One of the disappointing things about Civilization 3 is that there were absolutely no new major wonders. My friend was pointing out last week, "Well, there does need to be a limit. Otherwise you are spending your whole game building wonders and nothing else."
Let's hear some of your ideas for new major wonders! Here are mine:
Arc De Triumphe -- (Modern) -- Which was dedicated to the allies in world war I... any civ that has this gets a +20% advantage in defense... and so does its allies!
Circus Maximus -- (Ancient) -- the most famous hippodrome of all time.
*All chariot and calvary units get an extra movement turn.
Castle Neushwanstein -- (Medieval) -- King Ludwig's famous castle and the most often-photographed castle in the world.
* Palace can be moved once every ten turns without cost.
The Hunley -- (Industrial) -- The Civil War submarine was the first submersible craft to score a kill (The USS Houstonic).
* First submarine attack on behalf of building nation attacks at double power.
Taj Mahal -- (Industrial) -- The largest shrine in India.
* Counts as a temple in each city, expires with Theology.
The Alamo -- (Industrial) -- Famous missionary-turned-fortress of revolutionaries that held off a staggering army.
* Cities can still use resource squares if an enemy fortifies on them, defense bonuses to all cities. But uprisings are harder to quell.
The Hague -- (Modern) -- Considered to be the ultimately non-partial tribunal in the world.
* Corruption is dropped by 10% for all nations, 20% for the owning nation.
Liberty Bell -- (Colonial) -- Famous bell from the Philadelphia Town Hall where the Continental Congress met.
* Undefended cities, when attacked, automatically draft (without penalty) a minuteman unit (like musketman unit but weaker) one time.
Nobunga's Pagoda -- (Renessiance) -- Home of one of the most famous usurper-turned-diamyos, Oda Nobunga.
* War weariness can be delayed for a considerable, and increasing, sum per turn.
Prison of Elba -- (Colonial) -- Where Napoleon Bonaparte met his anticlimactic end.
* Enemy Great Leaders may be captured after defeating their army.
Lindbergh's Flight -- (Industrial) -- Charles Lindburg completes the first trans-atlantic flight.
* Range of airborne units increased by one.
Berlin Wall -- (Modern) -- The most tangible example of the Iron Curtian.
* Increased defense against all sabotage units, city may not be spied on.
