When you have time, can you check out Final frontier and Afterworld. Just some pictures and some comments about how it's played.

Corporation stats (part 2):

Show us colonies!

(**)
can you kindly shows us the screenshots of the new units?

There's a lot of them. It'll take too long. Anything in particular?

how about mobile SAM, attack submarine, and anti-tank, thanks!

 

[Reggie]

Anyone an Idea what the ompetes with entry on Corps means?

(**) Last requests of the night from me -- Khmer Baray and Babylonian Garden please Watiggi? Those two both look rather unimpressive according to previously available info, maybe they hold surprises like the Ziggurat?

At risk of repeating myself, really is tremendous of you to devote this much effort for the information starved community.

I haven't tried ziggurat yet, but the HRE UB that replace courthouse require court of law, so teh courthouse has prob not been pushed back

Watiggi , any indication of how corporation's maintenance is payed? Gold, commerce, added to city maintenance ... thanks.

 

[Antilogic]

That means Sumeria just got another brownie point on my list. What an awesome Civ, with the Vultures for early rushing and the early courthouses to reduce the maintenance of those cities you just captured...they might be the new ultimate early expansion Civ.

Anyone an Idea what the ompetes with entry on Corps means?

I think it means you can't have competing corporations in the same city, since they consume the same resources.

 

[Fraulzar]

According to the BtS tech tree thread generic courthouses still come at CoL. Early courthouse would seem to be one of the benefits of Sumerian UB.

 

[Martinus]

I just saw that! Is the Courthouse pushed back to Priesthood entirely and not Code of Laws (doesn't make much sense to me), or can the Sumerians build their UB Courthouse earlier than other Courthouses?

Rathaus (HRE UB) still requires CoL so I suppose it's the latter.

On other rules changes, has anyone noticed that Monuments/Stonehenge now get obsoleted with Astronomy, not Calendar? This will make Egypt (Obelisk UB) and all Charismatic civs much stronger.

Also, Great Wall now gives Great Spy points rather than Engineer points, so we are back to the good ol' Oracle-MC-Forge slingshot for Pyramids.

I think it means you can't have competing corporations in the same city, since they consume the same resources.

but what if you have multiple of those resources?

 

[Watiggi]

Conquistador, Airship, Anti Tank, Attack Sub, Cataphract: (it's hard doing screenshots of the UU's because their bonuses quite often require scrolling and thus 2 screenshots):

 

[Martinus]

but what if you have multiple of those resources?

The benefits are per resource you have (so, if a corporation gives +1 hammer for silver, it means if you have (3) silver, it will give 3 hammers). Therefore, they compete for the same resource.

 

[Fraulzar]

Ugh! Conquistador needs gunpowder?

 

[Martinus]

*Watiggi, could you post a Corporation entry in Civilopedia (the one about mechanics)? Sorry to bother you but you are our own source of information.

Since there were conflicting messages in the past, I'm unclear whether the corporation bonuses are granted to all cities that have the corporation (and the required resource) or only cities owned by the civ that has the headquarters. If this is the former, then having corporations in your cities (even foreign) may be a good idea.
