We seen conquest of the new world scenario deluxe in some of the advertisements when Brave new world was being made. Then it was cut out.
Yes, but nobody here knows when would it be released, would it be next month after the BNW, after 5 months? after Scramble map packs? who knows? But today what we know is that it would be on the next DLC.We seen conquest of the new world scenario deluxe in some of the advertisements when Brave new world was being made. Then it was cut out.
who knows??? Firaxis got creative minds.Then why is it that bison has been there for months and this has a real name the moment it appeared?

Publishing a deluxe (=final) version of a scenario means they do not intend to add any more mechanics (otherwise you'd want those to be included in the scenario) which I'm totally fine with.
And it's clear that many of the old scenarios will profit a lot of the new mechanics, i.e. trade routes instead of 'treasure ships' for New World. I just hope they won't overdo it with the number of civs and map size as in the Into the Renaissance (which is practically unplayable for me due to being huge AND empty (!)). Maybe they'll have two sizes...
My understanding is a different company, not Firaxis, does the Mac ports. As a result, I see 3 possibilities: 1) The 2nd company wasn't told Firaxis was intentionally hiding the name and screwed up by revealing it.
Any way to compare the file sizes?

Civ5 is polished enough and it only makes sense to update the old scenarios nobody plays anymore (as they're outdated). You end with a polished product you can then sell as a "yes, this one is now really totally complete" edition which doen't take up that many ressources.
I just want them to update 1066: Year of Viking Destiny. Love the scenario, but it's all combat start to finish and so is hurt particularly by how outdated the vanilla combat mechanics now seem (the Samurai Invasion of Korea would have a similar issue).

Doesn't mean either that the Scenario doesn't add content or that "small stuff" is out of the question. I believe the Ancient Mesopotamia Scenario was referenced but that just added wonders, nothing decisive.
I'd also like to point out that someone is complaining that the 1066 is only combat while someone else points to the Civil War scenario turning of gaming system as a reason why scenarios are independent of the main game's mechanics. What now exactly?
I do no think btw. that they'd update a scenario twice, so I still believe contrary to your objections that a deluxe scenario is a sign (! - not proof) that nothing gamechanging will come (unless of course they'll change their opinion once again).

If you haven't played Vanilla, or haven't played it since G&K was released, go back and try it. Everyone talks about religion & spying being added w/ G&K, but I think the largest changes were to the battle system. 100HP instead of 10HP, crossbows upgrading to Gatling guns instead of riflemen, siege units doing less damage to units than to cities, melee ships, removal of the city garrison button.
