That's likely just the scenario; the previous shot of the Great Admiral includes a Golden Age button. However, I have yet to see a Golden Age button on the Great Prophet.I suppose these screenshots are pretty indicative that Great People can't be used to trigger Golden Ages anymore. Unless that would be scenario-exclusive.
That's the icon for a Religious city-state.I wonder what the symbol in Jerusalem means, in the espionage screen.

Copper (and all the other new resources) are luxury resource. Bonus resources don't appear in notifications, and strategic resources a) have an icon on the top bar, and b) have a different notification icon.
That's the icon for a Religious city-state.
It's as much a luxury resource as gold or silver -- they make coins out of it.Copper as a Luxury Resource.. really? It would make much more sense as a second production bonus like Stone.

Really? They're really playing up the 2012 end of the world thing aren't they?
Kind of humourous though.
^ Of course, Gold and Silver have always been historically far more valuable than copper. I personally would love a compromise. Make it a bonus resource that gives a decent amount of gold and lets you build a mint, but don't have it produce happiness. I could also see Forges increasing production of tiles with copper.
Civ4 had Hannibal Barca explaining that he wasn't a cannibal and Julius Caesar talking about salad. They've always had fun with leader dialog. Also, there's Nebuchadnezzar becoming crazy before our very eyes.
I loved Nebuch, he was the LEAST of self-centered leaders, he was the only one that knew you were on the same level as him.. though bit weird... but you had Catherine and Pachacuti calling you lesser civilization.
Pacal... don't say that to Gucumatz, or you'll fulfill your own prophecy.

What does the Mayan icon stand for?
The Article says at the bottom that the AI doesn't seem to be too different from Vanilla when it comes to Diplomacy (forgiveness, trade, etc.) It might just be a bad translation, but it seems that's what it says.

There was somebody who spoke Czech here, he could have insight, as far as I recall he said the article seemed like it was written by a 15 year old :/
