	Fried Banana Sandwiches Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I've been playing Mass Regicide (hey, seven free scout units with 2x movement), when all my Chairman Moa's turned into Elvis and started demanding Fried Banana sandwiches.

Now I'm busy looking for the banana resource, a new luxury I hope.

It's Elvis' birthday. A little easter egg that Firaxis put in the Regicide game. I think it's kinda cool.

For those who of you who didn't get a chance to play Civ 1. Elvis used to be one of the advisors back then. Firaxis is just acknowledging their roots with this latest incarnation.

There were advisors in Civ1? I thought Elvis was for Civ2?

Perhaps I'm clinically insane.

I believe he was the Domestic Advisor. It's been awhile though, so I don't remember exactly.

Tub has got it right, who was the militairy advisor again?

Famous actor (blackadder, claudius,..), he recently attempted to climb Everest. Always forget hit name..

Brian Blessed? Is that right (if it was him uberhaupt , could just my imagination )

Aha! I knew it wasn't my imagination playing tricks on me! A funny little easter egg, especially when Mao is represented as an Elvis unit.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't Brian Blessed. He was pretty cool though.

Build City Walls!

and what was it the Grima Wormtongue/financial adviser used to say?

"All will benefit when the finest goods are traded in our city."

Not Brian Blessed. The quote I remember was "General, you're letting our crack troops go to waste" (adviser puts cigar back into mouth).

I warmonger a lot more in civ3.

Elvis was in Civ1... sorta... the entertainer citizens in the city screen were a guitar-donned Elvises.

he he, when I first started playing on the Atari with a black & white tv screen (seriously) the quality was rubbish & he looked like a guy in a turban carrying a sword. I wondered what this guy with a sword did to make the populace happy...

My favorite clips from Civ2:

Science Advisor (when you're technologically advanced):
"I'm off to play with my abacus!"

Military Advisor (when kicking butt):
Says nothing. Just strolls by singing carrying a pint.

Elvis:
"It's good to be the king."

My fav was the military advisor "Let's go bonk some heads!"

when theres more easter eggs than useable features, a software company should take a serious look at itself.

just my 2 cents
