Hard coded Civ limit and wonder rush question...

Genltmen...

Any indication that they'll be changing the # of Civs limit at any point? I understand not being able to play with more than 16 in a game, but to encode an availability limit is just foolish. I have 2 civs to add to the game, but cannot because of the availability limit, unless I want to delete other Civs, which is simply addition by subtraction.

Also -

What is the best way to give military great leaders the ability to rush Great Wonders again? The scientific GL is a nice add on, but to not have a military leader able to finish Sun Tzu or Knight's Templar is sorta stupid.

Thanks in advance...

I kind of like it actually...it makes sense that a scientific civ would be able to rush a great wonder, but that military leaders can't. I think it's a positive change.

You can play with all 31 in a game. Why is there a limit at all? Probably a data structure left over from the original development team that was too much trouble to change.

AFAIK, there isn't a way to do what you want with MGLs.

You think it makes sense that Albert Einstein could rush Sun Tzu's War Academy or the Knights Templar, but not a military GL? That's just logically specious.

Regardless, I simply am seeking a way to make this a flexible item. I like the SGL concept, but not to excluding the military GL from rush building Great Wonders. I am more than willing to change this in the editor, just need to know where. If warpstorm is correct, it seems to be another example of inflexibility without purpose. Perhaps this will change coming up in a patch.

Don't know if its a bug but MGL can rush a palace and i guess forbidden palace. Didn't try to change it to a wonder after but if you can you should be able to rush with MGL.
