Civ-Specific National Wonders

[snipperrabbit!!]

I've posted some ideas about unique national wonders in Kristopherb's bank of ideas.

Gaius, did you plan to continue on this?

 

[Gaius Octavius]

I do, indeed. Several of us were discussing this in the RFC forum for implementation there. http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=212365
I am still working on getting a good list for each civ, and preferably artwork too, but that's harder to come by. We still aren't sure whether it would be better to implement unique names/art only, or actually change the effects for each civ's NWs. It has lots of possibilities.

Just so I know if it is worth it to update my Ethnic Wonders mod or only my Diverse Citystyles mod.

In case you didn't know, hrochland released some new stuff for the Incans and Vikings.

Wouldn't the White House work better for America's Palace?

Great Idea, BTW. I was just thinking that it would be cool if some things like the Jefferson Memorial, Washington Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Capitol Hill, and the White House were included as buildings in Civ for America. Then the Arc de Triumph was the next thing to pop in my head once I realized you would have to do this with all the civs in the game.

Here's my Suggestion

Germany
Globe Theatre - Bayreuth Festspielhaus
Scotland Yard - Abwehr
West Point - Großer Generalstab

Russia
Forbidden Palace - Winter Palace
Heroic Epic - The Motherland Calls
West Point - Frunze Military Academy (its located in Central Asia, but it was a Russian school)
Globe Theatre - Bolshoi Theatre
Oxford University - Moscow State University

Japan
Heroic Epic - Yasukuni Shrine
Palace - Kyoto Gosho
Forbidden City - Edo Castle

Thanks for the suggestions, Park. I'll have to wait until after BtS to implement this (finally!) because one of the new features is "custom art for each civ" so you can have civ-specific unit graphics without having to add them all individually in XML. I'm hoping a similar thing will work for buildings.

Yes, but in this case, you're looking to add new names along with them... so it would kind of require that they all have their own separate XMLs.

I hadn't seen this thread until now, so here's my two cents... I think civ-specific national wonders for all current national wonders is excessive, but civ-specific Forbidden Palaces seems like a good option... this is the one I plan to implement.
