Lizzy of France : will probably keep
Ramssess of Ottomans : will probably keep
Kublai of Inca : Meh due to creative destroying the terrace's ability. Will probably reroll
Gilgamesh of Aztecs : Aztecs so will probably keep
Augustus of Sumeria : ind sumeria will be kept
Wong Kon of England : will probably be kept
Montezuma of China : China is good, dunno if Krill will want to keep it though.
Sitting Bull of NA : one of the worst combos of the lot, I'd be surprised if REM doesn't reroll.
Ragnar of Japan : Ragnar doesn't really do much for the early game and Japan is mid-to-late game focused too, it's risky. What's the UB now again ?
QSH of Germany : I don't remember Germany's uniques right now. If it's a forge it could be a keeper. If not, well ind for a game this big...
Stalin of the Zulu : AWESOME !!!!!! Donovan is not an idiot and will not discard agg Zulu after not playing PB24 zulus.
Darius of India : India is its own early trait so it's a pretty great combo actually. Would be stupid to discard
Charly of Mongolia : Ok I guess. Will quite possibly be rerolled.
Shaka of USA : Nice. The new UB for the US is a barrack right ? If so should be kept.
Toku of Carthage : Carthage with lots of potential OBs and probably lots of islands is great. I'd keep it, I don't know if CH will want Toku though.
Willem of Celts : I don't like Celts much. Maybe Molach likes them more, or likes Willem.
Justinian of Russia : solid I suppose, but not great. Could be rerolled but low number of imp leaders (only 3) makes it better than it should be.
Hannibal of Vikings : not bad, vikings on this map will be cool (plus fin coast). I'd keep, dunno what Borsche will do.
Saladin of Spain : Pro citadels are nice I suppose. I was never a fan of the citadel but the only times I played the spanish where before I learned the usefulness of collateral. Yuri is a vet and will probably know how to exploit them, I expect him to keep it.
Fred of Korea : strong all around, ind isn't that great though. I'd keep but barely. Maybe NS will take the risk.
Pacal of Persia : good in the late game with Fin+4 health to counter the factory unhealthiness. Immortal and exp are useful in the early game I guess, so it's not a bad combo. Also you get the double food tech start. I'd keep it but barely as well.
Hammu of Arabia : Ok I guess. No one likes Arabia though, Gav will probably reroll.
Zara Yacob of the Dutch : That's the one I'm interested in.
The thing is, the Dutch are cool and I want to play them. They're also usually underrated (or perhaps justly rated, I feel like they're stronger than what most people think but I could be wrong) so they might be discarded by VA and TT. Of course fin dutch would probably be best but you can't have it all. There are no better combos than mine that I feel will be discarded except for this one (maybe). Then I would need to get lucky with the rolls and get it in the next two rolls. I feel like I should play this conservatively and take Ragnar, to avoid a reroll of Willem of Celts followed by Sitting Bull of NA.
