Holy shit. They complained about a supermodel hotty wearing a headress looking F-I-N-E fine.

What would they say about a video game featuring Chief Scalpum and hit merry band of tomahawking men?

DUDE you could choose the one of the indian tribes, the english, or the french.

You could pick your loadout and transportation based on your culture.

You could make strategic alliances.

You could use terrain in your homelands to your advantage.

This would be all kinds of awesome as a first person shooter / strategy / RPG mix.

Sounds very interesting and I'm not a regular video game player. I'd love to see it; complete with historically accurate weaponry, tactics, etc. for all groups. Are there smallpox blankets in the arsenal?

Yes, but they only work if the indians decide to accept them. Factors that may play into that include the status of relations with the european faction and current weather and supply conditions.

It would be a blast. Also you would need to form a relationship with the Three Kingdoms (Aztec, Inca, Mayan by the way) to secure the southern border. A mutual non aggression pact while they deal with Spain and Portugal. It would like Nobunaga's Ambition but much better.

Approx. when did those folks die out/go away?

From one of the links in the Cracked article:


Smallpox is believed to have arrived in the Americas in 1520 on a Spanish ship sailing from Cuba, carried by an infected African slave. As soon as the party landed in Mexico, the infection began its deadly voyage through the continent. Even before the arrival of Pizarro, smallpox had already devastated the Inca Empire, killing the Emperor Huayna Capac and unleashing a bitter civil war that distracted and weakened his successor, Atahuallpa.

Imagine if history would've been different we would've had...

Native American Idol
Native American Bandstand
Native American Eagle
United States of Native America
Native America the Beautiful
Native American Pie, Wedding, Reunion
Native American cheese
African Native American
Native American Ninja

So much history there.

Instead of Jersey Shore there'd be Lake Huron Shore.

So bye, bye Miss Native American Pie, rode my pony to the levy but the levy was dry
Good ol braves, drinkin' firewater and shine
Singing "just another day in the tribe. Just another day in the tribe."

You may be onto something here.
