Reindeer Rider, of course.
Who would the Viking leader be, though? Whatever historical persona they wind up choosing for the Vikings would be a bit of a stretch, I think.

I suggest you reread my post and pay extra attention to the quotations. I also will buy and play cIV as soon as it comes out. That was directed at yin26. You'll note the link to a thread of his.

Sabre2th: For me, having a Korean-speaking Civ would be a novelty. I might enjoy that, and certainly many Koreans / Korean speakers might as well. Do I think the game is worth buying if you have already played 1 2 and 3 to death? (Or given up on, for example, 3 because you felt it was horrible.) Not from what we've learned about the game so far...unless you are just like a junkie strung out on crack or something.
What confuses people is that I actually want the Civ franchise to be a huge success but feel that pandering to the lowest common denominator (perhaps not in all cases but in many) simply isn't the way in my opinion. I have to say, though, that --assuming they do it well, which we'll have to see-- this kind of touch bodes well for the game.
In any event, yours was a fair question, and I hope I've explained myself a bit.
EDIT: I'm talking about, of course, this announcement: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthre...threadid=136243

Thank you for not taking offense there, yin. After rereading that post, I realize that I didn't word it terribly well. I know that you want the franchise to succeed, but I'm pretty sure I've seen you say you will not [waste] money on the game, which makes me wonder why you would much care what or who was in it

Sabre2th: Unless Markos sends me a copy of the game for review, I don't plan to buy the game unless the Poly reception is really good (need solid, detailed reviews). Of course, if Markos sends me a copy for review --and if I like the game's combat and find ICS isn't the dominant strategy-- then I'd have to eat at least part of the box. So now that I think about it, maybe I should just sneak in a few turns at a friend's house and go into hiding. But, as for the topic of this thread, these little touches do help the game, I think.
As for Korea, the leaders should be (in this order): King Sejong (great inventor -- or supporter of inventions, including the world's most well-crafted phonetic alphabet) and Dan-gun (mythical founder of Korea who started life as a bear) -- as Masuro said.
If you want another one to think about, there's Admiral Lee Sun Shin of the famous turtle boat fame...and you know the turtle boat unit would *have* to be in the game.
