Default Mongol!
Russel Crowe's only good movie was Mystery, Alaska.

I wish we'd seen more of his efforts to raise his army. He's chilling with his family in one scene, and in teh next he's got 6,000 men

Also, how long was Borte boinking teh Tangut guy before she rescued him?

I am currently reading Conn Iggulden's series on Genghis. So far, he's written Genghis: Birth of an Empire and Genghis: Lord of Bows

The author has not only done his research well, but he alse went and lived with the Mongols.

Yes, awesome scene. Great art direction and demonstration of tactics. We really need to start a "Civ List" of movies that depict tactics of the different civs.

I look forward to seeing this movie.

Mongols were no longer the tough guys after their conversion to Lamaism.

The last warrior tribe, the Dzungars, were exterminated by the Qing Empire.

Ulan Baator has become a very Soviet city later on.
