With Gal Civ 3 supporting multi-player, I thought I'd start a hypothetical question/forum game:
Pick one specific character from any work of sci-fi (games, books, movies, TV, etc.) you could have on your multiplayer team. It's like fantasy football only for Galactic Civilizations 3. We can can compare our picks and decide which character would top the others. I'll start.
My pick is Paul "Muad'Dib" Atreides from the Duniverse. Prescient vision, trained from birth to fight and negotiate, can ride sandworms, controls an army of Fremen warriors, overthrew a galactic empire, started his own dynasty and monopolizes the most important substance in that setting's universe (the spice). Also he has all blue eyes which is kind of cool, and can teleport short distances due to his Wierding Way training.
Beat that.
