://youtu.be/RkicPYuEv2E

lol. I'm well aware of the indigenous peoples of the Americas. However, the USA doesn't include Mexico and South America, which is where many of the civilizations you mentioned primarily settled. The Native American nations that did settle in North America did not develop smelting techniques (as far as we know) so they did not experience an iron age and they were also forced to give up many of their lands when the colonists came through. None of these great peoples transitioned seamlessly through the ages to establish the USA as we know it today. So even if you were to use Native Americans, you would have a huge age gap in between tipis and the gunpowder age.

Thanks for the link Angel forever, I have seen this documentary before, but the video posted has nothing to do with either of the two statements I made. As Swinton mentioned below, none of the civilizations listed by ColdestRage (Aztecs, Mayans, and Olmecs) lived in the current geographical border of the United States. They settled in lands currently Mexico and Central America, hence would be very out of place for a USA civilizations. Not that Dominations is historically accurate. Also, I did not dispute the fact that there were great cultures in The United States that have left traces of technology and advancement. However, there are few (if any) proof that they made it to the Iron Age. Iron Age requires... iron smelting. None of the United States pre-Columbian cultures were mass making iron tools prior to the arrival of the Europeans. In fact, the Pre-Columbian cultures in the United States were not even smelting copper to make bronze (no Bronze Age), though they did use native copper such as the Mississippian culture that left the St. Louis ruins you mentioned. Hard to have a bronze and iron age when a culture never actually transitioned through one

I think, given the historical ''artistic licence'' of some of the nations, we can have an ''American'' nation which includes the natives Americans.
Many people regard the whole USSR as being ''Russia'', so what's the big deal? It's just a game after all !!
