- Switch from squares to hexagons changing the way the game plays. More room for maneuvers and more tactical options.
- Changes to combat. More depth in combat, no more stacking of units. This will lead to bigger focus on terrain.
- Inspired by Panzer General.
- Reintroduction of Bombardment, now archers and siege equipment can shoot over melee units.
- Better diplomatic AI.
- More diplomatic options between players.
- Less "cheating" AI.
- Religion is not a factor anymore. :(
- Ressources are not infinite. For example one source of horse only supplies enough horses for 1 unit, but when that horseman dies the horses will respawn as a unit. (this confused me alittle, i guess we will have to watch it in action)
- City States as a sort of small countries that never develop beyond their single city. They can provide bonusses if you befriend them, or you can take over their land.
- Civics are out, now there is something called "Social Policies".
- About the same amount of wonders, the tech tree will feel familiar. Great People still in.
- Some victory conditions changed. For example in Conquest you only have to capture all the other capitals. Eliminates boring mop up phase.
- Unique Civ leader bonusses, no more standard "Spiritual" or "Financial".
- DirectX 11 support.
- Built in webbrowser. Sid Meier is also working on a facebook application of Civilization.


Now What i see here that interest me is:
1:"Social Policies"
2:City States
3:Civictree (yes not a tectree but a civictree too(I fund a Quot which i cant find now but i will continue looking for it)


What do you think ??
 
Very much a fan of city states, as I have an affinity for idiotically tiny countries such as San Marino, Monaco, Liechtenstein and Andorra.
 
-CITY STATES!!!!!!!!! a dream come true! :woohoo:
-Social Policies? What that?
-Civic tree sounds awesome
-And poor religions are gone... i really loved them. :cry:
