Also, as has been noted before, outposts can claim land, but the claim can be contested militarily. Not clear if an outpost in a region claims the whole region?
Multiple cities can contribute to the building of a wonder. I wonder if this will be simply being able to contribute the production of more than one city to the same wonder, or a bit more complicated. (I seem to recall caravans in civ II could contribute to wonder building in another city, but you had to build the caravan in the helping city and move it to the city building the wonder.)
Thanks for the clarification! I was under the impressions that all these infrastructures are called quarters as soon as they appear on the map and take up a tile - like the quarry that we see in a screenshot (or is that not the quarry in the "multiple types of quarters" screenshot).Those are not the quarters, those are the infrastructures. I didn't talk about those in the blog (mostly for lack of visuals), but they are more like the "City Improvements" of Endless Legend or the buildings in Civilization than they are Quarters. These beuildings give benefits to the qhole city and its quarters. (e.g. The wall being, well, a wall in case you get attacked...)
Can we get a breakdown of the standard types of districts soon? Obviously not Emblematic ones yet since you are slowly revealing those by culture, but it would be nice to have kind of a high level overview soon enough. I'm really looking forward to seeing how you expanded on the districts concept from EL."Infrastructure" is a separate gameplay term from "Quarter." That quarry in this art is not the same as that mine you see in the screenshot with several types of Quarters. (Anybody care to guess the Culture in that shot? )
I will provide a more detailed explanation of Infrastructures, possibly with examples, when we take another dive into resources.
I would guess Persia, the building with the flags to the left being the city center. If the ziggurat-like building in the center is the city center, I don't know. I would have guessed that is a wonder.Anybody care to guess the Culture in that shot?
I would really be surprised if one of these others isn't a religious quarter...Here's a partial list of generic Quarters, but keep in mind that all these names are working titles, so they may still be subject to change:
- Farmers Quarter
- Trades Quarter
- Market Quarter
- Research Quarter
- Commons Quarter
- Defense Quarter
- Harbour
- and a few others we are not ready to tell you about yet.
So is trades quarter a collection of workshops and artisans to increase industry by chance? You have a market quarter so I think that would be the big economic quarter, if I'm not wrong.Here's a partial list of generic Quarters, but keep in mind that all these names are working titles, so they may still be subject to change:

That was my assumption. The Market quarter is for selling wares, while the Trades quarter is where the crafters are (blacksmith, farrier, cooper, etc.)So is trades quarter a collection of workshops and artisans to increase industry by chance?

"Harappans" in the case of Humankind refers to the people of the wider Indus Valley Civilisation, also known as the Harappan Civilisation, rather than just from the city of Harappa specifically.I've updated my features thread with everything from this video and the other social posts
