One of the 7 wonders of ancient world...
In the first list of 7 ancient wonders (2nd century b.c.) were no lighthouse of pharos. Instead Antipatros of Sidon listed the Walls of Bablon. Later it got destroyed, and were replaced with the Lighthouse.

Some facts:
- It was that big, chariots were able to turn around on top of the wall (up to 30 metres)
- 3 rings of walls
- 18 Kilometres long
- 25-30 metres high
- made of bricks
- build around 600 b.c. by Nebukadnezar

About stats: I don't know yet, does anyone know what happens if you would set "dubble effect of city walls" ? Or does anyone else got a good idea?

Very nice graphic! -- perhaps just give the Wonder itself a high defense value -- in the editor each structure can have a defense; the wall is 50; make this 100??
