List of changes made to old Civs?

[jblank]

Is there a list of changes made to old Civs to see what was changed with BNW? I know France now has a new unique building (Chateau) but I was wondering if anything else was changed on the old Civs. Thank you.

France: UA: double theme bonuses in the Capital
UI: CHateau

Arabia: UA: longer land trade routes, double religion spread via trade routes

India: Mughal Forts make Tourism instead of gold at Flight

Iroquois: UA addition: caravans use forest & jungle like roads (it extends their range)

France has only that in their ua, or did they keep the +2 culture?

If it's only double theme bonus in the capital, it's only suited for culture victory and the worst UA ever, as it also only works in the capital and the bonus hardly seems too impressive for one coming so late in the game.

But I didn't play it, unfortunately. 12th, come faster...

The +2 culture per city per turn until Steam Power is gone. It is a whole new UA. It's called City of Light. Yes, it's fairly restrictive towards cultural victory, but at least you could go tall and plow through a bunch of social policies and tenets with it and the Chateaux.

What does the chateau improvement do?

What does the chateau improvement do?

Chateau
Technology: Chivalry
Yield: +2 culture and +2 gold, with additional culture (+1) and gold(+2) after researching Flight. Confers a 50% defense bonus. Must be built next to a luxury resource. Cannot be built adjacent to another Chateau. A Hotel adds 50% of the Culture from the Chateau to the city as Tourism.

What does the Chateau replace? The fort?

Unique Improvements don't replace anything. That's only unique buildings and unique units that do that.

Thank you. I am assuming that is all of them?

I've only skimmed through the menu. It's all that I noticed.

The change they did to the German UA was pretty surprising.

 

[Giskler]

There's no other changes besides the ones listed.

I think he's trying to say that the surprise was that Germany wasn't changed...

Yea, but sarcasm doesn't always translate too well in text so better shoot it down before there's a thread about the new German UA
