The Wonder List

[Zyxpsilon]

CN Tower; Unlocked at Mass Media, +5 in this City... +10% Global Output... +2GE... must be built in a city which has a Lake nearby & a Stadium.

Channel Tunnel; Unlocked at Stealth, Lowers cost of Road+Railroads maintenance by 75%... +10... +3GM... must be built in a coastal city that has both an Harbor and a Seaport.

Heh, I don't think American Idol or similar shows have produced anyone that will be recognized as a Great Artist 500 years from now.

 

[Ballza]

I want the beautiful Parthenon back.

 

[black213]

Parthenon: Unlocked at Writing. +25% , +1 per Specialist in City where built. +2 Merchant.

Reason why I made it base on gold is because Parthenon was used as a storage for gold.

 

[Moriboe]

The Registan: +20% income, +4 , requires plains.

Opens up Machu Picchu for other effects.

 

[Scilly_guy]

Cern - +5 +2 great scientist points
World Trade Centre - All trade routes globally +50%, +2 Great Merchant points, +10 base

 

[Camikaze]

I like the idea of having the Panama Canal as a wonder, but not with +200% bonus as listed in the OP. That would be massively overpowered. I think instead it could be like a super-improvement, allowing movement of ships over, maybe, two land tiles from one ocean to another, with a bonus as well.

 

[Bowsling]

What?

 

[Terrance888]

Silicon Valley
+ Great Scientist or Great Artist Slot
+ 10% Science, - 10% Modern Building costs, + 10% Culture
+ 5% culture and science civ wide

 

[awesome]

forest spiral: +20 culture (or maybe less), great engineer slot, requires mass media
golden gate bridge: +2 trade routes in all cities, great merchant slot, requires combustion
delta works: +100% hammers, so basically half of the original idea for the panama canal, great engineer slot, requires steam power
imperial archives:
and just to throw poland a bone
zamosc fortress: 25% faster production of military units, great general slot, requires chivalry

 

[Terrance888]

(sorry, I meant that it lets you put in a specialist )

The Grand Canal (ala China)
No Maintainance road built from your capital to all your cities.
+ 25% trade income.
+ 1 food per trade route

 

[awesome]

i just realized i left imperial archives blank, so let's say that one gets you cheaper maintenance or something. maybe it could even just be a national wonder.

 

[Proximus]

Here are some ideas I've gathered. Sorry if they're repeats:

I don't trust my judgment when it comes to balance, so I'll leave counters up to someone else.

- Hollywood: +8 Culture, +2 Gold, +2 Happiness

- Burj Khalifa

- The Great Sphinx

- The Gateway Arch

- The Petronas Towers

- Mount Rushmore

- The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus

- Dome of the Rock

- The Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa

- The Leaning Tower of Pisa

- The Parthenon

- International Space Station (after Satellites)


Also, natural wonders:

- Petra (Not natural, but neither is El Dorado)

- The Grand Canyon (desert only)

- Mount Everest

- Angel Falls

- Ross Ice Shelf

- Cliffs of Moher

- Aurora Borealis (tundra only)

 

[Pouakai]

- Burj Khalifa

- The Great Sphinx

- The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus

- The Parthenon

These are ingame via mods, as are Panama Canal, all other 7 ancient wonders, Blue Mosque, and Three Gorges Dam

 

[Namaspamus]

They could bring back Easter Island statues, it's a nice one.

 

[awesome]

there's a polynesian civ now with those as its unique improvement

 

[Pouakai]

There was a Siamese civ with Wat as a UB, yet Angkor Wat was a wonder.

 

[Save_Ferris]

Arc du Triomphe: 20% military defense inside borders
The Colosseum: +10 happiness
Alaskan Pipeline: 2x oil resources on this continent
Transcontinental Railroad:All roads extending from the city become railroads, free of matinence

 

[Namaspamus]

Ups, missed that.

There was a Siamese civ with Wat as a UB, yet Angkor Wat was a wonder.

True. Would be nice if the Polynesian civ had another UB and Easter Island statues became a world wonder. It really looks like a world wonder.

---------

And I know there are issues about this idea but giving wonders their own tile could help make them wonderful. Mt Rushmoor or Parthenon would require a hill, a river for the Dam and we would see the lake, etc... This would give them more visibility, and they could have a good tile yield.

 

[Proximus]

Nice list guys. What about Hollywood, the Gateway Arch, Angel Falls, Global Positioning System, Space Station or Lunar Base?

Also, OP's list contains Sphinx twice. Just sayin.
