    Weclome! ACS is proud to present the first part of its comprehensive preview of C:CTP. To get the ball rolling, we thought it might be useful to run-down the list of wonders (especially with the recent postings of some of the movies, and the heated discussion that ensued) with their function(s) and a still from each! DanQ has compiled this information and has broken into a alphabetical listing spread over several pages. Expect more parts of our preview to pop up over the next couple of weeks as we inch towards CTP's public release. One thing we would like to point out, however, is that we have been informed by Activision that any of the wonders and/or its benefits are still subject to change.

      Civilization: Call to Power© is looking to usher in the next era of world-building strategy games.

      by Martin Gühmann
      This page will explore the key features of Civilization: Call to Power and help to explain each in more detail. (Copied from an EBWorld newsletter)

      The overall feature set is as follows:
      * Longer Timeline
      * Gorgeous 16-bit Graphics
      * Undersea and Space Colonization
      * Unconventional Warfare Strategies
      * Multiplayer Support
      * New Units, Buildings, and Advances
      * Streamlined Interface
      * Editing Tools

      Longer Timeline

      Why is this cool? 1. Previous Civilization games ended in 2020 AD. There was no opportunity to incorporate futuristic science fiction technologies into the game. Civ:CTP includes a wide variety of technological advances that draw from popular science-fiction books and films, including cryogenics, mind control, and zero-emission vehicles. All of these advancements bring new elements to gameplay. 2. Previous Civ games stagnated near the end because of a lack of new technologies. Civ:CTP's expanded timeline and futuristic technologies ensure that the game st...
