[GS] Gathering Storm Screenshots Discussion Thread

Favors are gained by turn, just like the other buckets. Not per civ.

Upgrading requires strategic resources.

Thank god they're finally including transitional units. Knights into tanks is ridic and it needs to end.

Looks like you can now build improvements in the lands of city state allies...

Looks like there is a new early Great Bath wonder.
Maybe inspired by the Great Bath, Mohenjo-daro

So the wonder that has been driving us nuts has been identified.

Edit: Great Bath

 

[Turrdy]

btw in the same screenshot there's a new unit in the background:

is this the standard horseman or something else? (I don't remember horsemen having shields oin their back...)

so I guess that unit must be the Courser which the Black Army replaces...

Chocolate mountains can be seen in the Hungary first look video at 1:36.

Looks like China got a new colour scheme.

I assumed the red and yellow civ on the map were Spain but it turns out they were the Chinese.
Also, the cities show up as circles now
.

The tiles also have new icons that seem to show whether they are at risk of any natural disasters, and the magnitude of the hazard.

I assumed the red and yellow civ on the map were Spain but it turns out they were the Chinese.

That means we cannot derive any new civ from minimap colors. It could be an old one with a differnt scheme...

Skirmishers in the background.

Edit: Bit hard to tell, but the guy on the right in brown/green matches with the mystery archers:

[Eagle Pursuit]

So it loses the Rainforest science.

 

[Giskler]

As suspected, war weariness is still a thing.

Looks like China got a new colour scheme.

This is the jersey system in effect. In the first gameplay video they had their green colours, in this one I assume they got changed to Spains colours because Hungary has a similar green base.

 

[Giskler]

Unless I'm mistaken, this is a new variation on the swordsman.

 

[Giskler]

New icon (?)

 

[SammyKhalifa]

That's a small but welcome change for the harbor.
