Answer: Mao

Mao Tse Tung, Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party and leader of China in the game, died in 1976, in real life, while Gandhi died in 1948. The others are not great leaders in the game.

Answer: False

Beserkers, the earliest units in the game to have the amphibious invasion ability, replace the Longbowman for the Scandinavians and have A/D/M ratings of 6/2/1, making them very formidable units.

4. The Zulu Impi is better than the standard spearman on what statistic?

The Zulu Impi has a movement rate of 2, compared to the Spearman's movement rate of 1. This probably has to do with the fact that in the Zulu Wars, English and Boer troops frequently found that the Zulu warriors could outrun cavalry on broken ground!

A sitter that one. Hammurabi was the ruler of ancient Babylon, now in Iraq, while the others were the rulers of Egypt (Cleopatra), Carthage (Hannibal) and the Zulu nation (Shaka)
