I wonder if this is accurate: "Of course, each religion will have its good and bad sides, allowing you to intensify your style of play as well as to convert other cities to your religion through missionaries."

There are a couple of other strange or plain incorrect statements in that article, such as "Every nation will feature two playable leaders" (only some do), "the pollution has been replaced by health status present in your city, which is regulated by balancing food types" (I think that's just a really awkward way of saying that food resources such as Rice or Bananas give a Health bonus), "It is also possible to introduce some sort of a 'Golden Age' in your city" (last time I checked a Golden Age was a global thing, not a city event), etc.
The author just attended a "press presentation" (presumably he saw the game demoed at E3), so he didn't actually get to play it first hand. The statement you quoted seems to imply that each religion will have its own unique bonuses, which we know is not true. Since he's not very specific about what kind of "bad sides" religion would have or how it "intensifies" your style of play, I wouldn't read too much into that comment. -

city-golden age is what's present in SMAC - if you get equal or more happy citizens than all other citizens (content + drones + specialists) in the city, it get's golden age which adds you +2 growth and +1economy-- What history has taught us is that people do not learn from history.

Basically, unless they specifically say they've actually played the game, be sceptical about everything they write, especially about the things that sound new and wonderfull.
The better it sounds, the more likely it comes from PR than the actual game
<Kassiopeia> you don't keep the virgins in your lair at a sodomising distance from your beasts or male prisoners. If you devirginised them yourself, though, that's another story. If they devirginised each other, then, I hope you had that webcam running.

It was present in Civ3, but it was so subtle it was utterly unnoticeable...I hope this will also be rectified in civ4...Originally posted by binTravkin
