If you could ask one specific question, what would it be?

[werothegreat]

What does the Caravansary do, and would I be correct in assuming that the East India Company is its associated National Wonder?

 

[VermelhoRed]

I have some questions, if you can answer please do.

1- Can we expect to see something about the unrevealed civs by mid-june?

2- Was the presence of the tomahawk unit in that old screenshot intentional, or was it a mistake?

3- In fact, anything that you could tell us about the tomahawk would be great.

4- Could you elaborate and/or show screenshots of Indonesia's ability?

5- Are there going to be any non-Indonesian new luxuries? Or any new bonus resources?

1. Are there any ideology specific wonders in the game?

2. Are there wonders called "Prora" or "Motherland calls" in the game?

3. What are the new buildings/wonders/units on the flight and on the radar?

 

[Rolaran]

What are the dates (by real-world chronology) of the oldest Great Works of Art, Music, and Writing in the game? What are the newest?

Is France the only "old" Civ that has been revamped or are there changes to other Civs as well? If so, would you mind sharing or hinting at any of these changes?

That is something I'm also very keen to hear about.

I would like to ask "Any improvements to the Espionage system?"

Are the Piety and Rationalism trees still mutually exclusive?

 

[Veras]

There will be World Wonders exclusive to Social Policies Trees?

 

[Seek]

There will be World Wonders exclusive to Social Policies Trees?

We already know the answer is "yes" for this.

I'm still wondering this: why pick Darius II when they could've picked Darius I, or better yet, Cyrus the Great?

What are you talking about? The Leader of Persia IS Darius I - what made you think otherwise?

 

[Eagle Pursuit]

I have some questions about city flipping:

At what level of discontent do cities start flipping to a rival civ?

Those contentedness levels appear to reflect empire-wide discontent. How is the city to be flipped chosen?

You can have a dominant culture from a different continent. Can you flip a city from far away or does it have to be adjacent?

 

[Veras]

We already know the answer is "yes" for this.

Well, I didn't, and that's why I asked. But thanks.

Don't you mean, why did they pick Montezuma I for Civ V after having Montezuma II for all the other civ games?

 

[Seek]

Well, I didn't, and that's why I asked. But thanks.

I didn't mean to sound demeaning, it's just that there's a sticky titled "What We Know About Brave New World" at the top of the forum.

Monty I is a better choice. Monty II is better known, but he's known for getting kidnapped by the Spanish and watching his empire fall.

Monty I is a better choice. Monty II is better known, but he's known for getting kidnapped by the Spanish and watching his empire fall.

Having first brought it to the height of it's power. Many of the historical accounts are quite unkind to him, but before the arrival of the Spanish he had brought his Empire to the greatest extent in it's history and the height of it's power. He's not just well known, but there is reason to think he actually was quite a good leader in his time. Of course, the Spanish are known for their known for their non-biased accounts of enemy leaders, particularly ones who don't convert the moment they see them riding in.

do the next two unannounced civ fall alphabetically between Portugal and (the) Zulus

Will there be any random events in BNW like in Civ4? One of the few things I miss from that civ version. There's nothing like a volcano spewing deadly fumes and lava over your single city...

No, and thank whatever deity one may or may not hold dear for that.
