Pretty sure it's always been a leaf civic.The 'commerce' government is a leaf tech now. I think thats new? Couldnt find it in the changelog.
It's certainly a nerf to settler spam, but unlikely to be enough to cause players to migrate en masse to domination-oriented expansion strategies.
- Added Restart button to regenerate the map
- Added the saving of game setup configurations to reuse when starting future games
Combine that with the new nuclear war messages and the new CS UI upgrades and it seems to me that we got some buggy features from the expansion.
Spoiler everybody: diplomacy is being focused on for the first expansion. I see a new victory condition on the horizon.
So the beginning game is still a barb fest? Where you'll be at turn 12 and have four barbs in your territory?
And the CS's still crank out ridiculous amounts of units?
How hard could it be to fix that stuff?
It appears the Colonization policy card (+50% Production toward Settlers.) now works properly. Before I could have 18 turns for a settler to be done, and that Colonization would only bring it down to 13 or 14 turns. Now it brings it down to 9 turns.
The font changes are definitely a bug. They don't resize properly in windowed mode and generally provide too little negative space on the diplo buttons.
The old Acropolis was one of the biggest balance issues in the game. Sure, maybe it makes the Greeks as a while a bit stronger, but the old Acropolis was actually worse than the generic theatre districts.

Combat Preview UI has received multiple improvements
IIRC it costs half as much as a normal theatre disctrict, with the only drawback being that you had to build it on a hill which isn't realistically much of a drawback. Is there something else im missing?
With production being so valuable, anything that competes for a hill better be worth it. And theater districts are already so niche.
Well there never worth it in the first place if your just trying to win, my point was more why are you buffing one of the best civs, even if it is mostly irrelevant.
So did they ever fix the issue with France, where she disliked you for having no spies.....even though she didn't have any yet herself?
This is enough to get me playing again.
