Hello, I am curious if someone knew this.
I was playing a multiplayer game today on Prince-level. Since I was stuck on a continent, and had about 4 triemes ready to search the sea for other civs/huts, I decided to build the LIGHTHOUSE.
When the lighthouse was built, I explored the world (large map). To my amazement, I got nomads and cities from about every hut I encountered. I think of 15 huts, I got barbarians twice and an advance, but got nomads or cities from the rest of the huts.
Now this got me thinking...is this because of the easy level (I normally play on diety in single player games), or is it because I built the LIGHTHOUSE?
Has there been any testings about this? If it is because of the lighthouse, I think this wonder deserves to be a top priority. I mean if this is statistically confirmed, I will ALWAYS build the lighthouse.
Any comments?
