    It doesn’t. They mentioned there would be a unique skin for Napoleon if you signed up but it didn’t sound required.

      Ah, so that’s why your leader now appears when you are communicating with a different civ. They had to add this for bullshit skins monetization.

      Edit: I wonder if this will be moddable: I now wanna see Master Chief teabagging Cleopatra when I declare war

      The steam page literally says that it requires a 3rd party account for online play (just not required for offline play). so I’m not sure if that’s what you’re referencing.

        Ah, there’s the catch and confusion. Not required for single player but required for multi, I guess? Not sure how others play Civ but that’s not gonna affect me. I’ve only ever played these games solo besides a very rare duo game.
