Wonders in Civ V: Modern and Future

[Optimizer]

So, here is the final wonder poll.

So, here is the final wonder poll.

Is that Bauhaus the school of architecture or Bauhaus the band ?

 

[Optimizer]

Here, Bauhaus means the school of architecture. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bauhaus

There is also a home improvement retailer named Bauhaus, but I was not thinking of that one either.

You'll probably recognize me as an Alpha Centauri player right away with this one, but how about The Human Genome Project?

And what about Underwater research domes?

I was just envisioning Goth Music as a tech you can develop once you have Rock'n'Roll, which allowed you to build the Bauhaus-the-band wonder; then you pick six cities for tour dates, and for the next six turns, in whichever city they are playing that turn, all the unhappy people become happy.

I know, it's silly.

Rys, that's actually a pretty good idea.

I voted for several options, including the one for

-Bellagio Fountains: for those who don't know what are they, they're the SUPER ELABORATE fountains that adorn the hotel of the same name, in Las Vegas. I propose it has the following traits: +1 per aqueduct (all cities), +2 per aqueduct (all cities), +6 on the city possesing it. It requires mass media, plastics, aqueduct, computers, & it costs 1000 on Normal speed. It will provide +2 for Great Artist. For those who want to know more, check this link: http://www.bellagio.com/amenities/fountains-of-bellagio.aspx

-LHC (Large Hadron Collider): Here I include a description of what I think it this world wonder would do. It would be a late-modern to early-future era wonder. This is what it makes: ALL labs of the possessing civ will research another 25% faster, the city with the wonder will gain 2 free engineers & 2 free scientists. It'll also provide a +4 bonus (for all the superstition it arose among ignorant & fatalist people due to its inauguration). Its prerequisite techs would be fusion, composites & superconductors; & its production cost would be the same of the Three Gorges Dam (1750 on Normal speed). Having it would be a nice add-up to a GP farm, as well as a nice research boost in the late era, a boost especially useful in games with a good amount of futuristic techs (i.e. Next War mod). It will provide +2 for Great Scientist.

So this game is going to have a "future" era with cloaking type technologies or is kind of like late 20th century?

Human Genome Project++
This is a major technological development of recent times.

How about the first High Speed Train? We could make it the British HST.

 

[Silurian]

The British HST only goes 125/140 mph.

The bullet train goes 186
or the TGV

Aye, but the HST was the firs...wait.

Yes, maybe it should be the Bullet Train.

 

[Carver]

Who are the eleven people who ticked the Palm Islands?

...monstrosities.

 

[Zenon_pt]

Sydney Opera House!!!!

The Cristo Redendor (Rio de Janeiro) and The Sagrada Familia (Barcelona), would be fun also!

I'm surprised the Burj Dubai has gotten so few votes, considering it's the tallest structure ever built.
