Hi All
I think most of us will agree that it is pretty difficult to build the Great Library on Deity.
This has become even more difficult with G&K expansion. In most of my Deity games the GL is gone by turn 34-37.
The problem of AI favouring certain wonders has been around since CiV came out and in my opinion this part of the game mechanic is broken. Really, knowing for certain that AI will build GL or other wonders (eg SH) by certain turn makes for predictable and boring gameplay.
I was thinking of a solution to this problem and would like to hear what others think.
Perhaps we can arrive at a better system which could be used in CiVI
I apologise if this has been discussed already but I could not find a similar topic.
The idea:
Abandon technology prerequisites for building of World Wonders.
Any civ can commence building any World Wonder from their CURRENT ERA at any time. Technologies which previously were the prerequisites to the wonders now simply ENHANCE the construction allowing the wonder to be constructed faster.
So for example the Pyramids can be commenced way before discovery of masonary but once that tech is discovered, the construction accelerates considerably.
Discuss further?
