As a player who enjoys fighting my way slowly across huge Pangea maps against the maximum number of Civs, corruption is always a killer with the huge number of cities I build.

I would like to see several new Small Wonders included in the new expansion, each with the same characteristics as the Forbidden Palace.

They could be named in a similar way to the FP; perhaps The White House (or maybe The Capitol), The Houses of Parliment, The Kremlin etc, with one becoming available in the middle of each of the last 3 eras.

This would need a bit of balancing to ensure that it doesn't significantly change play on smaller maps or disadvantage the AI; perhaps they could be keyed to only trigger on the larger map sizes.

I'll leave my thoughts for others to ponder.

Cheers

I've used the editor to increase the number of Fordibben Palaces allowed. I've keyed the three extra Palaces to techs early in each of the last three eras, given them the exact same costs and benefits as the Forbidden Palace and give them the following names :

The Most Forbidden Palace
The Not Quite So Forbidden Palace
Caesar's Palace

It would be simple enough to have a different set of rules for different sized maps with a varying number of FPs. I've found (in my limited experience, around 10 games with this setup) that the AI is just as proficient at placing the extra palaces as it is at placing the FP.
 
Heh, I simply add a letter to the next palace name, starting with B.
