Favorite wonder

[amit9up]

I know there is no must-have wonder. But which ones do u like the most

 

[damnation]

I <3 stonehenge because I hate all the hammers spent to build up obilisks. Unless I'm Creative, which I rarely am.

The Hanging Gardens, I need every health bonus I can get. The Great Engineer points are icing on the cake.

I have to admit the Taj Mahal/Mausoleum combo is sweet to pull off.

Although I have many favorites if I go by era, the one that first comes to mind is Pyramids.

Actually if you're going to run an SE, the Pyramids are a must have wonder. But I don't run an SE, so I almost ever build the Mids, cause they're way too expensive imo.

It was tough choosing between The Pyramids, Stonehenge, The Great Lighthouse and The Great Library.

I choose the last because it's always useful for both beakers and getting a great scientist. It's also pretty easy to get and I do in almost every game. Stonehenge is very handy if you're not creative but not necessary and I've been learning to live without the Pyramids, especially since I'm fonder of cottages than specialists. The Great Lighthouse is also very useful if there's lot of coastal sites but I don't get it very often. The poll is on what's my favourite wonder after all.

The Great Library, immortal+.

@ormur

You could choose all four, its a multiple choice poll.

 

[Eat_Up_Martha]

Great Wall, just for the Great Spy points.

Ah, too late, missed the plural there.

 

[Jamuka]

UN and AP since the poll doesnt have an 'i dont build wonders' option

The Great Library is huge especially on higher difficulty. Also people underestimate the Spiral Minaret, it seems. That extra gold per temple/monastery funds a lot of units and research.

stonehedge. i like the idea of, build a city and forget the culture. it'll kick in in 15 turns.
set it and forget it. and quick priest too.

Rock n Roll???

or Broadway???

or Hollywood???

My all time favorite is rock n roll...

 

[Iranon]

The Kremlin. It allows me to build my entire economy around it, and it isn't an early resource hog that requires extreme concessions.

 

[TheMeInTeam]

AP edges out UN. No other wonder has the LITERAL game-breaking potential of the apostolic palace. Combined with espionage, it can also be used to turn the world upside-down diplomatically...especially with spiritual civs the potential is quite crazy. Forced city flips, mass war declarations, etc. But, if those aren't possible, then you always have the ability to fall back on just WINNING with it outright . The only other wonder that can win the game for you outright is the UN, but while the restrictions for winning AP are tighter, they come earlier and tend to be easier to attain if you're good at planning.

Cristo redentor not here ?!. Don't build much wonders but if i can get my hands on that one i do so.
There is a difference between what i'd want and what i can get. GLH is on average probably the most powerful wonder, the one i build most is GL, sometimes with Parthenon.

liberalism before liberalism. a religion without a religion.
Expensive, late, and, the superior.

This pole is so useless, I can't even find the mighty chicken pizza.

 

[Yamps]

Why Oracle isn't on the list?!

From the above, GLH.
