Never before seen wonders II - Elimination Thread

[Guatenadian]

Château Frontenac - 21
Dhammayangyi Temple - 11
Etemenanki - 24 (23+1) You know, I was hesitant at first about a Ziggurat Wonder, but it would be very interesting addition.
Krak des Chevaliers - 22
Naqsh-e Rustam -17 (20-3) Make no mistake this is absolutely wonder material and is worthy of representation but choices are getting harder, especially since the Palacio de Bellas Artes and Dhammayangyi Temple are already on the way out.
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 11
Swayambhunath - 21

@Guandao I say go for it. Some questions though, would you do it on this thread or start a new one? How would you choose the wonders involved?

Château Frontenac - 18 (21-3) Choices are getting tougher, and I personally prefer earlier wonders.
Dhammayangyi Temple - 11
Etemenanki - 24
Krak des Chevaliers - 23 (22+1) It lost too many points for a winner.
Naqsh-e Rustam - 17
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 11
Swayambhunath - 21

 

[conorbebe]

Château Frontenac - 18
Dhammayangyi Temple - 12 (11 + 1) The best-looking structure in the running in my opinion.
Etemenanki - 24
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 14 (17 - 3) Doesn't captivate me.
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 11
Swayambhunath - 21

 

[Xandinho]

Château Frontenac - 18
Dhammayangyi Temple - 12
Etemenanki - 24 - 3 = 21 Good choice for a second wonder of Babylon. But I think Naqsh-e Rustam is more significant as an ancient wonder. And we already have Ziggurats in the game. For me, it is not enough priority to lead.
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 14 + 1 = 15 Persia took a long time to have one of its wonders in the game. The Naqsh-e Rustam may represent the ancient Zoroastrianism of the Achaemenid Empire.
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 11
Swayambhunath - 21

I was thinking of compiling a list of every possible choice for Wonders in Civ6 (both new and veteran wonders). Should I do that?

It would be interesting, I think we have many good names to suggest.

Château Frontenac - 18
Dhammayangyi Temple - 12
Etemenanki - 21+1=22 - Sure, we have ziggurats, but only as tiny UU for Sumer. I want ziggurat wonder. Either this or the Ziggurat of Ur.
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 15
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 11-3=8 - I don't think it's as astonishing as the other places here.
Swayambhunath - 21

@Guandao I say go for it. Some questions though, would you do it on this thread or start a new one? How would you choose the wonders involved?

I will start a new thread for that. My methods will consist of looking up World Heritage Sites (and tentative ones), looking through my books about wonders, and adding the suggestions of other posters.

Château Frontenac - 18
Dhammayangyi Temple - 12
Etemenanki -22
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - (15+1)=16 It's an interesting wonder for me (a lot of ancient Persian art is rock-cut). Maybe Persia does deserve a second one. Arch of Ctesiphon is a another nice possible Persian wonder.
Palacio de Bellas Artes - (8-3)=5 It's a cultural wonder, but I don't think representing Spanish America with a wonder is a priority.
Swayambhunath - 21

 

[Xandinho]

Château Frontenac - 18 - 3 = 15 It is a great choice for a Canadian wonder, and a good choice for Hotel wonder. But as the Palacio de Bellas Artes is falling, I think this must fall too, I do not think this is much more significant than the Mexican theater.
Dhammayangyi Temple - 12
Etemenanki -22
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 16 + 1 = 17 Perhaps, the most significant structure of the list.
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 5
Swayambhunath - 21

 

[Kimiimaro]

Château Frontenac - 15
Dhammayangyi Temple - 12
Etemenanki - 22+1=23 - A ziggurat wonder would make a really good addition.
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 17
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 5-3=2 - The least interesting thing on this list.
Swayambhunath - 21

 

[Siptah]

Château Frontenac - 15
Dhammayangyi Temple - 12
Etemenanki - 20 (23-3) I'm not too convinced of the need for a Ziggurat wonder and choices are getting tougher.
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 17
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 2
Swayambhunath - 22 (21+1) personal favorite and it would look great in civ VI's art style.

Château Frontenac - 15
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13 (12 + 1)
Etemenanki - 20
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 14 (17 - 3)
Palacio de Bellas Artes - 2
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Guandao]

Château Frontenac - 15
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 20
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - (14+1)=15 It deserves to hang on a bit longer.
Palacio de Bellas Artes - (2-3)=0 Eliminated! A decent wonder choice for Mexico, but I'm less excited for its appearance.
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Guatenadian]

Château Frontenac - 16 (15+1) I will support this until the end.
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 20
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 12 (15-3) Very interesting, but choices are tough.
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Xandinho]

Château Frontenac - 16 - 3 = 13 Although it is interesting, this is least significant on the list.
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 20
Krak des Chevaliers - 23
Naqsh-e Rustam - 12 + 1 = 13 More significant on the list.
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Kimiimaro]

Château Frontenac - 13
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 20+1=21 - I want a ziggurat wonder in game, and this is a great option.
Krak des Chevaliers - 23-3=20 - I'd love to see more castles in game, but with Alhambra already serving as a castle/fort wonder, I don't think it should lead
Naqsh-e Rustam - 13
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Guandao]

Château Frontenac - 13
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 21
Krak des Chevaliers - (20-3)=17 I'm not fond of castle wonders, especially the plain looking ones.
Naqsh-e Rustam - (13+1)=14 I think it should last a bit longer.
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Guatenadian]

Château Frontenac - 14 (13+1) Supporting till the end.
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 21
Krak des Chevaliers - 17
Naqsh-e Rustam - 11 (14-3) This is a race to the bottom for everyone.
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Xandinho]

Château Frontenac - 14 - 3 = 11 It is a worthy wonder, it would be an interesting inclusion as hotel wonder oriented for cultural victory. But it is no more significant than Naqsh-e Rustam.
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 21
Krak des Chevaliers - 17
Naqsh-e Rustam - 11 + 1 = 12 Very significant, its importance can not be neglected. It is a very important site of ancient Zoroastrianism.
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Kimiimaro]

Château Frontenac - 11
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 21+1=22 - I need a ziggurat wonder in game. Either this or the Ziggurat of Ur.
Krak des Chevaliers - 17
Naqsh-e Rustam - 12-3=9 - Well, we already have Apadana serving as an Achaemenid wonder. I wouldn't mind seeing it, it was surely important, but I can wait for it...
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[XVeris]

Château Frontenac - 12 (11 + 1) - It's hard to pick at this point. I'll back Guatenadian's Canadianism.
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 22
Krak des Chevaliers - 17
Naqsh-e Rustam - 6 (9 - 3) - Like I said, hard to pick, but this one is quite low, and we already have a Wonder from the area. Something has to be culled at one point.
Swayambhunath - 22

 

[Guandao]

Château Frontenac - 12
Dhammayangyi Temple - 13
Etemenanki - 22
Krak des Chevaliers - (17-3)=14 Not an attractive castle, so I'm less interested in it.
Naqsh-e Rustam - (6+1)=7 My last vote for this wonder.
Swayambhunath - 22
