As long as there are updates to improvements, that could account for a few. 3 types of mines and irrigation would be need at least.

Why do you think mills are constructed on a platform?

Because they were draining water? [/serious question]Comment

Exactly, I think that Hill restriction is uneccessary, and perhaps they have removed it since it was first touted-or perhaps its still in for Gameplay reasons. Also, historically, it has always been easier to harness windpower when your 'turbines' are in an elevated spot, so it does make a certain kind of sense when I think about it.

Windmills sure do work better when on an elevated spot. I'm living in a flat area, and some of the old (historic) mills were build on mounds.Comment

I am hoping for Dams along rivers, they should be a late game high cost improvment that gives you Hammers (electricy production), gold (selling the electricity) and food (irrigating with the water). Also they could prevent "Floods" (hypothtical disaster occuring along rivers that wipes out any improvments along that river).Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators, the creator seeks - those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest. - Thus spoke Zarathustra, Fredrick NietzscheComment

Windmills were built on platforms for two reasons.
1 - So the vanes will stay clear of the ground
2 - the platform allows the mill to turn to face the wind, taking advantage of changing wind direction.The sons of the prophet were valiant and bold,

Hills definitely should not be a requirement for windmills. Here in the Fargo area we are in one of the windiest regions in the country (even windier than Chicago), we have several wind power generators and this area is tabletop flat.Comment

Nineteen tile improvements then come in handy.
Hmm, lets see...
1. Irrigation
2. Farmland
3. Roads
4. Railroads
5. Airport
6. Fortress
7. Mining
We can pretty much assume that these are in, but what else?Comment
