Last 2 World Wonders unveiled

[snipperrabbit!!]

The article in JeuxActu list a number of world wonders including :

• Prora beach resort
• International Space Station

I know ISS is listed as a WC item but Prora can very well be the 'Autocracy' WW !

 

[Glassmage]

wow they are really going all out with this vacation tourism thing.

 

[seancolorado]

Prora...really?

 

[True_Candyman]

Prora has got to have a tourism benefit, probably greater for autocratic civs or some such thing.

ISS i believe is a project in the world congress, so im more dubious of this.

 

[moysturfurmer]

& Lake Victoria is a natural wonder

 

[Evie94]

ISS cant be a wonder if its in the WC can it?

Prora? Wow....that sucks....

 

[AriochIV]

Not buying the ISS as a Wonder, when we know it's a World Congress resolution.

There are some new Portugal image assets there though (leaderhead, civ icon, Nau image).

 

[True_Candyman]

It will all depend of how the Prora is supposed to operate in game, but i can't shake the feeling that the palm islands in dubai would have been far more appropriate.

 

[snipperrabbit!!]

Victoria Lake is a new NW also !
Brazilwood Camp produces Dyes !!!!

 

[Heinage]

perhaps prora, rather than being a world wonder, is a project which can be built once you've unlocked a particular policy in the Autocracy ideology.

 

[steveg700]

The International Space Station was mentioned in a previous article as being World Congress project, in the same category as the World Fair and International Games. It provides a science boost (the Fair a culture boost, and the Games a happiness boost.

Of all the beaches in all the world, why a Nazi inspired resort

 

[Gucumatz]

Because I am guessing they wanted an Order, Autocracy, and Freedom based wonder. (See the Motherland calls, Prora, and Statue of Liberty possibly getting a rework)

I highly doubt that ISS is the 9th wonder if World Fair and Games aren't considered so.

Maybe the "Freedom" wonder will be the 9th wonder

Or, all of this is wrong haha and neither Prora, ISS or Victoria are wonders in this case

 

[snipperrabbit!!]

So far, from this source I retain :

PRORA
LAKE VICTORIA
BRAZILWOOD CAMP = DYE

 

[Inhalaattori]

Hmm makes me thing that maybe they brought also Tulips back as a resource for polder.

"Motherland calls" and "Propa" are clearly ideology specific wonders. Statue of liberty is strong candidate for Freedom wonder.

 

[True_Candyman]

Hasn't it already been establish that brazilian camps do not in fact yield dyes as a resource? That was just the context for their inclusion - producing famous red dyes.

 

[janboruta]

I really like this Prora resort. Unusual, a bit surprising, but tied to Autocracy as a policy-specific wonder. I hope its effect is as good as is the surprise.

And the ISS seems to be World Congress-related. I wonder if all the in-game (or at least supporting) civs are going to reap the benefits of it.

 

[Tinker]

That's an.. interesting wonder, but it makes a lot of sense if they're tied to ideologies. Wouldn't that make them more similar to national wonders (like Oxford), though?

 

[TheMarshmallowBear]

... anybody else feels that something is out of place (particulary with the ISS)

I can't help but feel that Prora is.. rather... meh...

I can understand Victoria Lakes, it'd be nice to have an actual Natural Wonder that's not a mountain for once.
