Are you certain that bonuses apply only during the age they are acquired and do not persist through other ages? If so, if I may ask, where did you hear this? -rdm

The new site looks great! The main thing I'd like to see is more info pages on each Civ (like what was done with Cleo and Genghis) talking about unique units and powers, etc. Have to start my endless pondering of who to play as. :cool: -rdm

He talked about building the Cristo Redentor, which allows civics swaps every turn.

I was also experiencing the same OOS issue after every 10-15 turns when playing on a LAN with one other person. We both uninstalled and reinstalled and went at least 200 turns in a new game with no problems. -rdm

The Great Wall's effects work for all your cultural borders on the continent that it's built on. The wall graphic is just that -- a graphic. This includes keeping barbarians out as well as the double xp earned for battles won vs. enemy civs inside your own borders. -rdm
