1. America - Film Studio [4] (7-3) ditto. Comes way too late. A culture-focused America is possible, but takes a lot of early game planning.

43. Sweden - Open-Air Museum [21] just a reminder that this really gives up to +10 culture and tourism
44. Sweden - Queen's Bibliotheque [11] (10+1) This one doesn’t deserve this low ranking. It’s basically an automatic Hermitage, but you can build Hermitage too. This is great for art curator when you run out of slots for great works or archaeology. Both this and the open air museum hit hard when it comes to culture victory. It’s does mean missing out on Grand Masters Chapel, but Sweden is hardly geared for faith generation.

Mekewap: just really good yields, what more can I say.
Stave Church: yes, I am totally going to invest into holy site, shrine and temple as ultra militaristic Norway! In every city! For mediocre bonus!
 
1. America - Film Studio [1] (4-3) comes too late, and requires other civs to be in the modern era to take full effect.
2. Arabia - Madrasa [21]

30. Mongolia - Ordu [17]
31. Norway - Stave Church [ELIMITATED] (2-3) not very strong or synergistic with the civ it’s in.

27. Maori - Marae [23]
29. Mapuche - Chemamull [20]
30. Mongolia - Ordu [17]
33. Ottomans - Grand Bazaar [17] (20-3) Its amenity bonus is nice, but it's not like the Ottomans have amenity problems too much. Better accumulation of resources has an ankward placing in the tech tree, because when you come to it, the biggest need for Nitre (and other resources) should be alleviated with your army on the march. So it comes down to cheaper bank.
34. Persia - Pairidaeza [21]

39. Scotland - Golf Course [17]
41. Spain - Mission [22]
42. Sumeria - Ziggurat [22]
43. Sweden - Open-Air Museum [22] (21+1) This actually gives Sweden a fearsome culture boost, letting them research at the speed of light. Not to mention the tourism and loyalty.

Voting a bit later than usual, hope that's okay.

14. Germany - Hansa [24]
15. Greece - Acropolis [23]
16. Hungary - Thermal Bath [12] (15-3) For all the great things Hungary has to offer this in not one of them. The extra production and amenities does not make up for the fact that entertainment complexes are pretty useless (except 1 for Colosseum) at the moment. Additionally, it comes pretty late in the game and at a stage where you have much more important things to build.

45. Zulu - Ikanda [16] (15+1) Deserves some love. Allows you to build corps at Mercenaries. Sure, it might not be super useful for your mele/cavalry units that get the free upgrade from taking cities, but is amazing for building ranged/siege units corps so early in the game without needing any building. Your catapults struggle to survive? No problem, just get +15 CS catapults instead.

7. China - Great Wall [12] (15 - 3) This is only my second downvote for this...I don't want to be that guy who runs a solitary campaign against something. I am somewhat surprised by how much love it has received, though. An argument was made about how 3 of these in a line slightly outperforms 3 pre-Apprenticeship mines, and well...I will admit it might have some utility if you specifically want that. I still think the placement rules, relatively modest yields, and high requirement for initial investement makes it a weak tile improvement, though. The fact that you need 3 of them or more in a line to make them semi-competitive with basic tile improvements (which can be useful in any number), should be considered a disadvantage.

I guess I am the only one who don't think it's weird to go for Holy Sites as Norway. Seeing how good faith is, I go for Holy Sites as any civ (except Kongo). The Stave Church is certainly not good enough for me to have considered voting for it, but it's inoffensive in the sense that it's an improved version of something I was building anyway, which will give my coastal city something along the lines of 3-6 extra production and 0-2 faith. It's okay.

5. Brazil - Street Carnival / Copacabana [20]
6. Canada - Ice Hockey Rink [17+1] This does come pretty late, but it synergizes well with the civ. The culture bonus is nice but I think the real value comes from the appeal it creates. Very fun to strategically place these around your mountie-created national parks to make them even stronger.

Also: Can we not try to serial downvote the same thing over and over again? It happens in every Elimination game. It tends to skew ratings lower than what they should be and isn't very fun. We get it, you don't like something, just vote once or twice and move on to something else.
 
2. Arabia - Madrasa [21]
3. Australia - Outback Station [22]
5. Brazil - Street Carnival / Copacabana [17] = 20 - 3. These require a bunch of extra production via the project to get great people is little incentive to build them. Especially since I value entertainment districts so little. I'd rather build the regular districts that get me great people with no extra production costs.

@KayAU I don't think the Stave Church is awful or anything, I just think I'd put everything else on the list ahead of it. It probably is better post-coastal buffs, and faith certainly has its uses, but if I'm Norway I'm going all-in on ships (which faith can't buy) and I'm not building Holy Sites until after I build Grand Master's Chapel anyways.

Infrastructure should be rated on these Points:
  • When do it come, early game infrastructure tend to be far better than late game ones since the early game one allow you to snowball into a strong lategame.
  • How good are its effects and yields.
  • How spammable is it.
  • Do it have an opportunity cost and in such case, what is the cost.

17. Inca - Qhapaq Ñan [6 -> 7] Comes early and having tunnels, aka warpgates early can save you alot of unit movement time which mean getting setters in position quicker, moving armies around faster and so on, sure you may not get any direct resources from it but it can still do quite lot in the critical early game.

44. Sweden - Queen's Bibliotheque [11 -> 8] I don't like that I have to be boring but this building is simply one that should recieve a low rating and I can look at the list and say that this one is the one that clearly stands out. You can only get one and that comes at heavy opportunity cost. Its effects is simply not particular good and Sweden do get auto theaming for normal art museums anyway and the extra tourism this one can produce is not particular great. If it actually did something like city produce +100% tourism I could rank it higher but in its current form it is a bottom tier buidling.

17. Inca - Qhapaq Ñan [8] (7+1) Incas will always begin next to mountains, and therefore also hills. This tunnel is most usefull for early colonisation (you can go through that tnnoying mountain range, while other civilization need 10 turns to go around:rolleyes:) and early income (trade routes will have higher rates). With them incas can shift their units from one end of their civ to the other, wich is priceless to respond to surprise wars. Yes, it is the same as other tunnels, but you get them from the start of the game (well, as soon as you get foreign trade, but it is not that long after all)!!!

30. Mongolia - Ordu [14] (17-3) yeah, I know, mongolia likes horses... But with the ram nerf they also need some foot soldiers and/or catapults. So having faster horses (from cities with encampments, and not barracks that is...:rolleyes:) is rather lackluster to say the least...:cry:
