The Interview
(starts at 1 hour and 5 minutes)
Summary
New civs:
- Austria with Maria Theresa
- Ethiopia
Spain will additionally be included.
New UA info:
- Carthage: Can cross mountains. Free harbors in their cities.
- Huns: Raze cities at double speed. Start with Animal Husbandry. +1 production from pastures. Huns UU: A horse archer and a battering ram (spearman replacement).
- The Songhai trait will be changed.
- Austria: Unique Ability allowing you to essentially absorb City-States into empire without conquest (sort of through marriage)
New combat info:
- Destroyers are melee. Battleships are ranged.
- Great Admiral heals surrounding naval units
- Dromon UU for the Byzantines, spits fire
Other things:
- National Intelligence Agency (wonder) gives an extra spy
- Huns steal city names from other civs, and trait name is Scourge of God
- More than one religion can influence cities
- The Naval AI does do amphibious invasions, and it is cold and calculating. It is fast and ferocious when doing so.
- Religious CS will generate faith for you
- SP choices in the end game (e.g. autocracy or order) will influence diplomacy
- In the "Fall of Rome" scenario, if you choose eastern or western roman empire, you get some forced culture so you have to choose policies that are actually negative, so you become less effective throughout the game.
- "Trying to win the game the same way as us" has been removed from G&K as a diplomatic modifier alltogether.
