Statue of Liberty - good time saver, not having to go around and upgrade everything (by now, I already have an economy that the tech costs dont affect much).

Terra Cotta Army: Speaks for itself

Colossus: Good for early wars, the +50 helps a lot.

Which civ's wonders are these?? :confused:

Any civ can build these wonders.
 
Colosseum-- watch those borders just fly across the map+attrition and cheaper forts.
Supercollider-- instant research!
Space program-- I see you!!

Sorry for breaking the rules but i love the information age. :D
 
Instead of 3, i just love 2 of them, the "must haves" wonders of RoN:
terra cotta - helps in midgame warfares, too bad civ3 doesn't have such a feature
Versailles - save alot of resources if u can heal troops as they fight

I can live with just these 2 wonders, Feels like resigning if i lost them or beaten to it by my opponents....

heres "Good to have" depending on how the game progresses:
space program - it would be a "must have" if it can be made accessible much earlier
Colossus - if its civ3, it would be a "must have"
super collider - again, too late in the game, often its effects are no longer much useful
Liberty - if i have spare resources

I hardly built other wonders before...
 
I have to say:
Terracota army-free units own, though they sometimes mess up my plans with other units...
Colossus-increases population limit...
Space program- it help very much if you can see the whole world map
 
Supercollider: I usually build it before the last four researches in the library.
Terra Cotta Army: Free troops are good, because I don't consciously keep my military buildup
Versaille: Reduce the research cost.

Colossus if I play a low population game. and Statue of liberty if I play rush games.
 
some calculation about the Terra Cotta Army

the formula is turth only if you build no infantry.

Let you gain (n+1)LI form TCA for total all. Then in an hour:
30+(30+0.5)+(30+1)+(30+1.5)+……+(30+0.5n)=3600
n=73.44
So you can only gain 74 free LI, IF YOU BUILD NO INFANTRY.

I'm not so much of an attacker as I am a defender (God, I can'ty believe I uninstalled this tosave space! now I wanna play again!) I still like Terra Cotta to buildup a defense force while still not spending anything on an armed force. The Effel Tower is great and the Space Program for a buildup to a nuclear war. whee!
 
What I don't understand is why the Taj Mahal is so late, it was built in the Gunpowder Age -_-
 
Not sure what they all do, but oh well.
BTW< I'm going to totally ignore that statement about teh consecutive ages :P

And, teh winners are...
The Terra Cotta Army
The Palace of Versailes
THe Statue of Liberty
