What was so special about Russian females anyway?
Is there some particular reason as to why they should get female vills and not the rest of the civs?

Because just about every single guy in WW2 was in the armed forces, because they did not keep people out for physical maladies like the U.S. because they needed everyone they could get. I actually think it would be more logical for all the civs to have female citizens, because in reality in wartime they did most of the work on the home front. The russians get the Sniper because they used them the most and theirs were the most famous.

Because they are, in many cases, better able to cut wood/gather resources, than the Russian men.

The Soviet pwns you
It might be some sort of advantage or misadvantage? Are there different stats for female and male villagers anyway?

this was asked before
the reason not all civs have female citizens is that each would be unique. and, for seven civs, (and considering how many animations a villie needs), it would take up a lot of space. So, they decided not to include it in the game. but there's always the expansion.
Bah.

What is amazing to me is how many replies a thread about the lack of female villagers gets.

wow, I'm suprised this is a debatable issue hehe. I was looking more at the debates of wether civs should have mobile AA, rush deterrants, Advanced fighters... and so on. Having female villies has nothing to do with anything. As far as I'm concerned, I'd rather see machinery rather than some dude walking up to a pile rocks with a pick in 1945. I thought EE was funny because villies in the nano-age still used picks and axes by hand. I don't care though, I would rather the extra polygons be applied to another military unit rather than extra skin for different types of citz.
