This wouldn't be a bad idea at all, I'm inclined to think. They are so utterly mega-devastating that it seems only fair to give some kind of chance of averting them and/or alerting you to the fact that someone is trying to create one. As opposed to currently when I can only sit around in abject fear and wait for eventual Doom and Destruction (tm). Now, granted, I realize the Apocalypse is meant to occur and thus making it possible to stop it might be counter to that purpose.. I'd still personally like to be given a chance to do so. If someone is about to hit a cultural victory you usually know it's close to happening, and you can try to stop it. But you get no such chance with the mega-devastating rituals and whatnot. Granted, they don't end the game either, but damn near so in some cases.. ^^
Also, how about messages when a hero dies? After all, if I know the.. I dunno.. Calabim are a big nasty Veil worshipping civilization with Rosier the Fallen, Losha Valas and Mardero I might be a lot less inclined to fight them than if I know they have none of those any more. The death of a great hero after all would seem pretty big news to me. Or at least maybe a notification when a national hero dies, ie "Civilization X has built the Shrine of the Champion" like you get for a World Wonder, even though the Shrine isn't one. Possible? Either way, just a thought.
Cheers!
