As already announced, here's the ancient Mountain City of Petra (Jordan). Found some extra time today to finish it, so...
No ideas for game stats yet, so any advise more than welcome.
Ciao.

I think it should also get a lot of culture + the Tourist Site flag under C3C.

I like it! :goodjob:

I'm just going to have it increasing luxury trade rather than the Colossus effect, give it 4 culture and check the "tourist attraction" flag. It will also create 2 happy faces.

Perhaps not everyone intends it to be for a wonder?

Yep, exactly. That's where that was filmed. Haven't been there yet, but my girlfriend has. She says it's amazing. Maybe one day...:rolleyes:

Beautiful. I'll use this as a built wonder in an Industrial Age scenario, then keep an Adventurer unit, renamed to Indiana Jones, in the same city. :D

If I remember Petra was first a monastic center, or not?

...and two! I think that Petra must be builds an adventurer (take a look on unit library) every 6 turns.

Well, since Israel will be one of the new civs in my mod, Petra would fit nicely. Consider it downloaded AK47! :D
