    City States gift Khans as Great People

    I can confirm this! I played as China on Emperor lvl difficulty and got 3 Khans instead of GG. The one thing is , they stay on horseback even though you could develop new Ages (GG get in Jeeps in the Modern age..etc) buggeriffic

    Building of national wonder stopped when razing enemy city

    Team, When building a national item (National Epic) where a requirement is a building needed in every city (monument, university) is HALTED when you raze a newly acquired city. This is due to the annoying popup build que for a razed city. also cant take screen shots on windows 7:(
