You win by building the world fair. Eiffel Tower feels appropriate for that.

The strange thing is that you can build it 100 years before you host the world fair.

Baroque Friedrich was secretly British!

Lord Elgin, is that you!?

The amount of AI bonuses. (and player penalties)
I edited image so you can see all of the table.

He also confirmed that Deity AI don't have bonus warriors or settlers.

Yes, let's randomly change the names of things to confuse people. It's the Firaxis Way

 

[Alexander's Hetaroi]

Stop it, you might give Firaxis the idea to make Shah Jahan a leader!!! /s

Could they give leaders associated wonders, in the future?

The Eiffel tower is a strange symbol for "I spammed a lot of archaeologists."

Firaxis: Let's make the French diplomatic/militarisistic
Also Firaxis: Let's make Paris the background for the cultural victory.

UI does not show the cost of establish world bank office action?

The cost varies a lot, it was ~100 gold and 6 influence on one occasion. In other case, it was ~3000 gold and 240 influence.

I'm really surprised to see Kolkhoz producing gold instead of food. And it working with city states is quite strange either.

It grants Gold and works with City States because it's Econimic City-State Bonus. The name is really just flavour. But yes it would probably be better as Policy. Maybe they were going for general idea of economy (gold) run by resources shared among more independent members of union (city-states), though then collectivism would probably be better.

It looks like the Fourth Age threads were either moved or deleted, so I'll post this here:

Hopefully the unit models get more fleshed out in the future but we’re on a pretty good track so far.

This is the Great Banker from the Econ Victory

Civ5 to Civ6 is the only time the difficulty levels weren't renamed.

The Fractal map is slightly better that Boxinents+, still a little boxy though

 

[AriochIV]

The French Landships are Renault FT's.

edit: Unfortunately the Prussian Biplanes are still the same Sopwith Camels. The Red Baron is very disappointed.

I’m super stoked for a distinction between WW1 and 2 again, Civ 6 felt soooo weird going from the war of 1812 to 1942 in a single infantry upgrade. Plus GREAT WAR BOMBERS are back.

Assault Gun/AT Gun/Howitzer/Tank

I'm gonna hazard a guess and say:
Assault Gun - Hummel
AT Gun - 3.7cm Pak 36
Howitzer - 10.5 cm leFH 18??
Tank - Panzer IV Ausf. D (or F1)

hard to tell though

I would tend to disagree, and say that’s too fine of a distinction (although partially just unhappy that the 3rd age is just industrial)

 

[AriochIV]

Well, 1812 to 1917 is still a step up from 1812 to 1942.
