    Default how to choose a random faction?

    Ever since SS6.0 and later 6.1 have been released, I havent played a faction longer than about 30 turns. I just cant make up my mind on what to play.Is there a good way to choose a random one? maybe a tool or something for it?

    Close your eyes, move the mouse about (not too violently) and click.

    I usually play factions that are norse related. I love vikings.

    How about: You write down all factions on little pieces of paper, toss em around in a hat, and pull one out. the faction on the piece of paper you pull out will be the one you'll play.

    I can never make a decision either. I just number them all in my head (#1 is top left and move from left to right on the top row then to the bottom row, etc) and then use this site http://www.random.org/integers/ to pick a random number.
