A bunch of new previews

Both of the English articles in the OP describe the WC as too easy to control. That's worrying..

Edit: The venturebeat article says


That seems odd, an Embargo should prevent the civ from sending caravans to CSs and trading lux/strat resources imo.

I concur that this would be a major issue if it cropped up in the final release. Lets hope the playtesters & designers are working hard on making this element of the game more dynamic. Aside from the low difficulty, there is also the fact that there were so few civs in this game (only 4), & thus also very few CS's-which might have contributed to the apparent "snowball" effect.
